Abstract

Background: Since the adoption of the new Criminal Code of Kazakhstan, the norms regulating criminal liability for corruption offences have already been repeatedly amended and supplemented to meet the requirements of anti-corruption international legal obligations. However, some inconsistencies pose a challenge to the successful eradication of corruption. Methods: The study employed various methodologies, including the historical and legal method, statistical analysis, formal logic, and system analysis and synthesis. Eradication of corruption is a priority task of the National Development Plan of Kazakhstan. The analysis of anti-corruption criminal legal norms of foreign countries has shown the variability of fixing the norms of international conventions in national criminal law. However, the general essence of these norms remains unchanged. Based on a critical approach to the analysis of corruption prevention by Kazakhstani criminal law norms, the paper substantiates the need for further correction to bring them in line with international anti-corruption standards. Results and Conclusions: The article proposes measures to strengthen corruption prevention by improving the anti-corruption norms of Kazakhstan's criminal law in light of international requirements.

哈萨克斯坦刑法不符合国际反腐败标准

背景:自哈萨克斯坦通过新的《刑法》以来，为满足反腐败国际法律义务的要求，关于腐败犯罪刑事责任的规范已经过多次修订和补充。然而，一些矛盾之处对成功根除腐败构成了挑战。方法:采用历史与法律方法、统计分析、形式逻辑、系统分析与综合等方法进行研究。消除腐败是哈萨克斯坦国家发展计划的一项优先任务。通过对国外反腐败刑事法律规范的分析，可以看出国际公约规范在国家刑法中固定的多变性。然而，这些规范的一般本质保持不变。基于对哈萨克斯坦刑法规范预防腐败的批判性分析，本文证实了进一步纠正的必要性，以使其符合国际反腐败标准。结果与结论:本文结合国际要求，通过完善哈萨克斯坦刑法的反腐败规范，提出加强预防腐败的措施。
