Abstract

The crime of begging is spreading rapidly in most societies, especially in developing countries, where this crime has become a negative and dangerous impact on the social, economic and cultural levels. The reasons associated with this crime are many and varied, some of which may be due to the individual himself, in addition to the factors that affect society. Accordingly, our study deals with the topic of "the legal organization of the crime of child begging in the light of Iraqi and comparative legislation", especially since the category of children is characterized by its special and vulnerable nature, in addition to the fact that the impact of this crime is increasing in seriousness in light of modern technological and technological developments. In light of these challenges and in view of the importance of the child who enjoys protection and care in the majority of societies, many positive legislations have resorted to working to draw a legal structure that suits the special nature of the child "juvenile", by deciding reform measures that suit each juvenile individually and according to his circumstances and personality, which was followed by Iraqi legislation. The study raises the problem of combating begging crimes committed by children, because it deals with many legal, social and psychological aspects, in addition to preventive and precautionary measures, as well as demonstrating the ability of Iraqi legislation to confront. Our study was divided into two topics; we dealt in the first with the crime of child begging, and in the second we dealt with the elements of the crime of child begging and its penalties.
