До питання про злочинну організацію як форму співучасті

Abstract

Охарактеризовано злочинну організацію як форму співучасті. Констатовано, що кримінального-правовій доктрині протягом тривалого часу відома розглядувана форма співучасті, утім правознавців або бачили таке формування в якості одного з різновидів організованої групи, або ж виокремлювали її як окрему форму співучасті. Деякі автори взагалі мають сумніви стосовно доцільності існування такого інституту. У зв’язку з цим виникає багато проблем щодо суті й змісту поняття злочинної організації та її основних ознак, що породжує безперервні дискусії серед вчених.

The article is devoted to the characterization of a criminal organization as a form of complicity. Organized crime is a negative social phenomenon that is caused by social relations that arise as a result of human activity. In the current Criminal Code of Ukraine, the criminal organization has found expression as the most dangerous form. The need to define this form of complicity, its typical and specific features is caused primarily by the rapid growth of organized crime. A criminal organization is an association of people in which anti-social collective sentiments are most pronounced. In this formation of persons, stable connections are established, which acquire organizational forms, and a cohesive community is formed, the purpose of which is to engage in criminal activity. It is worth noting that the science of criminal law has long known this form of complicity, but scholars have either considered it as a kind of organized group or singled out as an independent form of complicity. The legislator has long portrayed the criminal organization in the Special Part as independent components of a criminal offense, which has led to little practice in their application and almost complete underdevelopment of the criminal law aspect of this problem. Unfortunately, the establishment and study of the content and features of the concept of "criminal organization" has not received due attention among the scientific community. Brought. that criminal organizations are endowed with the same properties as any other organization, namely: they allow to achieve results that are impossible to achieve without uniting people in the organization, but differ only in that they focus their activities on achieving criminal results. High efficiency of the organization as a tool for achieving results is a great danger to society. It was stated that the criminal law doctrine has long known this form of complicity, but jurists either saw this formation as one of the varieties of an organized group, or singled it out as a separate form of complicity. Some authors have doubts about the feasibility of such an institution. As a result, there are many problems with the nature and content of the concept of criminal organization and its main features, which gives rise to constant debate among scientists.
