Complex criminological research of the features of crime prevention in modern Japan
Objective: at the beginning of the third decade of the 21st century, the overall crime rate in Japan remains the lowest compared to many economically developed countries, being low to moderate in most Japanese cities and rural settlements. To study the Japanese phenomenon of crime prevention, the author attempts a comprehensive criminological study of crime prevention in contemporary Japan.
Methods: general scientific methods and cognition techniques based on the collection and processing of empirical data were used to conduct the research. The theoretical basis of the study was made up of the Russian and foreign works dealing with the issues related to crime prevention in Japan. The methodological basis of the work was: modeling, analysis, synthesis, comparison, formal-logical approach, and private scientific methods, including historical method.
Results: in the course of the conducted research, the author came to the conclusion that, with stable traditions and historical experience, the Japanese authorities try to use all the available resources and innovative technologies to achieve the greatest possible efficiency in ensuring law and order in the society and to reduce crime by switching from a crisis model to a socially oriented preventive activity of law enforcement agencies.
Scientific novelty: it is expressed in a modern comprehensive analysis of the development and implementation of a system of measures for crime prevention in Japan. The conducted research made it possible to compare and understand the content of not only various procedures in the field of combating crime, but also made it possible to compare the Japanese positive experience and the concept of the Russian criminological policy.
Practical significance: the study of the positive experience of crime prevention in Japan will undoubtedly contribute to establishing interaction between the population and the law enforcement agencies involved into crime prevention in Russia. Additionally, the performed analysis is practically significant, since it may serve as the basis for studying the causes and conditions that determine crime in Russia. The study of the Japanese experience in the formation, regulation and implementation of criminological prevention will certainly provide an opportunity to use its positive results in the practice of authorities fighting against criminal manifestations in the Russian Federation.
