Abstract

We consider latent crime issues. We analyze certain types of latent crime, how to classify them, methods for analyzing types of latent crime, and policies to combat them. The relevance of the problem is determined by the need to develop a generally accepted idea of the concept and objects of both latent crime in general and its individual types. Modern programs and plans to combat crime, most commonly, do not provide for measures and methods aimed at preventing the latency of certain categories and types of crimes. Consequently, the subject of research is the criminological aspects of latent crime. We point out that a justified classification of latent crime is a classification according to which latency is divided into natural, artificial and also latency of borderline situations. We also note that the key criminological problem is not the complete eradication of latent crime, but the possibility of knowing it. In order to effectively counter latent crime, it is necessary to take measures to measure its level most accurately. In addition, we establish that the study of latent crime is not an insoluble problem, the insufficient elaboration of this problem is the result of the fact that the state is not ready to allocate the necessary amount of resources to resolve this issue.
