Abstract: In 1910 Korea became part of the Japanese Empire. By 1925, 103 thousand of Korean workers who migrated to Japan consisted of builders (54.5 %), factory workers (28%), miners (8.3 %), servants and housekeepers (6.7 %) and dockers (1.8%). Specific mentality of Japanese people and how they perceived the world had a cetain impact on their attitude to immigrants. As the research of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs held in 1925 showed, Japanese viewed Koreans as the 'lower race'.This article is the first one in Russian historiography to describe and analyze the reasons of the Korean massacres in Japan in September of 1923. According to the author, the reasons were: 1) Japanese government tried to transfer the citizens' discontent on Korean Diaspora; 2) even though anti-Korean attitudes seemed spontaneous, the author believes it to be the results of induced will of the Japanese government. The professor of the University of Tokyo Uesugi Sinkiti critisized the government's actions towards Korean Diaspora. He clamed that police actually circulated rumors against Korean people and arrested and killed many innocent people.

DOI:
10.7256/2409-7810.2014.2.13851

Abstract: It is noted in the article that, on the one hand, many public norms and public law functions in general are mostly aimed at private interests protection. On the other hand, any legal norm, stating the private-law bases of any social relations, is per se the public one at least because it is, firstly, authorized by the state and becomes a part of the national legislation, secondly, it can't contradict and threaten the very state system and the nature of public management. The methodological base of the article contains the up-to-date achievements of epistemology. The author uses general philosophical, theoretical methods (dialectics, system approach, analysis, synthesis, analogy, deduction, observation, modeling), traditional juridical methods (formal logical method), and methods, used in specific sociological research (statistical method, expert evaluation, etc). Existence and development of civil society is impossible beyond a complex system of social relations and without participation (direct of inderict) of the state, particularly by means of issuing and implementation of norms of private and public law. Civil society is also influenced by the political system of the state, the quality of which affects the models of social development.

DOI:
10.25136/2409-7810.2021.2.35904

Abstract: The research subject is international and foreign legislation in which a person’s consent to or request for infringement of their rights and legal interests indicates their acquiescence to their unreliable property management. The author uses dialectical, logical, historical-legal, formal-legal, and comparative-legal research methods which helped to detect various fields of social relations in which the legislation regulating a person’s consent to damage is used, thus hampering the unification of the legal understanding of this facultative phenomenon. The consideration of a person’s consent to damage as a manifestation of private interest in international law and the legislation of particular countries will allow adopting the best practices for the purpose of integrating this phenomenon into the Russian legal realia. The examination of international and foreign legislation regulating a person’s consent to damage to rights or legal interests demonstrates the need for the implementation of this phenomenon in Russia’s legal sphere, which would be a basis for a comprehensive assessment of the situation of the infringement of rights upon a person’s consent or request. The author studies international and foreign legislation to consider the evolution of social relations in which a person can implement his or her right and manage his or her property, and the regulation of the forms of exercising a personal interest consisting in the consent to damage to life and health. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the comprehensive consideration of international and foreign legislative experience in exercising personal right to be subject to damage, which determines the necessity to introduce such a legal phenomenon into the Russian legal realia based on the criteria of social benefit. The author’s contribution to the development of the topic is the suggestion to introduce a person’s consent to damage into the Russian criminal law.

EDN: IMXRDD

The object of the study is expert, investigative and judicial practice in cases related to determining the value of objects of expert research, as well as evaluation activities in evaluation organizations that perform cost studies of various objects. Special attention is paid to a comprehensive comparative analysis of forensic and evaluation activities, which allows you to distinguish between competence, regulatory regulation, essence, grounds for production, responsibility and the result of the activities of an expert and an appraiser. The main conclusions of the study are : judicial cost examination is carried out only on the basis of an investigator's decision or a court ruling containing legally fixed mandatory requisites; the evaluation of the object is carried out on the basis of contractual obligations.

Markova T., Maksimova T. - Is challenging testimony a new duty of the accused? pp. 14-25

