Review

This study, "Tinjauan Kriminologi Terhadap Tindak Pidana Penyerangan Menggunakan Senjata Tajam yang Dilakukan Oleh Anak" (A Criminological Review of Assaults Using Sharp Weapons Committed by Children), addresses a critical issue of juvenile delinquency in Sumbawa Regency. The authors set out to identify the underlying factors contributing to sharp weapon assaults by children and to examine the response mechanisms employed by law enforcement. Given the pervasive challenges of youth violence, research that delves into specific regional contexts and offers insights into both causation and intervention is highly relevant and timely for policymakers and social practitioners. The methodology adopted is an empirical legal approach, which is appropriate for investigating real-world phenomena and legal responses. The integration of three distinct analytical perspectives—statutory, conceptual, and sociological—provides a robust framework for a comprehensive understanding. The qualitative descriptive analysis method is well-suited for exploring the nuanced factors at play. The research successfully identifies several key causal factors, including issues of attachment, psychological aspects, religious influence, a negative social environment, and a notable lack of effective socialization and educational efforts regarding the dangers of sharp weapons. Furthermore, the study outlines law enforcement's counter-measures, categorizing them into both penal and non-penal efforts. Overall, this research makes a valuable contribution by shedding light on a complex issue within a specific Indonesian context. Its empirical nature and multi-dimensional analysis of causal factors—ranging from individual psychological states to broader social and environmental influences—offer practical insights for prevention and intervention strategies. The identification of both penal and non-penal law enforcement efforts provides a holistic view of the current response landscape. This paper is a relevant resource for academics in criminology and legal studies, as well as for professionals involved in juvenile justice, social work, and community development aiming to curb youth violence.
