Characteristic and Conditions Facilitate to Occupational Crime

The article analyzes the state of the characteristics and conditions that contribute to professional crime at the present stage, its trends and patterns of development, examines the roots, origins of the formation of criminal behavior and the history of the development of professional crime in Russia. In general, professional crime is distinguished by a number of features related to the causes of professional crime, the personality of a professional criminal, as well as to the specifics of preventing professional criminal activity. The purpose of the presented study is to consider the issues that arise in this area regarding the characteristics and conditions that contribute to professional crime, as well as its recurrence, where the fight against it is an important task of society and the state. The significance of this struggle is determined by the particularly negative influence of recidivists and professional criminals on the reproduction of primary crime and, thereby, on the aggravation of the criminal situation in the country; an increase in the commission of grave and especially grave crimes, the number of which exceeds 60% in the structure of all crime. The solution of this problem is complicated by the peculiarities of the personality of recidivists and professional criminals, the persistence of their antisocial attitude; continuation of criminal activity, despite the measures taken to it; the use of decisive and skillful criminal actions; the harmful influence exerted on unstable persons, the spread of the criminal subculture. On the basis of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that an essential condition for professional crime is the fact that state and public organizations are not working hard to involve people released from places of deprivation of liberty in a morally healthy environment, to isolate them from the influence of antisocial elements. After serving the sentence, convicts are usually met with a negative attitude from society. Without purposeful work with people who have served their sentences, it is impossible to protect them from harmful contact with professional criminals who have remained at large. Encountering a wary attitude towards themselves, they begin to seek communication among their own kind, which leads to the commission of new crimes.
