Abstract

The paper is devoted to the study of the problems of financially motivated and financially motivated violent crimes conducted by juvenile offenders. The study is based on an analysis of statistical indicators of convicted minors for such crimes, taking into account the determining factors behind their commission. The authors used a method of generalization and analysis of statistical and theoretical data, as well as judicial practice data. The analysis resulted in the conclusion that, along with the downward trend in overall juvenile delinquency, there has been an alarming increase in financially motivated and financially motivated violent crimes committed by minors. It is concluded that there is an urgent need to develop measures to optimize the mechanism for countering crime, primarily of a financially motivated and financially motivated violent nature, due to its sustainability. The main directions of the prevention of juvenile delinquency are given, and the need to develop a more advanced mechanism for the interaction of all subjects of preventive activities with each other is emphasized, since preventive measures can be effective only with an integrated approach. Among such measures, the most important is the early prevention of juvenile delinquency, which consists in strengthening the role of the educational process in the education of children and youth.
