Value-legal priorities of delimitation of competence of state and local authorities in Russia

Chertkov A.N.

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the practice of delimiting and redistributing competencies between state and municipal authorities in Russia from value-legal positions, to suggest priorities and areas for improvement. By means of the formal legal, system-structural, and comparative legal methods of cognition, it was revealed that an overly dynamic and incomplete delimitation of competence requires an understanding of key value-legal priorities in this area. It is proposed to attribute to the value-legal priorities of delimitation of competence the essential unity of public authority and its competence, the highest value of the rights and freedoms of man and society as a whole, subsidiarity and cooperation of authorities in the service of society. The result of the study can be applied in a practical analysis of the practice of delimiting, redistributing and delegating authority, assessing the effectiveness of the implementation of each authority in each constituent entity of the Russian Federation from the perspective of the above priorities. The proposed original approach will help to find a balance of value-legal priorities for delimiting the competence of state and municipal authorities in Russia, ensuring the rights and legitimate interests of citizens and society.

Karnaushenko L.V., Kurdyuk G.P., Urumov A.V.

Abstract

In the article the authors analyze the problems of anti-corruption policy in the context of a special direction for the prevention of corruption (anti-corruption expertise of normative legal acts and their projects), consider the development of the anti-corruption legal mechanism, and the specifics of its institutionalization in the Russian legislation. The positions of scientists regarding the definition of «anti-corruption expertise» are investigated, a comparative analysis of the concepts of «corruptionogenic factors» and «corruption factors» is carried out. A comparative legal analysis of anti-corruption expertise theory and methodology has allowed the researchers to conclude that anti-corruption expertise of normative legal acts is a type of criminological expertise for corruption manifestations identification pre-established in legal norms. The issue of the implementation of international anti-corruption norms in national legislation is also raised. The features of legal consolidation of the system of corruptiogenic and corruption factors in the Russian legislation are indicated. The authors recognize the main achievement of the development of anti-corruption expertise legal consolidation in the legislation by establishing the legal principle «the mandatory implementation of anti-corruption expertise of all legal acts projects» in Federal Law No. 172-FL. The monitoring of the current legislation in this activity allowed the authors to identify a number of collision clauses in the Federal Law «On Anti-Corruption Expertise of Legislative Laws and Normative Legal Acts Projects» and regulations of the Russian Federation Government. On the account of the above mentioned, the authors concluded that legal and organizational basis of anti-corruption expertise of normative legal acts in the Russian Federation is formed, but its level is still far from a perfect one. In connection with this, investigation of the problem of organizing the anti-corruption expertise of legal acts still takes an important place in scientific, educational and enforcement activities.

VALUE OF LAW AND MEANS OF ITS LEGITIMATION: VALUE OF LAW AND MEANS OF ITS LEGITIMATION: SOCIOCULTURAL APPROACH

Matantsev D.A.

Abstract

Axiological investigations of law in the conditions of post-non-classical scientific knowledge acquire special significance. The diversity and variability of social development reflected in the system of value coordinates require the study of the value foundations of legal reality. At the same time, jurisprudence in its typical manner of reductionism is trying to justify a single universal system of legal values without taking into account the sociocultural peculiarity of the phenomenon of law. The purpose of this article is an attempt to justify the value of law as an outcome of rational human activities based on a sociocultural approach and the foundations of legal communication. The initial methodological guidance was a combination of the principles of universalism and the sociocultural relativism of law. The investigation was based on the works of domestic and foreign researchers of legal axiology and social communication as M. Weber, N. Nenowski, G. Tarde, M. Dabber and others. The article justifies that legitimation of law can be provided through rational and irrational means the combination of which depends on the characteristics of the relevant cultural macro-system. According to specificity of modern cultural macro-system, a logical process of increasing the role of law is noted. The sociocultural approach to the study of legal values opens up opportunities for further research in the field of determining the role of law in the life of society in the postmodern era.

TO THE QUESTION OF BECOMING SYSTEM OF PUBLIC AUTHORITY IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION IN THE 90-IES. XX CENTURY

Shuvalov A.A.

