Foreign Experience in the Application of Administrative Coercion Measures by State Bodies within the National Security System

The paper analyzes the features of the legal regulation of administrative coercion measures in foreign states and the experience of their application by specialized state bodies ensuring national security. It is established that in the USA, Great Britain, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Italy, Spain, the People’s Republic of China, and other states, as well as in Russia, similar administrative coercion measures are applied for the purposes of ensuring national security. These include the detention of individuals (police detention, preventive detention, detention for identity verification); detention of vehicles; search and/or inspection of premises, buildings, structures; personal search and/or frisking of individuals; seizure of items and documents, etc. However, there are also administrative coercion measures that are applied in specific foreign states or have certain application features. Such measures may include, in particular, the following: examining information from citizens’ electronic devices; «searching» electronic data storage media using special equipment or malicious computer programs; applying artificial intelligence technologies to prevent and suppress offenses and crimes; questioning (police questioning); freezing deposits and money transfers; inspecting documents and correspondence in banks to discover items subject to seizure or to clarify circumstances; escorting/removing an individual from a specific area or object; prohibiting entry to a specific area or object; and others.
