Abstract
The article presents an analysis of international and national legislation that defines the concept of «corruption» in a differentiated way by listing the signs and types of corruption manifestations, or by clearly differentiating corruption. The authors draw attention to the fact that the Federal Law «On Combating Corruption» specifies the list of criminal offenses rather truncated, which actualizes the problem of the lack of theoretical and legal tools to combat corruption. Neither intersectoral nor sectoral criminal laws describe the complex of all illegal acts that fall under the signs of corruption. The correct classification of corruption crimes has great socio-legal, criminological and moral significance. It will eliminate possible judicial errors, and the introduction of the academic discipline «Legal foundations of anti-corruption» will contribute to the formation of a solid foundation of knowledge in combating and intolerance of corruption. At the end of the article, the authors define the term «corruption».
