Abstract

 

 The article is devoted to some issues of involvement in public works in the framework of criminal punishment. The law and the punishment of crime must correspond to the established life of people, social relations, the ideology and class structure of this society, the state of the economy of the state and the ethical and legal views formed on this basis. Therefore, criminal liability is provided for criminal acts committed in society..

The reorientation of criminal policy towards ensuring human rights and social justice involves the deepening of theoretical developments of such fundamental categories of criminal law as the subject of a criminal offense. It is necessary to clearly understand the essence of those psychological and legal phenomena that are covered by these legal categories.

Every criminal offense is a socially dangerous behavior of people. Therefore, the criminal law directs its requirements, i.e. not to commit criminal acts, in all cases only in relation to the person. Consequently, only the person who has committed a socially dangerous act is criminally liable. In criminal law, the concept of punishment answers the question: a measure of state coercion, prepared according to a court verdict. Sentencing is the most responsible and important stage in the process of applying the criminal law. After all, the imposition of punishment and its implementation contribute to the correction of the convicted person, the restoration of social justice, and the prevention of crimes. Achieving these goals of punishment is largely possible through a fair and reasonable assignment of criminal punishment. It can be applied to a person who has committed a crime only on the basis of a verdict by a special state body – a court.

Much attention is paid to the study of the institution of punishment in criminal law. The authors propose to make a number of changes and additions related to this issue in order to improve the current criminal legislation.
