The purpose of this work is to give a brief analysis of the legal status of spiritual Christians Molokans in the Russian Empire, following the dynamics of state legal regulation. The problem of the individual sectarian groups status remains little studied in both domestic and foreign literature, which determines its relevance. We use the following research methods: chronological, problem and analytical. We analyze the norms of administrative and criminal law in force in the 19th - early 20th centuries in the Russian Empire, which regulate the rights and obligations of subjects assigned to the Molokan sect. The analysis showed that the legal impact of the state on the Molokans was repressive and causal throughout most of the studied period. Only the reign of Alexander I was marked by a loyal attitude towards sectarians. After the revolutionary events of 1905, a number of civil and religious freedoms were granted to the Molokans, however, one cannot speak of the religious equality of all subjects during this period. After 1905, specialized acts were passed regulating the procedure for registering communities, holding conventions, organizing religious education, and other areas of public relations.

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.

Elimination, neutralization or restriction of the social preconditions of corruption requires systemic changes in the main spheres of social life, first of all in the functioning of public authorities. Because corruption is a phenomenon associated with the abuse of certain opportunities provided by certain posts or official position of persons authorized to perform state functions, it is traditionally believed that anti-corruption measures should be aimed primarily at such persons. Public confidence and public accountability play an important role in preventing corruption. Preventing and combating corruption cannot be effective without preventive measures in the public sector, an area where those authorized to represent the state perform their professional duties. UN anti-corruption standards in the public sphere provide for the implementation of a set of measures aimed at preventing the commission of corruption offenses. These are, first of all, the require-ments for public officials to carry out their activities on an ethical basis, which can be established in special codes of conduct that help persons performing public functions to choose the right course of action in a situation where there is a high risk of corruption.

The aim: To study the legal and regulatory framework for ensuring the right to health of patients depending on the legal status of coronavirus vaccines in different countries as an essential element influencing the right to public health and other rights of citizens. Materials and methods: In this paper, we study the legal norms and scientific positions on the above issue using generalized information from scientific journals that use scientific methods from a medical and legal point of view. This article is based on dialectical, comparative, analytical, synthetic, and complex research methods. Using the above methods, we studied the attitudes of different categories of citizens to vaccination against coronavirus disease through questionnaires on the following issues: attitudes to vaccination in general; motivation for vaccination, in case of consent to vaccination; reasons for refusal of vaccination. The case-law of the European Court of Human Rights on vaccination and ensuring the rights of citizens to health care was also analyzed. Results: Proper legal regulation of the right to health depending on the legal status of the vaccines is important in order to implement restrictive measures to combat COVID-19 and, accordingly, to prevent the possible spread of a pandemic in the public health system. Conclusions: Ensuring the right to health and applying restrictive measures to prevent the spread of a pandemic is an essential element of the public health system. However, the question of the legal status of vaccines is crucial to prevent the spread of the disease. That is, it is essential to go through all the stages of clinical trials for the vaccines used. Their safety and effectiveness and proving the fact that the harm of vaccination is much less than the harm of the spread of coronavirus disease. In the process of ensuring the right to health, including by making compulsory vaccination against COVID-19, legal framework and practice are critical components that aim to minimize the potential hazards that threaten the health and lives of the population.

Statement of a problem. The design of abuse of law, first developed for the sphere of private law, was further transferred to the sphere of public law. But this does not make it possible to equate abuse of law in private and public relations. There is a fundamental difference between them due to the nature of the regulated relations, the specificity of the methods of legal regulation. The process of shaping and developing perceptions of the possibility of abuse of rights in the field of taxation has gone through a complex, contradictory path of development. Initially, the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation effectively recognized that the category «abuse of the right» did not apply to taxpayers. However, the need to find a balance between public and private interests required the development of fundamentally new approaches, naturally derived from the content of general and special principles of tax law. The aim and objectives of the study is to carry out a systematic analysis of the peculiarities of taxpayers» abuse of their subjective rights. Methods. Methods of knowledge of legal reality are used general (dialectic), general scientific (the analysis, synthesis, classification, generalization, the description) and private and scientific (legallistic, interpretation methods) when carrying out a research. Conclusions. Abuse of tax law is a particular form of tax offences. Unlike the offences of the classical kind, its wrongfulness, the public danger is veiled as the subject tries to take his behavior into legal form. Abuse of the law in the field of taxation is an illegal socially dangerous act of the taxpayer, in the sense that the person, based solely on his own interests, deliberately goes beyond the limits of a legally defined measure of possible behavior, while unduly reducing the measure of his proper behavior and the measure of possible behavior of other participants in tax legal relations. The courts, given the nature of the abuse committed, may deny a person the protection of his subjective right in whole or in part; Oblige a person to comply with his or her tax obligation; To decide on compensation for the damage caused to the public interest in the form of an accrual and recovery of penalties for late payment of fiscal payments and tax sanctions – fines for improper performance of public legal obligations in the field of taxation.

The article states that today the issues of the role (purpose) of criminal law, the structure of criminal law knowledge remain debatable. And at this time, questions arise: whose interests are protected by criminal law, is it able to ensure social justice, including the proportionality of the responsibility of the individual and the state for criminally illegal actions? The purpose of the article is to comprehend the problems of criminal law knowledge about the phenomena that shape the purpose of criminal law as a fair regulator of public relations, aimed primarily at restoring social justice for the victim, suspect (accused), society and the state, the proportionality of punishment and states for criminally illegal acts. The concepts of “crime” and “punishment” are discussed in science. As a result, there is no increase in knowledge, but an increase in its volume due to new definitions of existing criminal law phenomena. It is stated that the science of criminal law has not been able to explain the need for the concept of criminal law, as the role and name of this area is leveled to the framework terminology, which currently contains the categories of crime and punishment. Sometimes it is not even unreasonable to think that criminal law as an independent and meaningful concept does not exist or has not yet appeared. There was a custom to characterize this right as something derived from the main and most important branches of law, the criminal law of the rules of subsidiary and ancillary nature. Scholars do not consider criminal law, for example, as the right to self-defense. Although the right to self-defense is paramount and must first be guaranteed to a person who is almost always left alone with the offender, it is the least represented in law, developed in practice and available to criminal law subjects. Today, for example, there are no clear rules for the necessary protection of property rights or human freedoms. It is concluded that the science of criminal law should develop knowledge that will reveal not only the content of the subject of this branch of law, but will focus it on new properties to determine the illegality of acts and their consequences, exclude the possibility of using its means by legal entities against each other.
