Abstract

The article analyses the criminal legislation containing the definition of deliberate guilt; proves the existence of dialectical connection between the formula of deliberate guilt and the constructions of norms of the special part of the criminal law; argues the necessity of reforming the concept of deliberate guilt and introducing the categories of “premeditated intent” and “sudden intent” into the legislation; substantiates the social conditionality of establishing a stricter coordination of norms establishing responsibility for specific crimes.
