PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS OF RESOCIALIZATION OF MINORS HAVING COMMITTED CRIMES
Introduction: Minors as one of the most mobile, developing groups of the population should be considered as a genetic, economic and political resource of the state. In modern conditions, the stability of the proportion of minors who have previously committed crimes, the growth of the share of group crime, including those with signs of organization, is of great concern. This is largely due to the psychophysiological peculiarities of age, which facilitate the involvement of minors in the criminal sphere and determine the nature of their illegal behavior. Depending on the factors of objective and subjective nature, the minors can be considered as criminals who have violated the laws, and at the same time, as victims of the negative impact of the microenvironment. In this regard, it is of interest to re-socialize minors who have committed crimes, regardless of the fact of criminal prosecution and (or) the forms of its implementation. Aim: to identify the problems and prospects of resocialization of minors who have committed crimes. Methods: Methods of dialectical cognition, comparative legal, formal logical and statistical methods were used in the study. Results: As a result of the research, the author formulates the stages of correction of social attitudes and beliefs of juvenile delinquents and determines the potential of interested subjects. Conclusions: The author comes to the conclusion that the resocialization of minors committing crimes cannot terminate with a change in the already established attitude to the norms of law, society and their lives. Its progress involves further development, the formation of the ability to influence events and make correct decisions from the law point of view.
