Abstract

The purpose of the research. The article deals with the category of motive as a complex object of knowledge of various scientific specialties. The main attention is paid to the study of motives in criminal law. Criminal motives were deeply and fully revealed by Aristotle. In general theoretical terms, the problem of motives and goals in criminal law was developed by domestic scientists in the 19- th. century, and these studies continue in the modern period. Conclusions. As a result of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that the essence of the motive cannot be comprehended without understanding such phenomena similar to the motive as needs and interests, values, and criminology also adheres to this point of view. Of great importance for the formation of motives is the assessment of the probability of achieving goals. The motive forms the final decision and carries information about the needs and incentives of the situation that has arisen, their mutual correspondence. In the motive, it is necessary to distinguish between what comes from the personality, from its stable (that is, formations and situations independent of circumstances) motivational formations, and what we discover as needs.
