Понятия и система уголовно-правовых последствий совершения преступления

Abstract

A significant problem of modern criminal law science is the definition of its fundamental categories to which the “criminal and legal consequences” category belongs. The theme of criminal and legal consequences of committing a crime is still weakly developed. Nevertheless, the content of almost all theoretical constructions associated with criminal and legal measures, criminal punishment and criminal liability depends on its solution. The author suggests his idea of the system of criminal and legal consequences based on the system interpretation of law and formal and logical analysis of criminal law norms. The system comprises: a) consequences of commission of a crime such as discharges and implementation of criminal liability; consequences of commission of other criminal and related acts and appearing of criminal and relevant events that influence correction of the legal status of the individual having committed a crime.
 The starting point in the development of the system appeared to be understanding of the terms «crime» and «consequence» in the context of criminal and legal relations theory and legal factors of criminal law. It is also noted that the system of criminal and legal consequences of crime commission can be viewed as a part of the consequence crime commission system which includes both actually legal and extra-legal consequences.
