Resumen
This paper is concerned with questioning the definition that make the laws, 782, 2002 and 1448, 2011 children and adolescents as victims of political violence with the firm purpose to explain and argue such a position where it comes from and why it is urgent to understand and apply. This, travels the social, political and legal factors that prompted the recognition of veterans childhoods as victims of war and generates an argument for this view as opposed recognition that may be made of them under retributivists valuations that read as victimizers and attributable to the criminal law.
