The importance of this problem consists of the fact that the modern legal regulation should conform to the changing legal relationship and take into consideration the former mistakes. But at present the issues of privatization are regulated by the normative acts which had been adopted more than ten years ago, and the state policy in this sphere practically has not changed.

Abstract: The article is devoted to criminological research of organized fraud. The functional, system, social and economic analyses, widely used today, are very important for the study of this kind of organized crime, but the authors conclude, that criminological research should not be substituted by these methods. The authors suppose that the evaluation of organized crime through the complex of group crimes can’t be considered appropriate. In this case organized crime loses its distinctness and turns into some kind of a “drain”, where all the crimes committed by organized groups of people concentrate. When using this approach it is hard to define the essential features of organized criminal activity. Though the article gives preference to the criminological approach to organized crime study, the authors also consider its disadvantages lying in “axiologization” and “demonization” of organized crime. On the base of the comparative-legal method the authors analyze a wide range of archive materials, scientific literature, materials of Mass Media. The use of the formal-juridical method helped in formulating of authors’ definitions. The authors also use the statistical method of organized crime research. The most comprehensive and substantial approach is the criminological approach to organized crime defining. Depending on the amount of analysis criteria, the narrow and the wide meanings can be defined. While the wide meaning covers the activity of stable organized groups and criminal communities, the narrow one covers only criminal communities. The need for generalization and systematization of knowledge about various types of organized crime doesn’t allow limitation of its sphere only to criminal communities’ activities, or to the complex of crimes committed by them. In the considered context organized fraud correlates with organized crime as a part and the whole.

Abstract: The article is devoted to the study of extremist motives as a constructive feature of the offences against the person. The authors suggest enhancement of the legislation and qualification of these offences. There is no common approach in the juridical practice to understanding of terms “hostility” and “hatred”, though the authors note that these terms are used in Russian legislation as synonyms. “Hostility” is usually defined in the Russian language as relationships and actions full of aversion, hatred – the filling of a strong hostility, anger. The authors prove that the notion “hostility” is broader that the notion “hatred” and includes some other feelings. In their research work the authors used the complex of the general scientific and special methods of social and legal reality cognition. The methodological base includes the dialectic method with its distinctive requirements of objectivity, universality, historicity, objectivity of truth. Among the general scientific methods the authors used the methods of analysis, synthesis, comparison, and measurement. As a special scientific method the authors used the comparative legal method. The originality of the research is based on the attempt to reveal the essence of the notion “social group”, the absence of which complicates law-enforcement and impedes practice unification. A high social danger of homicide motivated by hostility or hatred for a social group occurs only if a social group which a victim belongs to is united by national, racial or religious features.

Abstract: The Decree of the President of Russia of 11.04.2014 №226 “On the National Plan of Combating Corruption for 2014 – 2015” formed the topical problems of scientific research for 2014 – 2015 years. One of them is a formation of a system of bans, restrictions and responsibilities, also in relation to commercial organizations, aimed at combating corruption. From the viewpoint of security measures this article considers the anti-corruption restrictions imposed on a former commercial organization employee who continued in a government body. The author uses the general scientific and the special methods of cognition: analysis, synthesis, modeling, the formal-logical method, the system-structural method, and the statistical and sociological methods. According to the existing legislation there can appear a situation when a manager of a commercial or another organization, which has been noticed using the corruption methods (the very organization, or its employees have been mage answerable for corruption offences), can without any restrictions apply for an executive position in a state or municipal authority. It is supposed that public service doesn’t change person’s behavior or code of conduct. In this case the state as an employer, having received the information about the previous offences or illegal activities of a job applicant, should have the guarantees of honesty of the applicant on a public service. At the moment in order to prevent getting jobs by dishonest persons the employer can use the institution of the manager’s responsibility for the organization’s actions. It is suggested amending the Law on Combating Corruption with the article 12.6 “Restrictions imposed on a person getting job in a state or a municipal service who had worked as a manager in a commercial or a non-commercial organization which was made accountable for corruption offences”.

Abstract: The problem of normative legal acts improvement is urgent for every sphere of a modern law-making. It entirely concerns the regulation of Russian lending organizations. One of key ways of this problem solution is the enhancement of expertise of legal and normative acts projects. At the same time the types of normative legal acts expertise which are being used today, are solely the kinds of a state expertise. In relation to bank legislation, in our opinion, they should be supplemented with a very important institution of a public expertise. In this article the author uses the institutional approach to the analysis of a public expertise essence. Within the limits of this approach the author uses the methods of the comparative, structural, and system analysis. The author concludes that the most proficient institutes which are able to carry out the public expertise of normative legal acts in the bank sphere are the Civic Chamber of the Russian Federation and the Interregional Banking Board at the Council of Federation of the Russian Federation. The author formulates the set of proposals for development of the institute of pubic expertise of normative legal acts in the bank sphere.
