Sažetak
Sexual exploitation of children is one of the most serious acts to the detriment of children, leaving severe consequences on the victims. The accelerated development of modern technologies and the growth of Internet users in all age groups enables online perpetrators easier access and communication with selected victims, but also interconnection and participation in the production and distribution of materials depicting the sexual exploitation of children. This new dimension of illegal treatment to the detriment of children requires modern and multidisciplinary approaches as well as the involvement of various experts in its suppression and prevention. This paper aims to present the current knowledge in the field of sexual exploitation of children on the Internet. The paper includes a brief historical overview of the exploitation of children for pornographic purposes, but also contemporary approaches to defining this phenomenon given the prevalence of modern technologies. The paper also presents available statistical indicators that enable the monitoring of trends in the field of sexual exploitation of children on the Internet with a particular focus on juvenile perpetrators of these crimes. An overview of scientific knowledge in the field of sexual exploitation of children on the Internet with an overview of the current provisions of the Criminal Code and statistical indicators on the perpetrators of these crimes can be useful to practitioners working in the field of protection of children from sexual victimization.
