dc.description.abstractExposure of children to sexual abuse and exploitation is one of the most prevalent forms of criminal offenses against sexual freedom committed against persons below the age of 18 years. Bearing in mind that the prohibition of child sexual abuse and exploitation is recognized not only at the international and European level but also at the national level, the paper deals with the criminal law aspects related to this topic. In that regard, the paper provides an analysis of the relevant provisions concerning offences related to sexual abuse and exploitation at the level of the UN, the Council of Europe, the European Union and the Republic of Serbia. In that context, special attention is dedicated to the phenomenological analysis of the manifested forms of child sexual abuse and exploitation. The paper concludes that although the danger of child sexual abuse and exploitation for the proper development of children has already been recognized, in practice it is still noticed that there is an insufficient implementation of the adopted framework. Therefore, it is suggested that, in the context of its prevention, the most effective means is the early identification of sexual abuse and exploitation cases, thus avoiding the exposure of child victims to harmful consequences.en_US
