    Authors: Huikuri, Salla;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2019)

I use mixed methods including statistics and analysis of case studies. Research findings indicate that Vietnams laws firmly state the right to defence of juvenile offenders but lack specific guarantees for appropriate legal support and protection of privacy.
