Fraud: Correspondence of a Large and Grand Size to the Degree of Public Danger Originally Laid Down by the Legislator
Avdeeva E.V. Fraud: correspondence of a large and grand size to the degree of public danger originally laid down by the legislator. Penitentiary Science, 2024, vol. 18, no. 2 (66), pp. 156–164. doi 10.46741/2686-9764.2024.66.2.005.
Introduction: the article analyzes significance of the degree of public danger in the context of
economic corpus delicti and studies compliance of public danger to thresholds of large and grandscale fraud provided for by Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation originally
laid down by the legislator. Purpose: to study the size of large and grand damage for corpus delicti
most often incriminated to entrepreneurs and analyze legislation in other post-Soviet countries to
determine a large and grand size, as well as its use in conditional values. Methods: general scientific
methods of cognition (analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction), special methods of legal
science (comparative legal and normative-logical), individual private methods of social sciences.
Results: domestic criminal legislation needs to be reconsidered and thresholds of large and grandscale fraud as aggravating circumstances of many economic crimes should be brought into line with
economic changes, including in Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Fraud”.
This is confirmed by economic changes, as well as experience of other countries. Conclusion: the
analysis shows the necessity of introducing conditional values that will allow us to respond in a timely
manner to changes in the economy without a point-by-point revision of criminal legislation, which will
more fully meet the criterion of fairness.
Keywords: fraud, large and grand size, experience of post-Soviet countries, criminalization and decriminalization of acts in the field of economics, conditional values for determining a large and grand size.
