The article examines the specifics of the philosophical and legal classification of crime in the conceptual positions of the theory of state and law. The categorical classification of the objects of the crime system as structured vertically and structured horizontally, which allowed distribution of crimes directly, kind, generic, general, was analyzed. It is shown that the general object of the crime is
traditionally in the conceptual positions of the theory of state and law called the whole set of social relations, which are protected by criminal law.
The generic object of the crime is a certain circle of homogeneous economic, social, political content of social relations, which, for some reason, should be protected by a single set of legal norms. It is made general that the specific object of a crime is a set of social relations within the generic object, which reflect the same interest of the participants in such relations or express though the nonidentical,
but closely interrelated interests.
The direct object of the crime is those specifically social relations, set by the legislator under the protection of a certain legal norm.
It is shown that structured horizontal objects of crime are distributed directly to the main and directly additional. It is traced that under the direct object of the crime is understood those social relations, the violation of which is the social content of the crime and for the protection of which there is a legal norm, which implies responsibility for the commission of the crime.
Under the direct additional object of the crime are those social relations, the encroachment on which does not constitute the content of the crime, but the commission of such a crime is always caused damage. It is concluded that the study of the concept of crime within the conceptual concepts of the theory of state and law is justified by the subject of its study. The fundamental questions in this context arose the problem of what exactly is the legal facts, which, depending on the result, can be classified categorically into legal,
lawful, and law-stopping. It is proved that the most important is the distribution of legal facts by their individual connection with the participants in the legal relationship. Thus, according to the categorical regularity of concepts of the theory of state and law, wrongful actions are divided, first, into offenses, that is, crimes and misdemeanors; and secondly, on objectively unlawful acts.
