Relevant norms of Roman law in Russian civil legislation
Abstract
Background. The article examines the impact of Roman Law principles on contemporary Russian civil legislation. The authors analyze key legal institutions, such as principle of bona fides, easements (servitutes), contractural obligations (pacta sunt servanda), and inheritance law, tracing their continuity and adaption with the Russian legal framework. Special attention is given to the relevance of these institutions in the context of economic digitalization and the development of market relations.
Materials and methods. The study is based on comparative legal, historical legal, and systematic methods, which allowed the authors to conduct a detailed analysis of the evolution of Roman legal norms and their reflection in the Civil code of the Russian Federation. The paper emphasizes the universality of Roman Law, which continues to serve as the foundation for modern legal constructs, despite its centuries – old history.
The conducted research has revealed a significant influence of the norms of Roman law on modern Russian civil legislation.



State and legal bases of investigation of minors in the Russian Federation (procedural aspect)
Abstract
The relevance of the study lies in the need to develop effective tactics for examining minors due to the increasing number of crimes against children and adolescents, as well as the peculiarities of the physiological and psychological development of this category of persons. The effectiveness of state measures in law enforcement activities depends on compliance with legal procedures and the protection of the rights of minor participants in criminal proceedings. The authors have identified the problem of the place of examination in the system of criminalistic tactics in criminal procedure and doctrinal aspects. The main research method is an analytical review, which includes the systematic collection of information, its analysis and interpretation from various sources. The purpose of the study is to develop optimal tactics for conducting an examination of minors that meets the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation. The result of the study is the development of recommendations on the tactics of conducting an examination of minors, including optimal algorithms for the interaction of medical professionals and law enforcement officials, the procedure for informing parents or legal representatives, and compliance with the principles of humanism and justice. The key conclusion of the study is the thesis that when conducting an examination of minors, the general provisions of the inspection tactics are applied. The investigator, taking into account the personality of the special subject, must make decisions to conduct an examination that does not violate the underage's unformed psyche.



Public legal regulation of the specifics of the survey in the Russian Federation
Abstract
The relevance of the research lies in highlighting the public legal regulation of the specifics of the survey in the Russian Federation. Since the examination is an important procedural action that ensures the establishment of facts relevant to the criminal case, and its proper conduct guarantees respect for the rights of the participants in the process and the reliability of the evidence obtained, since modern realities require constant improvement of the examination procedures, since their quality depends on the effectiveness of the investigation of crimes and the fairness of the trial. The authors have identified the problem of lack of uniformity in the conduct of the examination procedure. The main research method is an analytical review, which includes the systematic collection of information, its analysis and interpretation from various sources. The purpose of the study is to identify the features and problems that arise during the examination in the criminal process of the Russian Federation, as well as to develop recommendations for improving this procedure. The result of the study is the identification of a number of shortcomings of the existing inspection system. The key conclusion of the study is the thesis that the procedural design of the examination requires further elaboration and unification of legal norms.



Juvenile system: Legal status of convicted persons in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Korea
Abstract
This article is devoted to a comparative analysis of the juvenile legislation of the Russian Federation and South Korea. The article examines the specifics of regulating the protection of the rights of minors, approaches to solving problems of family problems and methods of social support for children and families. The research is aimed at identifying similarities and differences in approaches to the protection of children's rights, as well as determining the prospects for the development of the domestic child protection system in the light of international experience. The paper also highlights the features of the juvenile justice system that regulates the legal status of juvenile convicts in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Korea. The existing limitations and advantages of both systems are analyzed, the legal statuses of convicts are compared, and the prospects and directions for the further development of juvenile justice in Russia are studied.
Methods. The following methods of scientific knowledge served as the methodological basis of the analysis:
Historical method: the study of the historical context of the formation of juvenile legislation in Russia and South Korea.
Document analysis: a study of legislative acts, international treaties, court decisions, and expert publications.
The study is conducted using the method of comparative analysis of the Russian and South Korean experience, since both countries are at the stage of active modernization of their legislation, striving to integrate the best international practices and at the same time preserve their national identity. The scientific novelty of the study is an attempt to identify key points of contact and fundamental differences between the systems of the two countries, which makes it possible to propose realistic steps to bring positions closer and deepen mutual understanding.
The study on the comparison of the juvenile system in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Korea is highly practical for the following reasons:
The main aspects of practical significance:
- Analysis of international experience
It is important for Russian specialists to study successful international practices and implement positive elements in the domestic judicial system. The Republic of Korea is known for its progressive methods of preventing and correcting deviant behavior among minors, such as rehabilitation centers and specialized courts.
- Improving the effectiveness of juvenile justice
Studying the features of the Korean system will help Russian authorities to improve the efficiency of working with juvenile offenders, reduce the level of recidivism, and promote successful re-socialization of young people.
- Improving Russian legislation
The identified shortcomings and positive aspects of both systems will allow for the necessary amendments to Russian legislation aimed at
Results. Based on the results of the analysis, the following list of possible areas for improving the Russian juvenile justice system is proposed:
- improving the material and technical base of correctional institutions, ensuring decent conditions of detention and high-quality medical care.
- development of a network of specialized medical and psychological centers for the diagnosis and treatment of juvenile convicts.
- Strengthening the system of social adaptation and vocational rehabilitation by expanding employment programs and educational courses.
- The implementation of these measures can improve the effectiveness of the juvenile justice system, reduce the number of recidivism and ensure respect for the rights of juvenile convicts.
Russian legislation remains fragmented, there is a shortage of budget funds for rehabilitation programs, a low level of material equipment in correctional institutions, and poor coordination of efforts between judicial authorities and social services. The South Korean model appears to be more optimal and rational in terms of social protection and reducing the number of recidivism among juvenile convicts.
