Abstract

The article is devoted to a scientific analysis of the legally determined dependencies of the state of ensuring respect for the dignity of convicts and manifestations of criminal radicalism on their part. It has been established that dignity is a fundamental moral and legal category that determines the key supporting, meaningful points of the entire metaconstruct of modern secular legal understanding of any type. Inequality in ensuring proper legal mechanisms, guarantees of recognition of dignity for different categories of citizens is a significant factor of discrimination and a factor of radicalization of the environment of convicts. The state is obliged to guarantee all convicts, regardless of the type of prison, the possibility of exercising the right to respect for their dignity in terms of short-term travel outside the penal colony due to exceptional circumstances. The opinion is advocated that the introduction of changes and additions to Part 1 of Art. 111 of the CEC of Ukraine should correspond to the introduction of a legal mechanism for individual criminological prediction of the behavior of those sentenced to life imprisonment, other convicts serving their sentences in correctional colonies of the maximum security level.
