Santashov А. L., Skakov A. B. The idea of a progressive system of execution of criminal sentences and its development in the domestic penitentiary science. Penitenciarnaya nauka = Penitentiary Science. 2020; 14(2):176–184. (In Russ.). DOI 10.46741/2686-9764-2020-14-2-176-184.
The article discusses theoretical and applied issues of developing a progressive system of execution and serving of criminal sentences and other measures of a criminal law nature. According to the authors of the article the progressive system is a complex, intersectoral institution consisting of independent institutions of criminal and penal law, in the application of which the legal status of the convicted person changes depending on the degree of correction, either in the direction of expanding his rights or in the direction of their restriction. The study analyzes the scientific ideas about the progressive system, its implementation in the criminal law and penal policy implemented in the Russian Federation in the field of the execution of imprisonment. In connection with the presence of a number of significant shortcomings, it is necessary to further improve the legal regulation of the process of execution of sentences and other measures of a criminal law nature, alternative to imprisonment. Thus, the legal regulation of the implementation of all measures of criminal legal influence should be carried out through criminal enforcement legislation, and the use of legal institutions of a progressive system of the execution of imprisonment can be extended to other alternative punishments. The authors consider it appropriate to have a unified approach to the formation of criminal and penal legislation on a progressive system of execution and serving of criminal sentences. In addition in the draft Criminal Executive Code of the Russian Federation, in their opinion, it is necessary to provide for the expansion of the boundaries of the subject of the penal law, not only by regulating the execution and serving of other measures of a criminal law nature at the penal level, but also other criminal enforcement institutions rights: types of sentences, correctional system, execution of sentences, alternative to imprisonment; probation, commutation of punishment, grant of parole.
Keywords: progressive system; execution and serving of criminal sentences; other measures of a criminal law nature; differentiation and individualization of punishment; convicted persons; correctional facilities
