Научные теории выявления и раскрытия преступлений

Abstract

Operational-investigative activity (hereinafter — ORD) rightfully occupies one of the leading places in the fight against crime, especially with its hidden, non-obvious forms. The main content of the practical OSA is the processes of detecting and solving crimes, documenting criminal activities. In turn, the main task of the theory of ORD is the scientific support of the practical activity of the same name. This manifests the dialectical relationship between operational-search theory and practice. Within the framework of the presented article, an attempt was made to consider scientific approaches to the formation of the theoretical foundations for detecting and solving crimes, including through the prism of the achievements of a related legal discipline — forensic science. Also identified are the existing scientific problems that lie in this plane, including those related to the possibility and expediency of forming a unified general theory of detection and disclosure of crimes, as well as the development of operational-search methods for combating crime.
