Abstract

The article studies the actions of prosecutors, prescribed by and carried out according to law. These actions are aimed at firstly, to bring information to particular bodies about the state of law and order in the respective territory and the results of the strengthening them and secondly, to raise the level of legal literacy and legal culture among citizens, officials and other persons and achieve a reduction in the level of their legal nihilism. It is noted that in the scientific literature these actions are referred to as “non-supervisory nonprocedural, or public awareness tools of prosecutor’s response”. The subject of the research is the materials of the prosecutor's practice, as well as the current statutory provisions of the Russian Federation. The insufficient status of the essence of the public awareness tools of the prosecutor’s response in science is emphasized. A distinction between them and other tools (mainly acts) of the prosecutor's response is made. Based on examples in the modern practice of various prosecutors in the Russian Federation, the authors outlined the role of the legal means of the prosecutor in the warning and prevention of possible violations of laws, including crimes and their causes, as well as possible violations of human and civil rights and freedoms.