DOI:
10.25136/2409-7810.2023.3.43967

EDN: VLDTBS

Abstract: The article discusses the possibility of the court, provided for in paragraph 5 of Part 2 of Article 281 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, to make a decision on the disclosure of the testimony of witnesses and victims. This problem is investigated by the authors in the context of the fact that the parties should be given the opportunity to protect their interests by all means not prohibited by law, including challenging the read testimony and petitions for their verification with the help of other evidence, as well as by using other means that contribute to the prevention, detection and elimination of errors in court decisions. Based on the study of judicial practice, the authors consider the question of what is meant by the defendant's ability to challenge the testimony of a person testifying against him in ways not prohibited by law and whether it matters what position the defense takes on this issue. The article gives a critical assessment of the approach to solving this issue that has developed in law enforcement practice, which, in essence, "obliges" the defense party to file a petition for a confrontation in case of disagreement with the testimony of a witness. It is noted that this approach is obviously incorrect, and this position is justified. The authors come to the conclusion that depriving the defendant of the right to interrogate the participant showing against him is depriving him of the opportunity to demonstrate to the court the inconsistency of the testimony given by the victim or witness, which can become the key evidence underlying the court's conviction against the defendant. The authors of the article consider correct the position in which the court takes into account the non-confrontation between the accused and the victim, the witness at the stage of preliminary investigation as a circumstance preventing the disclosure of testimony, taking into account the position of the defense. The article evaluates proposals to improve the norms of criminal procedure legislation, taking into account the balance of interests of the parties.
Sidorova N., Habarova E.A. - Concerning Applying Criminal Procedure Compulsion Measures to Suspects and Accused of Extremism pp. 15-23

DOI:
10.7256/2409-7810.2016.4.20757

Abstract: The purpose of the present article is to analyze particular issues arising in the process of applying criminal procedure compusion measures (in particular, taking in custody or pre-trial restrictions) in criminal proceedings on extremism. Based on the Russian criminal procedure legislation and judicial practice of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation as well as Russian courts of general jurisdiction, the authors of the article analyze particular relations arising in the process of applying the measures of procedural compulsion. These relations are usually legally restricted in the most severe way. The methodological basis of our research involves general and specific research methods that are usually used in social studies and law and based on the dialectical understanding of the reality. All measures set forth by Russian criminal law can be applied to criminal proceedings on extremism. When selecting a punitive measure in each particular proceeding on extremism, it is necessary to take into account general and specific conditions in which these measures will be used. Moreover, it is important to take into account the preventive influence of these measures on individuals who committed extremist actions and individuals who are only going to commit extremist actions.   
Moskaeva N.N. - Foreign experience of penalization of economic crimes pp. 16-23

DOI:
10.25136/2409-7810.2021.4.35844

Abstract: The author focuses on the reforms of criminal legislation in Russia, which were aimed at the humanization of criminal responsibility, and aggravate the problem of peculiarities of economic crimes penalization. The creation of effective criminal and legal provisions aimed at the prevention of economic crimes is impossible based only on the study of national experience in this field. The latter requires a system analysis of the existing legal provisions aimed at the prevention of economic crimes in foreign legislation. The author studies criminal legislation of some foreign countries regarding the imposition of punishment for economic crimes. The authors offer ways to formalize punishment for criminal crimes in Russia. The authors arrive at the conclusion that particular provisions of the Criminal Code of Russia testify that penalization performed, unfortunately, is characterized by unsystematic character, groundlessness and mutual incoordination of punishment imposed for particular economic crimes. One of the ways of development of legal regulation of rules courts are guided by when imposing punishment, is the study of strengths and weaknesses of corresponding legal regulations in foreign countries. Based on the analysis of legal regulation and practice of imposition of punishment for economic crimes in foreign countries, the author articulates the position about the advisability of introducing a model of limited formalization of punishment in Russia. In this respect, the suggested formalized mechanism should be introduced gradually and holistically, and should be accompanied by critical interpretation of foreign experience.

Abstract: In this research Dzidzaria conducts a comparative analysis of criminal procedure codes applicable in a number of European Countries and the European Convention of Human Rights with reference to compensation of physical or moral harm and rehabilitation. Based on the legislation of various countries, each citizen has the right to claim compensation for physical or moral harm incurred during application of procedural compulsion measures in case his or her innocence is proved. In case a citizen has been acquitted, he or she also has the right to rehabilitation and compensation of physical or moral harm. The researcher explains the reasons of why a number of criminal procedure codes do not conform to the European Convention on Human Rights articles regarding rehabilitation and offers ways to improve the aforesaid clauses of the criminal procedure codes. The methodological basis of the research involves the comparative legal method with its typical requirements for objectivity, comprehensiveness, historicism, and truth specificity. As a conclusion, the author emphasizes the need to establish and legally fix guarantees of the human rights as the basis of a constitutional state when the accused has the right to protect his rights in case his innocence is proved.

EDN: INLXPX

Abstract: This article provides a brief overview of the experience of the functioning of two parallel investigative apparatuses in the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia: investigation and inquiry. The author convincingly proves that in the course of the development and improvement of pre-trial proceedings in the country, individual reformers have repeatedly attempted to completely eliminate the inquiry as an independent form of preliminary investigation, which, however, did not happen due to a number of reasons. The article also focuses the attention on the imperfection of the normative legal acts of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, which, according to its author, need deep scientific understanding and updating against the background of new emerging threats from the criminal world. That is why the place and role of the bodies of inquiry functioning in the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation in parallel with the investigative authorities need to be clarified. Discussions on the subject of elimination and preliminary investigation do not cease, and in the context not so much of the creation of a single (non-departmental) investigative committee in its completed form, as in the framework of a strategy focused on the complete deformation (deprocessualization) of pre-trial proceedings in criminal cases as a whole. In any case, the realigners of modern criminal procedure legislation and the practice of its application should bear in mind that such metamorphoses of the stages of initiation of a criminal case and preliminary investigation will inevitably entail the most serious transformations in the judicial stages, for which not only representatives of the executive and judicial branches of the federal government, but also the reformers themselves, are absolutely not ready.
Vasnetsova A.S., Merkur'ev V.V. - Combating corruption-related crimes in the context of counterterrorism efforts pp. 31-39

