Abstract
The relevance of the article lies in the fact that the crime provided for in Article 354.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation still raises questions from the point of view of the expediency of criminalization. The dynamics of the number of convicts over the past two years shows a sharp increase compared to previous years, which indicates the activation of persons promoting Nazism, as well as the intensification of the work of law enforcement agencies. Knowing what the social danger of the rehabilitation of Nazism is will help both the legislator (in terms of criminalizing new, related crimes) and the law enforcement officer (in terms of clarifying the correctness of the application of this norm).
The purpose of the article is to reveal the issues of the social danger of the rehabilitation of Nazism, to identify the importance of criminalization of this act for the preservation of peace, stability and justice not only in the modern Russian state, but also in the world community.
Objectives: to study the prerequisites for criminalizing the rehabilitation of Nazism, to analyze and comprehend the mechanism of harming public relations by the rehabilitation of Nazism.
Methodology. The basis of this research is a set of various methods of cognition, including both the dialectical method and methods of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, formal legal and comparative legal.
The results of the study are both theoretical and applied. The author considered the issues of the nature and degree of social danger of the rehabilitation of Nazism, which can be used by the legislator when improving the norm (in terms of penalization and depenalization).
Conclusions. The discussion of the issues considered will draw the attention of the legislator to the development of solutions for further improvement of the regulation of the crime provided for in Article 354.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
