Abstract

The article analyzes the constitutional foundations of modern criminal policy from the standpoint of individual legislative decisions and the practice of applying the criminal law. Special attention is paid to the consideration of the principles of criminal responsibility and their compliance with the norms of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The trends of criminal policy are analyzed, especially from the perspective of protecting priority areas of public relations enshrined in the Basic Law. Attention is paid to the decisions of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation regarding the recognition of certain legislative innovations that do not comply with the Constitution and the explanations of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation on more precise application of the criminal law.

Research objectives: to consider the constitutional foundations of modern criminal policy in relation to the protection of priorities enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation; to determine the reasons for individual legislative decisions in the field of criminal law that do not fully comply with the constitutional foundations; to propose solutions to eliminate existing problems.

Research methods: formal legal, linguistic, logical, comparative legal.

The necessity of more careful use of the positions of criminal law science in improving criminal legislation and developing solutions aimed at combating crime and preventing crimes is emphasized.
