LOPEZ BETANCOURT, Eduardo e FONSECA LUJAN, Roberto Carlos. Deprivation of liberty in the justice system for adolescents in the Federal District of Mexico. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2014, vol.56, n.3, pp.69-86. ISSN 1794-3108.
The use of pre-trial detention is being examined along with internment measures within the juvenile justice systems in Mexico City, during its first operating years (2009-2013). Apart from discussing the regulatory framework and describing the organic structure in charge of the application of any such measures, the text analyzes the observance, in institutional practice, of the exceptionality principle governing the deprivation of liberty. It concludes with a statement in favor of the construction of a system of justice for adolescents, with educational overtones, designed to gradually replace the way of confinement since this response is incompatible with the social and family reinsertion of juvenile offenders.
