Two different types of specific crime objects are presented: 1) specified crime object comprising related direct objects of a few crimes limited by one generic object; 2) specified crime object comprising direct primary and secondary objects limited by separate generic objects. It is offered to divide crimes against public security into four groups: 1) establishment and participation in criminal organizations (Art. 255, 256, 257, 2583, 260 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine); 2) terroristic acts (Art. 258–2585, 266 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine); 3) crimes involving violations of special regulations for use and storage of dangerous items and substances (Art. 261–2651 , 267–270 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine); 4) other crimes against public security (art. 259, 2701 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
