Abstract

The purpose of the article at both theoretical and practical levels are: first, the intensified and purposeful development of problematic issues of socio-legal and criminological scientific thinking, taking into account the tasks of preventing the crimes committed in the field of physical culture and sports; second, the concentration of attention on the formation of a clear definition of the competent circle of subjects and participants of this preventive activity. The purpose of the article is to analyze the victimological prevention of crimes in the field of physical culture and sports. A general analysis of victimological crime prevention was conducted. The list of crimes that  directly causes physical, material or moral harm to athletes is determined by committing them to crimes: as a result, only sportsmen and sportsmen fall victim to casualties, as well as casualties to both ordinary citizens and athletes. Based on the motivation, the classification of athletes who have been victims of criminal offenses has been conducted and the directions of victim victim prevention in this area have been proposed. Methodology. The methodological basis of the study is the dialectical method of scientific cognition, which allows us to consider the legal, functional, organizational and procedural aspects of crime prevention, interconnection and interplay. On this methodological basis, the article also applies certain scientific methods of cognition. Using the logical-semantic method, the conceptual apparatus of the theory of crime prevention was deepened, the essence, features and significance of victim-psychological crime prevention in the field of physical culture and sport were determined. Using the system-structural method, the state, structure and main trends of crime prevention in the field of physical culture and sports in Ukraine were investigated. The structural-logical method is applied to determine the main directions of improvement and optimization of victimological prevention of crimes in the field of physical culture and sports in Ukraine. The scientific novelty of the obtained results is that, for the first time, the article comprehensively, using modern methods of cognition, taking into account the latest achievements of legal science and practice of crime prevention, developed victimological measures for crime prevention in the field of physical culture and sports. Conclusions. General victim-prevention measures are aimed at identifying victim-specific factors and taking measures to eliminate or neutralize them, ie to identify the causes and conditions of victimhood related to the protection of the interests of potential victims in general, and to eliminate the causes of victimization. In general, the problem of protection of the rights and legitimate interests of victims of crime, the effective restoration of their rights, and compensation for the harm caused by crime, which has been investigated since the mid-1990s due to the increasing rate of crime, remains unaddressed. in the field of physical culture and sports in particular.
