The State of Criminality in Tajikistan

Abstract

The research analyzes the quantitative and qualitative components of criminality, and focuses on the 27-year period of the evolution of criminality in independent Tajikistan. Criminal policy and statistics are examined through the prism of theory, history, practice, figures and facts, contemporary achievements of the legislation and prospects for the development of a modern society. The authors propose different variations, cite and compare the points of prominent criminologists and independent experts in the context of their accuracy and timely application. Additionally, a detailed analysis of registered crimes indicates a radical revision of the domestic system’s registration discipline, in particular, and criminal policy in general. The research analyzed the “pros” and “cons” of the social control of criminality as well as specified the collection, processing and thorough analysis of statistical data. The research takes timely decisions and a transition to the digitalization format of the entire criminal policy process. The context of the study is compatible with the strategic goals and objectives of reforming the internal affairs bodies of the MIA of the Republic of Tajikistan, which follows from the contents of the Police reform strategy for 2013-2020, the Police reform (development) program for 2014-2020, and other adopted regulatory legal acts and developed projects of these documents