DOI:
10.25136/2409-7810.2020.4.33967

Abstract: The authors study in details such aspects of the problem as the processes of criminal concrement of organized crime, corruption and terrorism, in which organized crime plays the role of initiating (defining) factor of emergence of corruption interconnections of government institutions and terrorist groups. It means that terrorist activity, possessing a range of common features typical for, among other things, organized crime, is impossible without corruption-related contacts in government institutions and self-government bodies. Therefore, long-term functioning of terrorist groups means the presence of a corruption element. The authors study the common patterns of using corruption-related practices by terrorists and substantiate the list of corruption-determined terrorist threats. The authors formulate the suggestions about the extension of the list of risks connected with the corruption-based financing of terrorism. Corruption in government institutions, local self-government bodies and security agencies is a fueler for the development of terrorism, acting, on the one hand, as a reason for its emergence, and on the other hand, as an indispensable condition of its existence. The recognition of corruption as an independent risk factor of the creation of favorable conditions for the financing of terrorism will help to improve counterterrorism efforts.  The authors note that the terrorist threat increases with the level of corruption. Thus, the fight against corruption should remain one of the key directions of national policy, and the effectiveness of these counterterrorism efforts will affect the reduction of terrorist threat level for the state.

An attempt is made to answer the question of whether the passport is property. cases of the use of other people's documents or personal data with a socially dangerous illegal purpose are also considered. The author draws attention to the fact that the number of different types of cases of "forgery of a person" is much more than was presented. These types need to be analyzed in detail in further studies from the point of view of violation of inalienable rights, and especially the right to a name. These issues are investigated using logical and systematic methods, analysis and synthesis, formal legal, comparative legal methods of cognition. The main conclusion of the study is the position on the need to expand the disposition of Part 3 of Article 327 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation by fixing the possibility of criminal prosecution for using someone else's document or personal data for a socially dangerous illegal purpose.

EDN: LTSLLO

Abstract: The application of the norm enshrined in Article 38 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation raises questions and discussions not only in the doctrine of domestic criminal legislation, but also in investigative and judicial activities. Currently, in the science of criminal law, there are different positions on the issue of the right to take the life of a person who has violated the law during his detention, which may negatively affect the application of legislation. In the study, the author used the dialectical method as a universal method of scientific cognition, which allowed to consider phenomena and processes in their interrelation and interaction. In addition, we have used a number of other methods of scientific research, such as formal legal, comparative legal, statistical, structural and system methods. The purpose of delivering a person who has committed a criminal offense to the authorities excludes the possibility of causing death to the detainee, in case of causing death during detention, these actions will in any case be illegal. Delivery to the authorities means that a living person must be delivered to the authorities. Thus, the deprivation of human life is not provided for in Article 38 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The author concludes that the rule on lawful infliction of harm during the detention of a person who has committed an act provided for by criminal law should be expanded and allowed in exceptional cases to cause death to an attacker, which is necessary in the interests of law-abiding citizens, society.
Markina I.N., Bukalerova L.A. - On the necessity to improve the legal provision regulating the responsibility for illegal artificial termination of pregnancy
pp. 48-54

DOI:
10.25136/2409-7810.2019.2.29473

Abstract: The authors consider the issues of legislative correction of the provisions of article 123 of the Criminal Code of Russia for the purpose of its improvement. The research object is social relations protecting health. The current specificity of legal measures, provided by the Russian legislation, aimed at preventing illegal artificial termination of pregnancy determines the necessity to develop suggestions about the improvement of the criminal law of Russia in order to increase its effectiveness. The authors group and study the proposed new constituent elements of these offences. The authors compare legal institutions imposing responsibility for illegal artificial termination of pregnancy. The set of general and specific methods of legal research helps formulate the conclusions of the conducted study. The authors suppose it would be reasonable to amend article 123 of the Criminal Code part one with the following phrase: “The same action in the stage of pregnancy over 22 weeks”. Regarding punishability of this qualified type of illegal artificial termination of pregnancy, the authors suppose it would be reasonable to assign the same punishment as for the offence specified in part 3 of article 123, but to reduce term almost twice - maximum 3 years for compulsory labour and imprisonment, and maximum 1 year for the deprivation of right to hold specific posts or to be engaged in specific activities.
