Abstract

The article analyzes the novelties of Russian criminal legislation in the field of combating crimes in the field of sports. The relevance of the problem is due to the insufficient development of the theoretical and scientific-methodological aspects of the mechanism of legal protection of public relations in the field of professional sports in Russia. The purpose of the article is to develop a concept for the development of criminal legislation on responsibility for sports crimes. The main research method of this problem is formally legal, which allows the authors to formulate proposals for improving the criminal law. In addition, comparative legal and sociological methods were used to ensure the reliability of the results obtained. The study revealed that the following acts that infringe on relations in the field of sports are subject to criminalization within the framework of current Russian criminal law: 1) giving and receiving bribes by persons performing organizational and administrative and administrative functions in connection with the organization and conduct of professional sporting events; 2) hooligan behavior of spectators and other persons present during a professional sporting event. The study is aimed at the formation of a system of competencies among law enforcement officers to counteract violations in the field of sports, including the use of criminal law enforcement measures. The novelty and originality of the study lies in the fact that for the first time a concept is proposed for the development of criminal legislation on responsibility for crimes in the field of sports in the form of a revision of the corresponding criminal law norms.
