Anti-corruption activities of the Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation: state and prospects of development

Abstract

The anti-corruption activities of the Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation today are one of the priorities in the state-political structure. In the context of global financial crises and pandemics, sectoral sanctions, the modernization of corruption mechanisms is noted, which has led to the attention of the state, public institutions, and the scientific community to this phenomenon. In the proposed publication, the author analyzes and shows the role of the Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation in ensuring the legal regime against corruption. As a result of the conducted research, taking into account the scale of the work carried out by the prosecutor’s office to combat corruption, it is proposed to support the idea of creating a separate public authority endowed with exclusive competence to combat corruption and prevent corruption relations in public administration — to form a specialized prosecutor’s office to combat corruption, whose competence would include issues related to countering corruption in those areas that are most susceptible to corruption risks.
