Abstract
The article based on the analysis of some works by V.N. Kudryavtsev considers the provisions of the theory of causality in criminal law and aspects of causation as constituent element of offence. The evolution of the scien-tist's views on some problems of the concept of causality is studied. A fair criticism of the theory of necessary condition is presented, including on the basis of legal and philosophical concepts, and the position of support-ers of the exclusion of randomness from causation is examined. It is emphasized that while a reasonable and justified criticism of the theory of necessary condition is still not resolved the question of the limits of random-ness, the meaning and correlation of causal and functional relationships. The positive aspects of theoretical views of V.N. Kudryavtsev distinguishes and describes the characteristic features of his own reflections con-cerning the establishment of causal connection in criminal omission.
