- Abstract
The article is devoted to the problems of adapting the legislation of Ukraine on combating organized crime to international standards in this sphere. It was emphasized that problem will remain relevant for post-war Ukraine for a long period of time, because it is organized crime can potentially become the mechanism that will try to undermine the foundations of national security and pose a threat to Ukrainian statehood. Therefore, building an effective system for preventing these crimes is vitally important for Ukraine in the context of ensuring its security and economic growth. It was proved that the preventive block of legislation on combating organized crimes is the weakest. The Law of Ukraine "On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of Ukraine Regarding Liability for Crimes Committed by a Criminal Community" has been criticized for its vagueness and evaluative nature, which is unacceptable in the field of criminal repression. As a result, it is proposed to develop and adopt the Law of Ukraine "On Combating Organized Crime", which will be based on the concept (definition) of organized crime as an object of preventive influence, which would meet the international standard of the UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime and be consistent with the norms of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
