In addition, foreign laws and relevant scholarly publications in both Thai and foreign languages were reviewed. The data were obtained from documentary sources and online databases. The data collected from relevant documents were analyzed using content analysis The study found that 1) Historically, society did not perceive children and youth as likely to commit crimes; therefore, specific punitive measures for them were not established. Over time, however, the increasing incidence of juvenile offenses led to the recognition of the need for appropriate sanctions. While the fundamental purpose of criminal law is to deter crime through punishment, the application of such principles must be contextualized to align with the unique values and social structures of each country. This reflects the understanding that legal systems should be tailored rather than uniformly applied across all nation 2) The punishment and criminal liability measures of Thailand and foreign countries study classified the study into four topics. In England, the United States, the Republic of France, and Japan, the similarity is considering the crimes of violence committed. The principle of intent consists of age from the United States, especially in North Carolina. The lowest age limit of 6 years can be criminalized if they commit a serious and conscientious crime and can apply criminal punishment to children and youth who commit crimes, unlike Thailand 3) Thailand places more emphasis on age than on the type or severity of the offense when determining punishment, often favoring protective rather than punitive measures and 4) It is recommended that courts consider the seriousness of the offense, repeat offending, intent and age in determining appropriate penalties.

2025-12-19T16:12:04+07:00

This research consists purposes were 1. to examine the perspectives and meanings that leaders of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMEs) attribute to corporate social responsibility (CSR) and 2. to explore decision-making patterns and CSR practices of SME leaders in Samut Sakhon Province. This study employed a qualitative research approach. The research instrument was a semi-structured interview. The target group consisted of 14 participants selected through purposive sampling.

These practices are shaped by constraints related to resources, time and organizational management systems. Nevertheless, SME leaders are able to exercise responsible leadership through flexibility, direct communication, and trust-building with local stakeholders. The findings theoretically support viewing CSR in SMEs as a context-embedded and relational process, in which responsible leadership functions as a key mechanism linking organizational systems with stakeholder engagement, with important implications for area-based SME development and policy design.

Such reforms are necessary to ensure that Thailand’s juvenile justice system aligns more closely with human rights principles and international norms.
