The Crime Complicity Institution: Contemporary Development Tendencies

Abstract

The article notes that while the institution of complicity in crime is externally stable, it has been significantly updated in terms of content. The balance of accessory and individual principles of complicity has changed, there has been a substantive narrowing of the scope of application of the institution of complicity in a crime (it has practically ceased to “work” in relation to sabotage, crimes of a terrorist and extremist nature), and there has been a certain regression in approaches to the legislative design of this institution.