Abstract

The purpose of the state is to reveal the peculiarities of the formation of state security bodies in the Russian Federation from 1993 to 1999. Exactly in 1993 that the constitutional crisis was resolved by force. The shooting of the "White house" put a "point" in the confrontation between the legislative and executive authorities. With the adoption of the Russian Constitution in December 1993, the "democratic confrontation" turned into a civilized channel. Now a new system of state bodies had to be built on the Smoking barricades of Moscow. The object of the study is the system of state authorities of the Russian Federation: the President of the Russian Federation, the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, the Government of the Russian Federation, Federal courts. At the same time, the subject of the study is the normative legal basis of the activities of public authorities, their functions, peculiarities of formation and interaction with each other. Within the framework of the research methodology, the analysis of the formation and activity of state authorities from 1993 to 1999 was carried out using historical-legal and comparative-legal methods. In accordance with the basic law, state power is exercised at the Federal and regional levels on the basis of the principle of separation of powers. It was necessary to implement and put into practice those norms that were enshrined in the Constitution. Empirically, we had to build a system of checks and balances, to find a consensus between the state bodies of different branches of government. It is concluded that by the end of the 1990s. the state authorities failed to establish interaction between its institutions and bodies and to carry out effective policies in the interests of the whole country, to fulfill their obligations and, accordingly, to get out of the permanent economic and political crisis.

ABOUT THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE INSTITUTION OF MARRIAGE IN THE CONTEXT OF POLYGYNOUS RELATIONS

Abesalashvili M.Z., Tutarishcheva S.M., Tseeva S.K.

Abstract

As a part of the study, the main legal accents of the process of transformation of marriage forms are identified. Attention is drawn to the fact that the institution of marriage has historically changed in two directions: in the forms and types of marriage. It is revealed that in society there is a "reflux" process of restructuring the civil form of marriage into a religious one. In this regard, in modern Russian society have become dominant confessional ceremony at the conclusion of marriage. Thus, this indicates that in the past the process of transformation of the form of marriage took place from religious to civil, but now there is a reverse trend. In this aspect, the types of marriages according to the criteria of the number of partners entering into marriage and family relations are considered in detail, and also monogamous marriage and polygamous marriage are distinguished by this criterion. The latter type is studied in the context of polygyny, which is characterized by the marriage relationship of one man and several women, and polyandry - a very rare form of marriage, in which the number of male partnerships prevails. The legal assessment of legalization of polygamous relations in modern Russian society is given.

Problems of International Adoption

Kudryavtseva L.V., Mikhnevich A.V., Baidina V.S.

Abstract

In modern society, the process of international integration and mutual legal implementation is actively taking place. Countries seek to pursue an open policy, thereby contributing to the active globalization of the entire world society. Globalization also applies to the legal sphere, and both the legal norms themselves and the relations regulated by them are unified. This process is most clearly reflected in private law relations, in particular in relations associated with international adoption. In modern society, there are frequent cases of raising children in foreign families. In this regard, the system of norms regulating these relations is also being improved. However, even in modern society, problems arise in the adoption by Russian citizens of Russian children by foreign citizens. Coverage and comprehensive study of these problems is the main purpose of this article. The problems presented in the article can also be solved through rule-making. Based on the foregoing, the authors also give possible ways to resolve the problems that have developed in the sphere of public relations under consideration. The above methods of resolving the problems that have arisen are, in turn, conditionally divided by the authors into procedural (that is, suggested, specific actions that need to be applied when implementing the adoption procedure) and legal. The latter, in turn, provide for legislative changes that must be implemented to overcome the problems identified by the authors. The authors’ mechanism for resolving problems that have arisen in the field of international adoption seems particularly relevant at the present time and is of great importance in modern law enforcement.

PROPERTY RIGHTS AS AN OBJECT OF CIVIL RIGHTS

Netishinskaya L.F., Blagodarova N.S.

Abstract

The article discusses issues related to the existence in the legislation of such an object of civil rights as property rights, which is included in the category of “other property”. Given the fuzzy and insufficient, in our opinion, legislative regulation of the content and nature of property rights, we consider it necessary to analyze the existing legislative provisions on property rights as an object of civil rights, although, of course, it should be noted that there are certain opinions in the legal literature and judicial practice on the subject issue. An analysis of the legislative provisions on property rights showed that they act as an object of civil rights in obligatory legal relations, in particular, as a subject of pledge, a subject of pledge of obligation rights, while the legislator identifies property rights with claim rights. Also, when considering the provisions on property rights, it was concluded that property rights should be distinguished from property legal relations in which property rights can act as an object.

Authors and their heirs as special categories of rights holders

Kozlova M.V.

Abstract

The article analyzes the differences in the legal regulation of the issues of origin and protection of the rights of authors and their heirs in comparison with the provisions established for other categories of rights holders. The author notes that the legislation of many countries now laid the foundation for the differentiation of the rights of authors as "primary" rights holders and their heirs as "successors" of the author's personality, in respect of which there is always a certain personal element to the work, and the rights of other rights holders, whose interests are assumed to be concentrated exclusively in the property sphere. The author of the article justifies the need for consistent identification of authors of works and their heirs as special subjects belonging to a separate category of rights holders, which will contribute to the consolidation of general principles and unified guarantees of the rights of authors in respect of their works.

