Abstract
The article analyzes the crime rate in the Russian Federation, including the Yaroslavl region. The author carried out a sociological study, within the framework of which a selective analysis of the implementation of the Safe city program in cities in the Russian Federation was carried out. In addition, a survey of students was carried out in 2018–2019 and a series of in-depth interviews with positional experts were conducted. A series of in-depth interviews with students were carried out: the faculty of law of Yaroslavl state university, the faculty of social and political sciences from Yaroslavl state university, pedagogical specialties from Yaroslavl state pedagogical university. It is concluded that the fight against crime will be more effective in comparison with the existing practice if the following conditions are met: purposeful increase in the degree of protection of citizens and infrastructure of cities and rural areas; full-scale implementation of information and communication technologies to control closed (markets, museums, etc.) and open (squares, parks, etc.) territories; development of basic information systems and resources, formation of technical and organizational foundations for further digital transformation of cities and rural areas; active participation of citizens in the life of society and in decision-making on the digitalization of urban space. The author's selective analysis of the implementation of the Safe city program in cities in the Russian Federation showed that the program is designed to reduce the number of offenses and especially dangerous crimes. In addition, this program provides for the solution of issues related to the migration aspect, with the need to reduce the risks caused by man-made and natural disasters and is aimed at identifying the potential danger of objects left in public places. As part of the study, a content analysis of the blogosphere was also carried out, a secondary analysis of publications of research results carried out by scientists from the Federal research center of the Russian academy of sciences (Moscow), was carried out. Based on the results of the study, measures are proposed to reduce crime in cities.
