The traditional division of the determinants of crime into general social,socio-psychological and personal needs to be clarified in relation to terrorist crimes committed by youngpeople studying in educational organizations. Among the general social determinants of terrorist crime in educational organizations, the main role is played by the social qualities of young people. Among the sociopsychological determinants, the main role is played by shortcomings in family education and the formalismof preventive measures. The analysis of criminal cases allows us to conclude that among the families of thoseaccused and on trial for committing terrorist crimes in educational organizations, pedagogically incorrectlyoriented families prevail, where, for one reason or another, psychological contact with the child has notbeen established.","PeriodicalId":236822,"journal":{"name":"Russian-Asian Legal Journal","volume":"4 30","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139156573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Criticism is given to the legislator's use of plural constructions forsome characteristics. The establishment of the minimum threshold for a minor victim at sixteen years isidentified as an omission of the legislator and the need to establish criminal liability for receiving sexualservices of minors at a younger age in parts 2 and 3 of the studied norm is justified.
