Euro-integration course of Ukraine has caused an intensive development of its banking sphere. The inconsistency between the possible legislative consolidation of criminal responsibility for socially dangerous acts in the banking sector and the objective needs of society in such protection becomes more and more obviousis in Ukraine. The processes of ‘clearing’ the banking system from financial institutions that are insolvent along with the positive results have led to an increase in the level of criminalization of the banking sector. Abuses aimed at taking possession of money from creditors and borrowers of banking institutions have become widespread. External threats to the stable functioning of the banking sector are combined with internal misconduct of unscrupulous bank managers, officials and persons related to the banks. Approaches to legislative regulation of suspicious banking transactions and to identify their real volumes must be improved. The measures aimed at reducing of the level of criminalization of the banking sphere by establishing criminal liability of managers and persons connected with the bank for unlawful acts in the banking sector must be taken. The certain issues of legal regulation of banking activity in Ukraine on criminal legal level are considered. The provisions of international law on these matters are  analyzed and the main ways to optimize Ukranian criminal legislation to ensure the safety of banking activity are suggested. It turns out that the need for criminal legal protection of banking is conditoned by an increase in the public danger of these acts at the present stage of the functioning of society. This need is also confirmed by the crisis in the financial and banking spheres of the state, the need to eliminate the gaps in the current legislation on banking safety and the changes that took place in the banking sector of Ukraine in the context of increased integration with the EU.

The international illegal trade of rare flora and fauna objects has long been an acute international issue. At the same time, a significant volume of smuggled rare species of animals and plants falls on Russian Federation. In order to counter criminal encroachments against rare and endangered species of animals and aquatic biological resources, amendments were made to the Russian criminal legislation, including Article 226.1. of Criminal Code of Russian Federation, in accordance with which criminal liability is established for the smuggling of especially valuable wild animals and aquatic biological resources listed in the Red Book of Russian Federation and (or) protected by international treaties of Russian Federation. At the same time, the imperfection of legal norms governing liability for smuggling significantly reduces the level of their protection. These circumstances require constant improvement of measures to counter smuggling, including criminal law improvement.

The article is devoted to the necessary defense as a circumstance that precludes the criminality of an act in the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation. The significance and importance of the existence of this norm is proclaimed both in the criminal law and in the Basic law of the state – the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The existence of a rule on necessary defense in the state emphasizes the development of its legal system, allowing citizens to defend their own interests and protect the interests of others, in ways not prohibited by law, thereby preventing exceeding the limits of necessary defense. A number of issues related to the application of the norms provided for in article 37 of the Criminal code of Russia, as well as the norms of the Special part of the Criminal code of Russia, which provide for liability for crimes committed when exceeding the limits of necessary defense, were raised. The study of the relevant norms makes it possible to identify the advantages and disadvantages of legal regulation of circumstances that exclude the criminality of an act, including the shortcomings of judicial and investigative practice. The author criticizes the existing approach and suggests ways to resolve these problems, including by correcting the resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated September 27, 2012, № 19 «About application by courts of legislation on necessary defense and causing harm when detaining a person who has committed a crime». Because of the ambiguous and often inconsistent application of norms of the criminal legislation on necessary defense, the authors give the recommendations (in further reconstruction of the relevant provisions of article 37 of the Criminal Code) to use an enumeration approach of presenting the legal formulation of these rules that allow the defender to cause any harm to an attacker. At the same time, it creates the most understandable, for citizens, formulation of the norm that allows lawfully causing harm to public relations protected by criminal law.

