o:1902 On certain criminal-legal specific characteristics of corruption in Republic of Serbia O pojedinim krivično-pravnim specifičnostima korupcije u Republici Srbiji en ABSTRACT: Corruption is a negative social phenomenon being present in all societies and states, and which can be found in all layers and relationships within a society. Corrupt practice, as an ubiquitous negative social phenomenon, certainly has its political, sociological, criminological, legal and other aspects. Bearing in mind the fact that the widespread corrupt practice significantly erodes the foundation of society, the allowance of its both survival and deepening necessarily results in the abandonment of democracy, democratic values, legal certainty and the rule of law. Therefore, every legislator, including the legislator in Republic of Serbia, prescribes various material and procedural legal measures trying to suppress corruption in the country. This paper looks at certain criminal law specific features of the incrimination of corruption at both the international and national level, but also at certain procedural aspects of prosecuting corruption crimes. In this sense, there is involved the competence of the specialized prosecuting and judicial authorities, including special evidentiary actions that are regularly used in discovering and prosecuting corrupt criminal offenses. REZIME: Korupcija je negativna društvena pojava koja je prisutna u svim društvima i državama, a koja se može naći u svim slojevima i odnosima unutar jednog društva. Koruptivna praksa, kao sveprisutna negativna društvena pojava, svakako, ima svoje politikološke, sociološke, kriminološke, pravne i druge aspekte. Imajući u vidu činjenicu da raširena koruptivna praksa u znatnoj meri nagriza osnovu društva, to dozvoljavanje njenog opstanka i produbljivanja nužno rezultuje napuštanje demokratije, demokratskih vrednosti, pravne sigurnosti i vladavine prava. Zato, svaki zakonodavac, uključujući i zakonodavca u Republici Srbiji, propisuje različite materijalna i procesno pravne mere kojim se nastoji suzbiti korupcija u zemlji. Ovaj rad se osvrće na pojedine krivičnopravne specifičnosti inkriminisanja korupcije na međunarodnom i nacionalnom nivou, ali i na pojedine procesne aspekte gonjenja za koruptivna krivična dela, i to u pogledu nadležnosti specijalizovanih organa gonjenja i pravosudnih organa, ali i u pogledu posebnih dokaznih radnji koje se u otkrivanju i gonjenju koruptivnih krivičnih dela redovno koriste.
