Abstract

The article discusses social and class nature of the Russian Criminal Code. There are analyzed the penal provisions covering specific components of offenses, as well as some criminal provisions providing other non-criminal penal actions (confiscation of property, grounds for exemption from criminal liability). It is concluded that the criminal law in its criminal provisions simultaneously represents and defends the interests of the entire society and its individual social groups, members of the criminal business elite, elites with criminal records. Therefore, the evaluation of the Russian Criminal Code and its effectiveness must be determined by the “social efficiency” and ‘class performance’ of an analyzed regulatory act.

Keywords

efficiency of the criminal law, assessment of the criminal law, class nature of the law, social nature of the law.