Asnis A.Y.

Abstract

At the same time, it is proposed to fix in the notes to Art. 286 RCC the definition of the dependent person and the rules of delimitation of torture from causing suffering, not separated from the reasonably applied punishment or other legal restriction of the rights and freedoms of a person. The expediency of the exclusion of part 2 of Art. 117 "Torture" RCC, paragraph "d" (the Commission of torture the use of torture and amendments of article 286 RCC the new part providing for increased liability for excess of powers of office with application of torture.

Abstract

The article explores the phenomenon of religious fundamentalism, its roots and components are determined, the causes of the emergence and rapid spread of modern fundamentalist ideas and trends are analyzed, as well as the impact of this phenomenon on modern society and politics in the context of globalization of world processes.

FEATURES OF CRIMINALIZATION OF THE CRIMINAL LAW PROHIBITION ON THE USE OF TORTURE

Zhurtov A.B.

Abstract

Objective - To analyze in detail the objective signs of torture, to give a detailed description of them. To consider in detail the characterization of the criminalization of the criminal law prohibition of torture. Conclusions - The Criminal Code of the Russian Federation includes a number of rules that criminalize torture and there are signs of torture, but there is no independent criminal law provision, believes that this contributes to an ambiguous approach to determining the nature and degree of public danger of such an act and requires amendments to the Criminal Code. Social consequences - The degree of public danger of torture is clearly difficult to assess. This is due to the fact that during the use of torture a person can be inflicted only beatings, although such methods of influence on the victim that are not physical violence (mental impact) are not excluded. Originality / value - The current legislative approach, as we noted above, does not meet these requirements, but can be brought into proper form. The provability of torture, as a rule, does not cause significant difficulties, as evidenced by the examples of criminalizing torture.

Discussion aspects of the normative approach to understanding the corpus delicti

Komyagin R.A.

Abstract

Today it seems possible to ascertain the existence of dualism in the science of criminal law in the understanding of the category of corpus delicti, and specifically, the existence of objectivist and normative approaches. In the framework of the normative approach, the content of the concept of the corpus delicti, the separation of its general and specific types, the ratio of the crime and the corpus delicti, the criterion for its establishment, as well as the place and significance of the corpus delicti in the basis of criminal liability, have not been established. Purpose: the formation in the science of criminal law of a systematic idea of the main provisions, the existing contradictions, and the existing depth of the scientific discussion within the framework of the normative approach to understanding the corpus delicti, aimed at further improving the general doctrine of the corpus delicti. Conclusion: the presence of the discussion aspects discussed in the study does not allow us to talk about the integrity and completeness of the normative approach to understanding the corpus delicti. Social and practical applicability: the findings of the study, the findings, if they are taken into account by the researchers of the doctrine of criminal law, will be able to overcome the contradictions that exist within the framework of the normative approach, and to form a unified idea of the corpus delicti as a fundamental criminal law category. Also, the materials set forth in the article can be used in studying by students of various levels and forms of preparation of the General Part of the Criminal Law of the Russian Federation.

Actual problems of criminal penalties in judicial practice

Shamina E.A.

Abstract

This article discusses current issues of applying a criminal penalty in the form of a fine. The author has illustrated the gaps of the current criminal law based on the consideration of judicial practice in specific criminal cases. A detailed study of a number of sentences on various types of crimes, as well as the procedure for sentencing a criminal fine in the courts of Moscow, is given. Purpose of the article: This work aims to study the violation of the most important principles and goals of the current criminal law, such as: restoring social justice, correcting the convict and preventing him from committing new crimes. Methodology and methods: the article uses analysis, synthesis, deduction, induction, the comparative legal method, as well as the method of interpretation of legal norms, which allow for an extended analysis of the criminal legal norm and determine the optimal development vector. Conclusions: the problem of the presence of imperfections in the current legislation is relevant for study, as indicated by judicial practice in specific criminal cases. The punishment in the form of a fine is not always commensurate with the gravity of the act and corresponds to such purposes of applying the criminal law as correction and prevention of repeated crimes. The use of a fine in the form of a penalty is used by judges when it is difficult to apply other types of punishment provided for in Article 44 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Scope of the results: the research materials analyzed in this article may be of interest in the scientific and educational field as a textbook for students of higher educational institutions: bachelors, undergraduates, graduate students exploring this area of criminal law. Also, this material may be of interest to teachers of law schools, can be used as a tool for the preparation of practical and seminar classes.
