I. Bazhanov, who made a significant contribution to the formation and development of the modern domestic science of criminal law. \u0000It was noted that at the Department of Criminal Law of the Yaroslav Mudryi National Law University, the institute of multiplicity of criminal offenses it was the doctor of legal sciences, professor, academician of the Academy of Legal Sciences of Ukraine Mark Ihorovych Bazhanov who initiated the offenses. In his works such as \"Prescribing punishment according to the totality of crimes and totality of sentences (1977), \"Prescribing punishment according to Soviet criminal law\" (1980), \"Criminal law of Ukraine. General part\" (1992), \"Repetition of crimes as a type of multiplicity of crimes\" (1993), \"Multiplicity of crimes under the criminal law of Ukraine\" (2000), several editions of the textbook \"Criminal law of Ukraine: General part\" (2001 , 2003) considered a wide range of issues related to the characteristics of the institution of the multiplicity of criminal offenses, their concepts, signs and types, problems of punishment, other legal consequences. \u0000Much attention was paid to Professor M.I. Bazhanov devoted himself to the study of single criminal offenses as structural elements of the multiplicity of criminal offenses. In particular, under his scientific guidance, two dissertations of candidates of legal sciences were prepared and successfully defended, devoted to the specified torts: in 1990 - I. О. Zinchenko: \"Compound crimes in Soviet criminal law: concepts, types, some problems of qualification and construction of sanctions\" and in 2002 by Ye. V.

The article notes that the problem of combating domestic violence constantly attracts the attention of not only forensic scientists, but also judges, lawyers, and human rights defenders. \u0000Statistical data on the number of cases of domestic violence were considered. It is emphasized that when interpreting the concept of \"criminal offenses related to domestic violence\", referring to them only Art. 126-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine is not entirely correct and correct, since the concept of \"domestic violence\" enshrined in the Council of Europe Convention on the prevention of violence against women and domestic violence and the fight against these phenomena and the Law of Ukraine of December 7, 2017 No. 2229-VIII \"On prevention and combating domestic violence\" is broader than the law of Ukraine on criminal liability. \u0000The existing approaches to the interpretation of such a mandatory feature of the composition of a criminal offense as \"systematic perpetration of physical, psychological or economic violence\" were studied and the lack of unity in judicial practice regarding its interpretation was noted. Attention is focused on the decision of the Supreme Court dated February 25, 2021 in case No. 583/3295/19, where its interpretation is given and problematic issues of the use of this decision by the courts are considered. A conclusion was drawn on the need to generalize judicial practice (as of November 6, 2022 – the total number of verdicts in the first instance is 2,137) and to take into account the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights in this category of cases when sentencing.","PeriodicalId":387320,"journal":{"name":"Herald of the Association of Criminal Law of Ukraine","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126174901","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}

The author set out to show how responsible, complex and intense the process of developing a legal act of a codified level is. The work on the draft of the Criminal Code of 2001 lasted more than 8 years, the most qualified practitioners, leading scientists, university professors, employees of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, and, of course, the people's deputies of Ukraine, who adopted it on April 5, 2001, were involved in its development. The Criminal Code of Ukraine of 2001 is actually the first fundamental legal act, which became a significant event in the development of Ukraine as a sovereign, independent, democratic, social and legal state.

It is stated that the foundations of state policy are laid down in state programs, plans and strategic documents. The key directions of road safety are contained in legal acts that reflect strategic, perspective, short-term and long-term plans for achieving the goal. Such documents are the State Program for Improving Road Safety in Ukraine and the Strategy for Improving Road Safety in Ukraine. It is noted that some of the measures and directions adopted for the new term of the State Program and Strategy remain unchanged, but their definition is being improved from year to year and becomes less declarative. \u0000The analysis of the effectiveness of legislative changes to strengthen responsibility for driving while intoxicated is carried out. The conclusion is made that the state policy in the field of road safety, in particular, to reduce the severity of the consequences of road accidents, has sufficient regulatory and legal consolidation. Strategic and program documents contain specific measures and directions of road safety, but there is no statistics on the effectiveness of the measures taken, analysis of costs for each item and miscalculations, as well as their critical assessment. \u0000A number of proposals were made that will contribute to more effective implementation of the state policy to reduce the severity of road accidents. These are: improvement of the system of collecting information on road accidents, its processing, research and analysis in order to develop and implement effective preventive measures; assessment of the effectiveness and efficiency of the measures implemented to determine the priority of funding; conducting a sound economic assessment of the cost of life, health and damage to the economy from road accidents.","PeriodicalId":387320,"journal":{"name":"Herald of the Association of Criminal Law of Ukraine","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127620006","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}

The content of the circumstance that excludes the criminal illegality of the act of fulfillment of the duty to protect the Matherland, independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine, provided for in Article 431 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The concept of combat immunity and its relationship with the circumstance that excludes the criminal illegality of the act - the act associated with risk. Combat immunity is the release from military responsibility of military command, servicemen, volunteers of the Territorial Defense Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, law enforcement officers who, in accordance with their powers, participate in the defense of Ukraine, persons defined by the Law of Ukraine , including criminal, for the loss of personnel, military equipment or other military property, the consequences of the use of armed and other force in repelling armed aggression against Ukraine or the elimination (neutralization) of armed conflict, other defense tasks of Ukraine using any types of weapons (weapons), the occurrence of which with reasonable care could not be foreseen in the planning and implementation of such actions (tasks) or covered by justified risk, except in cases of violation of laws and customs of war or use of force under international treaties, viscosity of which is provided by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine\".
