Prevention Of Crime

Sport policy is a purposeful activity of various subjects connected with organizing and holding sports competitions. Such activity may be state-organized, administrative, financial, commercial, engineering and construction-related, military, security, professional, corporate, training, entertainment, relatively mass-scale, agent, referee, qualifying, and others. It should be taken into account that, besides officially recognized sports, there are also illegal competitions. Criminological aspects, connected with the possibility of crime, can be found everywhere. All of these leads to the necessity of establishing and developing sport criminology as a component of sport policy. Criminological aspects of sport policy are especially evident in the market conditions. Their analysis is necessary for the optimization of preventive work in the most important areas. The authors single out three such areas: criminal law prevention of crime in sports, enforcement of prevention policy for criminal and criminogenic sports, and counteracting sport extremism. The effectiveness of work in the first area is close to zero because special «sport» criminal law norms are not and will not be enforced. The analysis of the second area leads the authors to the conclusion that it is necessary to intensify the counteraction to criminal sports, primarily, dog fighting and street racing. As for the criminogenic sports, they can be conditionally broken into two categories: those promoting violence and cruelty, and those equipping athletes with the skills interesting for the criminal community (organized criminal groups). The first category includes MMA-type female fights. This disgusting spectacle, broadcast on TV, is absolutely contrary both to the female nature and to the traditional values of peoples of Russia. Such fights should be prohibited in the Russian Federation. The third area requires monitoring to prevent fans’ movements from turning into extremist organizations. The promotion of patriotic feelings among fans should be recognized as a strategic direction in the prevention of sport extremism.

Prevention Of Crime

The sharp contrast between the vast number of detailed statutory provisions defining particular offences and the small handful of widely phrased provisions concerned with the general principles of criminal liability is, perhaps, the most striking feature of English criminal law, and, like the continued co-existence of both common law and statutory offences, one of the unhappy consequences of England's failure to enact a penal code. Among the few statutory provisions laying down general principles of liability or excuse there is none which comprehends a defence of necessity, and so commentators have inevitably looked to the case law for an answer to the question: Is there in English criminal law a defence of necessity? by which they have meant: Is there a defence of necessity in the sense in which there is a defence of, for instance, insanity, or infancy, or duress or prevention of crime? To the question understood in that sense, the answer returned must, it is thought, be a plain No. To ask and to answer the question in that sense may, however, be misleading: it may be more revealing (as this paper suggests) to ask, How does English law handle the plea of necessity when it arises? What, in other words, is the juristic technique employed?

This article critically examines the extent to which the European Public Prosecutor’s Office can be claimed to constitute a prime example of supranational criminal law. The article observes that among policymakers and commentators, the Office appears to be a hallmark of the transformation of EU criminal law from an intergovernmental paradigm to a strong federal and supranational polity. The article discusses the scope, nature and limits to the powers of the European Public Prosecutor’s Office, as well as its operating structure in light of Article 86 TFEU and the recently adopted EPPO Regulation. It departs from the basic assumption that the EPPO stands in the midst of supranationalism and intergovernmentalism. Whilst the EPPO is envisaged to be independent of the Member States, the Office’s complicated, multifaceted and vertical structure means that Member States are able to direct, to some extent, its activities. The article argues, however, that a general assessment of the Office’s operational and strategic direction (where its operational activities are managed and supervised by centralized ‘European’ prosecutors), and the type (direct criminal enforcement powers) of powers it has makes it distinctive as the most ‘integrated’ and ‘supranational’ EU agency.

The article provides a scientific analysis of theoretical and practical problems that exist when implementing the criminal-legal policy of the state in the field of the protection of military security of Ukraine. Taking into account the existing challenges and threats facing the Ukrainian, sovereign, democratic state, and before the whole civilizedworld today, the place, tasks and goals of the criminal-legal policy of the state are determined, its role in the sphere of military security of Ukraine is comprehended. The work focuses on the concept and essence of criminal-law policy, clarifies its place and role in the state in counteracting the socially dangerous acts of the present. Attention is drawn to the fact that the state policy in the sphere of counteracting crime, which is being conducted now in Ukraine, should be developed taking into account new scientific developments, theoretical and practical recommendations of scientists, first of all, lawyers. The absence of a holistic, modern concept of the criminal-law policy of the state, as well as the development of the national legislation on criminal liability, leads to inconsistencies and inconsistencies with certain norms of the criminal legislation of Ukraine and other subordinate normative legal acts, including the Basic Law - the Constitution of Ukraine, which, in its turn, entails significant problems in the activity of law enforcement agencies of Ukraine.

The Article 1 of the Constitution of Ukraine regulates: Ukraine is a sovereign and independent, democratic, social, legal state. One of the destabilizing factors in building the rule of law is the commission of criminal offenses by organized criminal groups. Due to the changes in the criminal legislation during the last two years, the criminal law norms have undergone significant changes, which directly or indirectly affect the qualification of criminal offenses committed by organized criminal groups. Given the changes in criminal law, the qualification of criminal offenses committed by organized criminal groups requires uniform systemic approaches, primarily at the level of judicial law enforcement practice. The formation of the Ukrainian legal doctrine on the qualification of criminal offenses committed by organized criminal groups is one of the significant auxiliary guidelines in the formation of such law enforcement practice. To achieve this goal and the defined objectives, the following methods were applied in the study: logical and normative – for the analysis of criminal law on the qualification of criminal offenses committed by organized criminal groups; system analysis – when considering judicial law enforcement practice (first of all, the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court of Ukraine) of the qualification of criminal offenses committed by organized criminal groups. The legislation strengthens criminal liability for criminal offenses by organized criminal groups, in particular, as evidenced by the amendments to the Criminal Code under the Law of Ukraine "On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of Ukraine on Liability for Crimes Committed by the Criminal Community" dated by the 4th of June 2020. Before the formation of new approaches to the doctrine of criminal law and law enforcement judicial practice on the qualification of criminal offenses (crimes), a specific part of which is provided by h.ch. 1-5 art. 255 of the Criminal Code, the indirect reference is the provision of the resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of Ukraine of December 23, 2005 №12 "On the practice of consideration by courts of criminal cases on crimes committed by stable criminal groups." Keywords: criminal offenses, criminal community, criminal organization, organized group, creation of a criminal community, leadership of a criminal community, organized criminal groups.

All over the world crime is becoming more and more organized. Globalization has considerably extended the area of criminal activities, it can no longer be contained within the national boundaries of one state. Crime bosses freely travel between countries and may solve the problems of their gangs’ cooperation far from the place where the criminal activity takes place. The gangs today have moved away from typical criminal practices. Business is becoming their key activity as it facilitates the organization of criminal groups not only in the shadow, but also in the legal economy. Thus, the main focus of crime counteraction should be the bosses of organized crime. Based on this position, the authors provide a theoretical basis for the introduction of Art. 210.1 in the Criminal Law of Russia — taking the highest position in the criminal hierarchy. They analyze the legal construction of this offence which, in essence, is inchoate. The authors also assess the grounds for criminalizing the very fact of occupying the highest position in a criminal hierarchy. It is proven that this status of a crime boss emerges at an advanced stage of development of the organized group, so the form of crime organization could act as a criterion for the establishment of such a status. The authors also examine some problems of enforcing Art. 210.1 of the Criminal Code and offer different ways of solving them, namely, the aggregate of Part 4, Art. 210 and Art. 210.1 of the CC, and the and specific features of penalizing offenders persecuted under Art. 210.1 and Part 4, Art. 210 of the CC of the Russian Federation.
