СRIMINAL REPETITION: DENIAL OF DENIAL

The article is devoted to the institution of repeated crimes, traditional for Russian criminal law, effective, but excluded at one time from the criminal law. For a certain time, criminal repetition existed only as a scientific category. In the General part of the Criminal law, only certain signs of repetition are mentioned, but there is no definition of it, as well as legal regulation. The need to strengthen counter-action by criminal legal means to certain types of crimes contributed to the beginning of the process of returning norms with a sign of repetition to a Special part of the Criminal Code of Russia. The tendency to expand and increase the number of such norms in the future will require the development of appropriate general provisions. The causal conditionality of the full-fledged return of the institution of repetition to the criminal law is revealed, a possible solution to this issue is proposed.
