Chukin D. S., Pronin K. V. Criminal law and criminological aspects of the prevention of corruption crimes In the troops of the National Guard of the Russian Federation

Abstract. The study substantiates the danger of corruption as a destructive phenomenon that undermines the foundations of society and the state. The historical experience of the functioning of the state apparatus shows that it is impossible to completely eradicate corruption, but it is possible to successfully minimize its manifestations at the local level, which has many positive examples. The state of crime in modern Russia is characterized by the presence of a segment of corruption crimes, the number of which varies from year to year, but remains relatively stable, which allows us to state this as a problem and highlights the need to adjust measures aimed at combating it. It is noted that the current criminal legislation makes it possible to successfully combat various manifestations of corruption. Meanwhile, a number of corruption crimes, which are the result of situational impact on crime, raise questions in investigative and judicial practice and in the theory of criminal law. These norms are a vivid example of casual legal regulation, the abuse of which is recognized as harmful to the quality of the law, which causes the urgent need to amend criminal law norms. Based on the analysis of the causes and conditions, anti-corruption measures are proposed, which include a set of measures in relevant areas of activity aimed at minimizing corruption offenses.
