Осовременивание российского уголовно-процессуального закона как жизненно важного инструмента правового регулирования

Abstract

The reason for writing the article was the date – 20 years from the date
 of entry into force of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. This
 circumstance was used as a pretext to study the current state of its scope and the limits
 of legal regulation. Against the background of some historical generalizations and mention
 of radically changed fundamental provisions, he considered the theoretical concept and
 the most significant innovations of the Russian criminal procedure legislation, thanks
 to which changes in the content and forms of law enforcement activity could occur, as
 well as positive changes in the mechanism of observance of human and civil rights and
 freedoms in criminal proceedings. The criminal procedure legislation itself is regarded
 as the expected result of many years of scientific research and painstaking legislative
 work. It has everything necessary for public recognition for many years, and recognizes
 the absence of ideological dogmas, which were saturated with its predecessors, as an
 important stylistic innovation. We believe that the Code needs to improve its wording. It
 is difficult to use it because of the many references in one article to others, the lack of
 detail of individual regulations and a number of systemic shortcomings.
