The Criminal Code of the Russian Federation does not contain the concept of multiple offenses.

The article examines and analyzes the main views of Soviet and modern Russian researchers on the issue of the concept of multiple offenses. Some positions of foreign criminal legislation on the issue are also analyzed. Based on the results of the analysis, the concept of multiple offenses is formulated, according to the author, which maximally reflects the essence of the institution.
