Prospects for a meaningful business criminal policy

Criminal policy is an independent branch of Russian law and one of the areas of social policy. Criminal policy is aimed at protecting citizens, their property, as well as protecting state and commercial structures from criminal encroachments and is based on the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Widespread corruption, an increase in the number of economic crimes and, as a result, an increase in social tension, indicate the low effectiveness of the state’s criminal policy in relation to entrepreneurship. A meaningful criminal policy is needed that will focus on the most acute problems caused by crime, contain ways and forms of their solution, follow changes in the socio-economic sphere and provide for the development of events, contain a concept of solutions, take into account the provisions to be changed, as well as positive and negative aspects of the current legislation.The new criminal policy in the form of an exhaustive concept has not yet been formalized, its concepts and definitions are blurred, and it cannot be considered as a program of action for the future. The purpose of this study is the formation and justification of legal changes, the identification of problems of interaction between entrepreneurship and government authorities and society, and methods for their solution. The authors note the possibility of solving the identified problems at the level of political and social actions, the need to reform legislation in the field of combating economic offenses, a constant analysis of the current situation and future crime forecasts, a qualified criminological examination of legislative novels, cooperation and interaction of law enforcement agencies at the international level.
