The article is devoted to legislative and law enforcement problems of sentencing minors as special subjects of criminal law relations. In this aspect, to a certain extent, the essential socio-psychological characteristics of the considered category of convicts are analyzed in detail, related to their position dependent on society and incomplete formation of intellectual and volitional qualities. These circumstances assume that they are taken into account while observing the principles of justice and humanism, which make it possible to ensure the proportionality of the measure of criminal law enforcement, the nature and degree of public danger of the crime, the identity of the perpetrator, as well as security from criminal infection and secondary victimization. Special consideration should be given to the characteristics of the perpetrator’s personality, as well as the significance of the sentence imposed for age-related socialization and crime prevention. It is concluded that the orientation of the law enforcement officer to impose punishment that is not associated with isolation from society should be supported by other criminal law institutions that are specially modified for this category of persons.

ABSTRACTThe criminal law that has been used as one of the means to eridicate crime is built on a retributive paradigm, so its repressive and coercive nature dominates. Based on the retributive paradigm, crime prevention is the sole authority of the law enforcement apparatus. Crime prevention based on the retributive paradigm is also offender oriented. Unlike the retributive paradigm, the paradigm of restorative justice offers another way of dealing with crime. In the retributive paradigm of justice, the sanction imposed does not aim to take revenge on the perpetrators of crime but rather sanctions that can arouse the perpetrator's responsibility for the suffering of the victim or sanction aimed at restoring the suffering of the victim. According to the paradigm of restorative justice, the process of solving crimes is done by involving perpetrators, victims and the community. Keywords: crime prevention, criminal law, retributive, restorative justice. INTISARIHukum pidana yang selama ini dipakai sebagai salah satu sarana untuk menangulangi kejahatan dibangun atas dasar paradigma retributif, sehingga sifatnya yang represif dan koersif begitu mendominasi. Berdasar paradigma retributif, penanggulangan kejahatan merupakan kewenangan tunggal aparat penegak hukum. Penanggulangan kejahatan berdasar paradigma retributif juga bersifat offender oriented. Berbeda dengan paradigma retributif, paradigma keadilan restoratif menawarkan cara lain dalam menanggulangi kejahatan. Dalam paradigma keadilan retributif, sanksi yang dijatuhkan tidak bertujuan untuk melakukan pembalasan terhadap pelaku kejahatan melainkan sanksi yang dapat menggugah tanggung jawab pelaku terhadap penderitaan korban atau sanksi yang bertujuan untuk memulihkan penderitaan korban. Menurut paradigma keadilan restoratif, proses penyelesaian kejahatan dilakukan dengan cara melibatkan  pelaku, korban dan masyarakat. Kata kunci: Penanggulangan kejahatan, hukum pidana, retributif, keadilan restoratif.

The article deals with the problems of law enforcement in the group of malfeasances. Official crimes are most dangerous due to the fact that they undermine the prestige of the authorities and directly violate the rights and legitimate interests of citizens and organizations. In this regard the legislator has established criminal liability for officials who abuse their functional duties. In particular the author studies the problems of qualification arising in the legal assessment of crimes enshrined in Ch. 30 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, due to the highest level of their blanketness and evaluativeness. Examples of judicial and investigative practice on competition issues of general and special rules are given. Difficulties are revealed in the legal assessment of the actions of officials when determining the signs of abuse of office, enshrined in Art. 286 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Arguments are presented that are a clear demonstration of the fact that the solution to the identified problems of applying the norms of the criminal law lies in the plane of reducing the level of conflict of laws of criminal legislation. Practical proposals are being made to include amendments to the Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated 09.07.2013 No. 24 “On judicial practice in cases of bribery and other corruption crimes” (clause 12.1) and Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated 16.10.2009 No. 19 “On judicial practice in cases of abuse of office and abuse of office” (p. 21.1). The solution of the stated problems in the field of application of the norms of the criminal law consists in the development of a uniform practice of application of the norms of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, reduction of the level of gaps in criminal legislation, the development of methodological and scientific recommendations with the participation of law enforcement officials and scientists, the preparation of draft laws and plenums of the Supreme Court aimed at elimination of gaps and gaps.
