摘要：Children are a special category of civilians that are affected by armed conflict and that should enjoy special protection. This protection is manifested in a series of general regulations on the protection of civilians not taking a direct part in hostilities, many of whom are children. Another form of protection is guaranteed by special regulations envisaged by a series of international documents dedicated solely to the protection of children. Both Protocols Additional to the Geneva Convention of 1949, the Convention on the Rights of the Child, Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child which are binding for the states who have accepted them aim at improving the status of children and limit their participation in hostilities. One of the most recent phenomena in modern armed conflicts is the conscription of children in armed forces. Therefore the Security Council has passed several resolutions in the last decade dedicated to the position of children in armed conflict, issues of demobilization and re-integration of child-soldiers, with constant expressions of concern because of the increased number of child refugees and displaced persons all around the world.
