Abstract

The paper examines the doctrinal problems of crime as the central institution of criminal law. The essence and content of the concept of "crime" and its features are revealed from ontological positions: an act, social danger, wrongfulness, guilt and punishability. A differentiated approach to assessing the wrongfulness and social danger of an act determines the emergence of many concepts of crime and its characteristic elements (features). The legal concept of a crime is based on the fact that the act reflects and characterizes the crime and it is the act that has a set of objective and subjective features. The author outlines some trends in the development of the doctrine of crime in the context of the global instrumentalization of criminal law and the unification of modern legal systems. The main conclusion is that the concept of a crime should be formulated through the definition of social danger and unlawfulness (a crime is socially dangerous and unlawful behavior). It is the combination of public danger and wrongfulness that forms the concept of a crime and the rest of the features are derivatives. Socially dangerous behavior contains a set of objective and subjective features of wrongfulness, which are directly enshrined in the criminal law, which also provides for an element of punishment as a measure of state influence.
