DETERMINANTS OF CRIME
The article analyzes the determinants of crime, which are directly related to the personality of the offender and are internal factors that led to the Commission of certain crimes, and external causes, emerging in society as a whole. The object of the research is social relations arising in connection with criminal behavior of citizens. The relevance of the study is the need to draw attention to the existing problem from both the public and public authorities. The study of the causes and conditions of crime among citizens reveals the existing contradictions in modern society, which encourage the Commission of crimes. Such contradictions today include the following: the impact of global problems, as a result of which there is a deep social stratification; deformation of the state, which manifests itself in increasing corruption, the dominance of oligarchic structures; deformation of moral consciousness, which manifests itself in the inability of man to control his inner features; the discrepancy between the economic expectations of reality, which leads to a desire by criminal means to solve existing financial problems. At the same time, it should be noted that the description of the social portrait of the offender should take into account gender characteristics, in connection with which the determinants of female crime should be considered separately.
