It pursues as an aim to provoke reflections around those who have the responsi­bility to make effective the protection of the children, supporting us in the science of the victimology and responsibility of the prosecutor as the maximum vigilante of the legality, from the perspective of the substantive and adjective penal law representative of the state power of Cuba, for which the training and development of children have special protection. It considers theoretical and doctrinal aspects of criminal law. In addition, it deals with the treatment of children in the penal system.
