- Abstract
- Criminalization and decriminalization are not clearly defined in the framework of criminal policy. The article deals with six approaches to the definitions represented in the Russian legal doctrine. The critical reconsideration of broad and broader approaches allows us to distinguish criminalization (decriminalization) from differentiation, individualization, penalization and depenalization. The author pays great attention to the narrow approach. It is suggested that criminalization should be considered as the particular method of criminal policy, which is derived from common differentiation of a legal regulation and a liability method. In the article the author argues the necessity of analyzing criminalization (decriminalization) as the process and the result of establishing (removing) the criminal law prohibition.
