Abstract
The article discusses the question of the advisability of introducing the concept of “criminalistic technology” into the scientific criminalistic discourse. Technology is the main driving force of modern civilization. Criminalistic science, as the most “technical” of the legal disciplines, also could not avoid the temptation to introduce the concept of “criminalistic technology” into its scientific circulation. However, the use of this concept and its derivative definitions can radically change the entire language of criminalistic science, or clog it with a significant number of synonyms that do not carry any new knowledge, but make it difficult to conduct a rigorous scientific discussion. Both of these consequences are unacceptable. In this regard, it is proposed to abandon the use of the concept of “ criminalistic technology” in a strict scientific discourse. In this regard, it seems more reasonable to talk not about criminalistic technologies, but about the manufacturability of an investigation technique, tactics for the production of investigative actions and tactical complexes, methods for detecting, fixing and removing traces, etc. rather than, “for the sake of a witty remark”, rename them into criminalistic technologies.
