Про кримінально-правові відносини в контексті оціночної діяльності особи, що застосовує кримінальний закон

Abstract

Кримінально-правові відносини запропоновано розглядати в рамках когнітивного дискурсу. Практична діяльність органів правосуддя у процесі кваліфікації злочину спрямована на знання двох об’єктів: суспільно небезпечної діяльності, забороненою кримінальним законом, і особою, яка здійснила цю суспільно небезпечну дію. Пропонований підхід у трактуванні об’єктів кримінально-правових відносин показує спрямованість оціночної діяльності правоприймаючого.

The criminal-legal relationship is proposed to be considered within the framework of cognitive discourse. Practical activities of the justice system in the process of qualifying a crime are aimed at the cognition of two objects: a socially dangerous act, prohibited by Criminal Law, and the person who committed this socially dangerous act. The proposed approach in interpreting the objects of the criminal-legal relationship shows the focus of the appraisal activity of the law enforcer. The conflict Criminal Law relationship has cognitive nature. This means that the interdependency of the participants of the Criminal Law relationship is conditioned by the existence of a special cognitive connection between these participants. This connection is determined by the content of the Criminal Law relationship. The powers of the judicial authorities in the Criminal Law relationship at the initial stage should include the right and duty of criminal prosecution bodies and the court to provide a Criminal Law assessment of the committed act. Correspondingly, the main right of a person who committed a socially dangerous act is the right to demand the proper qualification of the committed act. In the network of the cognitive discourse the practical activity of the judicial authorities is aimed at the cognition of two objects: a socially dangerous act that is banned by the Criminal Law and a person who committed this socially dangerous act. The suggested approach to the interpretation of the objects of a conflict criminal law relationship influences its content as well. The practical and assessment activity of persons carrying out the process of the crime qualification is aimed at cognizing the signs of the committed act and of the person who committed it. In the course of the crime qualification, the authorized person, within the unfolding Criminal Law relationship, constructs and demonstrates a criminal event on the basis of the facts that took place in the past.
