Abstract
The relevance of work is due to a comprehensive study of the meaning of the criminal-law and criminalistic concepts of crime in the detection and investigation. The purpose of work is to analyze the criminal-law and criminalistic concepts of crime as systems, as well as to consider their main elements. The implementation of this purpose is achieved by using the laws of dialectics, formal logic and using of general scientific and private scientific research methods. We examine such criminal-law and criminalistic categories as crime, elements and body of crime, criminal activity, and mechanism of committing a crime. We define and study their specific elements, in particular, in the criminal law concept of a crime, such legal categories as “elements of a crime” and “body of crime” are considered. The criminalistic concept of crime is characterized by the criminal activity of the subject, which is investigated through such categories as mechanism of crime, method of committing a crime, situation, mechanism of trace formation, identity of perpetrator, tools and means of crime. We consider the relationship of studied characteristics and their significance in solving problems of detection and investigating crimes. We conclude that the comparison of elements of criminal-law and criminalistic concepts of crime allows us to assert that in both cases different elements are considered in importance for them, but in the end they determine one thing – the body of crime.
