Abstract

The article discusses current issues of preventing women’s crime as the most humane and rational way to combat crime. The main directions of female crime prevention are analyzed, which include legal, economic, political, social, ideological and psychological measures. The reasons for the insufficient effectiveness of current measures to prevent women’s crime are indicated. The analysis provided the basis for the formulation of some recommendations on its basis to improve the effectiveness of the prevention of women’s crime, in particular, the creation of a separate unit specifically engaged in the study and prevention of this type of crime and coordinating the activities of its subjects. It is concluded that it is necessary to jointly develop a more advanced mechanism for the interaction of all subjects of preventive activities among themselves, since preventive measures can be effective only with an integrated approach.