The analysis of certain points of the criminal legislation of the foreign countries, which provide protection of labour rights, freedoms and social interests, is made in the paper with the help of comparative legal analysis. Despite the quite wide legal regulation of labour relations in all countries in the world, the special criminal law protection of labour rights has remained a feature of "eastern" countries of the continental family of law mainly, the so-called post-socialist family of law. The analysis of criminal legislation of foreign countries regarding criminalization of the violation of labour rights of a person is conducted in the paper. Comparative-legal analysis allows defining general approaches to formation of labour rights of employees, including in the sphere of contractual relationship. The most similar and corresponding to the national criminal legislature are the Criminal codes of Spain an Polish Republic, which establish criminal liability for violation of not only labour legislation in force, but also conditions of individual labour acts (agreements, contracts etc.). It is stated in the text that the protection of labour rights in the modern legislation of foreign countries often has fragmentary, unsystematic nature. The violation of labour safety rules is most often regulated in the criminal legislation of foreign countries. Other types of violation of the labour legislation are regulated with arbitration under administrative or civil legislation. The drawbacks of the fatherland`s legislation are mentioned and the main positive improvements in this sphere after adoption of the Criminal Code of Ukraine in 2001 are emphasized. It was made the conclusion that the list of crimes against labour rights, which are provided by modern criminal legislations, is strong enough and has specific features. The list mentioned above could be the target for improving Ukrainian criminal legislation in certain cases. Therewith it is important to remember that formation of the legislation in the sphere of the protection of labour rights, freedoms and social interests directly depends on the development of the regulatory legislation. It is the clarity and certainty of blanket norms that will become the fundamental basis for the formation of effective criminal law protection of labour rights, freedoms and interests.

The subject of the study is the criminal responsibility of minors as an independent institution of criminal law. The purpose of the analysis is to reveal the peculiarities of bringing a person to criminal liability. The methodology of the study is based on a combination of formal legal and comparative legal analysis, which made it possible to establish criteria for assessing the age of criminal responsibility. The main results of the study contain conclusions on the achievement of a certain age by a person as one of the necessary conditions for recognizing a crime as a subject. The specifics of the criminal liability of minors are due to the age and socio-psychological characteristics of this group of persons, the incompleteness of the formation of their personality, the best receptivity to punitive and educational measures. Taking into account the characteristics of a minor acquires special significance when choosing the necessary measure of a criminally-legal, educational nature. The chosen measure of impact with minimal costs of criminal repression should give a warning effect.

the article describes the circumstances excluding criminality of the act in the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation in comparison with the corresponding Chapter of the criminal law of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. A comparative analysis of the content of the norms regulating lawful harm is made. A number of issues related to the use of weapons by law enforcement officials in Russia and Vietnam were raised. Using the comparative method, the authors try to investigate the relevant norms, identify the advantages and disadvantages of legal regulation of circumstances that exclude the criminality of an act. note that the authors are in the position of expanding the range of circumstances that exclude the criminality of the act, which are subject to normative consolidation in the criminal legislation. Moreover, in view of the ambiguous and often inconsistent practice of applying criminal legislation in this area, it is proposed that in the further reconstruction of the relevant norms of Chapter 8 of the criminal code, use a casual way of presentation to create the most understandable for citizens wording of norms that allow lawfully cause harm to public relations protected by criminal law. Otherwise, the very fact of their existence in criminal legislation is called into question because of the inability and unwillingness of citizens to use the right granted by law. Possible ways of resolving contradictions in the criminal legislation of Russia and Vietnam are suggested.

The article provides a comparative analysis of the legal measures to combat discrimination in the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Moldova. Such a problem as regulation in the criminal law of antidiscrimination is active a large scale. In the Russian criminal legislation important legal guarantee the constitutional principle of equal rights and antidiscrimination is article 136 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (Violation of equality of rights and freedoms of man and citizen). Meantime, as illustration the analysis of international antidiscrimination standards and trends to expand of these prescriptions in the legislation of CIS states, this criminal norm is far from perfect. The liability for discrimination can not be treated in direction with the commission of using official position. In our view, preventive legal prohibition in the article 136 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation will be significantly enhanced if to ask: 1) the return of criminal liability for discrimination of any individuals; 2) criminalization new aggravating circumstances.
