Differentiation and Integration of the Norms of Executive Law

Abstract

Introduction This paper is concerned with the study of the issues of differentiation and integration in criminal and penal law. Criminal and penal law, being a multilevel system, is characterized by the presence of differentiating and integrative qualities. The differentiation is manifested in the presence of nuanced norms of criminal and penal law, distinguished with account of the specifics of its subject, sectoral methods of legal regulation, functions. The integration in criminal and penal law is noticeable in distinguishing “special-purpose norms” - general norms of criminal and penal law: norms-goals, norms-objectives, norms-principles, norm-definitions. The identification of new social relations emerging at the stage of implementation of criminal responsibility necessitates redistribution of amended and new norms of criminal and penal law, taking into account the logic and the rules of the internal structure of this branch.
