The Hungarian Journal of Legal Studies presents the achievements of legal and legal specialists in Hungary and details on Hungarian legislation and legal literature. The journal accepts articles from all areas of law. Recently, publishers have suggested contributions from outside Hungary, with the aim of covering the law throughout Central and Eastern Europe. The Hungarian Journal of Legal Studies also publishes book reviews. The rights of the child and related social law issues are becoming a rather complex and far-reaching agenda for the international community. The most worrying problems have arisen from the phenomena of child poverty, child labour, other forms of deprivation, global violence against children, the situation of children with disabilities or special needs in care, and the burning problems of juvenile delinquency, which requires a multidisciplinary approach that must be assessed at the theoretical and practical levels. The names and e-mail addresses entered on this journal website are used exclusively for the purposes indicated by this journal and are not made available for any other purpose or for third parties. There is no single code of children`s rights. The main source is the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, adopted in 1989. The basic principle based on the human rights approach, which has now become an undeniable paradigm, means that the child has the right to all rights as an adult, since he is a human being.
Indeed, they need special protection and support because of their particular social status and age, which must be provided by their caregivers and, ultimately, by the State, making child rights issues more understandable in a number of social and legal relationships. Because of their vulnerability and developmental capacities, and while they face obstacles to the exercise of their rights, children increasingly need more active State protection than usual. The field of children`s rights, thanks to the motivation and intensive work of active social movements, has been able to gain from the fact that today an international convention ratified by virtually all States of the world recognizes the existence and protection of children`s rights. The field of children`s rights (as it only emerged in the 1920s as the object of modern corporate and political discourse) is quite young and does not exist as an independent branch of law. Children`s rights not only concern various areas of law, including civil law, criminal law, criminology, family law or administrative law, but also go beyond constitutional and international law.
