Загальносоціальні заходи запобігання корупційним правопорушенням у кримінально-виконавчій системі України

Abstract

У статті досліджено та охарактеризовано загальносоціальні заходи запобігання корупційним правопорушенням у кримінально-виконавчій системі України в їх соціально-економічному, культурно-виховному та політико- правовому аспектах. Наголошено на тому, що поширення фактів корупції негативно впливає на ефективність діяльності кримінально-виконавчої системи України, сприяє зростанню пенітенціарної злочинності, підриває репутацію і знижує довіру до її діяльності. The article examines and characterizes general social measures for the prevention of corruption offenses in the criminal-executive system of Ukraine, based on an analysis of the current state of legislation and statistical data, considered through their socio-economic, cultural-educational, and political-legal dimensions. It is established that corruption offenses are destructive in nature and contribute to other types of offenses, in particular the illegal delivery of prohibited items to places of deprivation of liberty, the formation and replenishment of criminal budgets of organized criminal groups, as well as the stimulation of cases of torture of prisoners as a means of obtaining undue benefits by officials of the administration of places of detention, etc. Emphasis is placed on the fact that the spread of corruption negatively affects the effectiveness of the criminal-executive system of Ukraine, contributes to the growth of penitentiary crime, undermines its reputation, and reduces public trust in its activities. The social danger of corruption offenses lies in the fact that they are committed by officials who bear, first and foremost, the duty to ensure compliance with the law. It is concluded that general social measures for preventing corruption-related offenses in the penitentiary system are manifested in socio-economic, cultural-educational, and political-legal aspects and are associated with improving working (service) and rest conditions for the personnel of penitentiary bodies, ensuring an adequate level of material support, strengthening social and legal status, enhancing discipline, as well as other positive changes in the functioning of the system as a whole.
