Abstract

The problems of combating crime have been and remain relevant, especially taking into account the fact that the progressive development of a person, society, and the state is only possible in conditions of ensuring security. The dynamism of the development of the modern world constantly creates new challenges and risks, which requires the adoption of adequate response measures. The goal of the work is to consider the problems that arise in the fight against crime, forming the course to eliminate them, both by changing the current legislation and by adjusting the established approaches and methods. To achieve this goal, the author set tasks, in particular to identify reasons of the ineffectiveness of certain criminal legal means of affecting crime and mechanisms of implementation. Using a wide range of general scientific, private scientific and special methods, this work analyzes statistical data, legal provisions, legal institutions, materials of theoretical and empirical research. The use of a wide range of methods allowed us to focus on the problems caused by the imperfection of legislative regulation, the lack (inefficiency) of criteria and indicators for evaluating activities, potential and real risks that occur in the legal provisions (legal institutions), as well as those that arise in law enforcement practice and lead to negative consequences, to investigate the causes and conditions of occurrence, problems in the process of interaction and continuity. The results of the conducted research allowed us to formulate a number of proposals from the point of view of complexity, consistency, and coherence, to identify areas for improving legal regulation and organization of activities, in particular in terms of understanding risks in law, the ability to correctly assess emerging situations and make decisions, which should allow us to have a positive impact on the effectiveness of combating crime. In addition, the obtained results will expand the knowledge of criminal law science, issues of authorities integration into the state and society, will contribute to enhancing the quality of the criminal law and other instruments aimed at countering crime.
