Abstract: The article actualizes the potential of constitutive criminology in research and practical contexts. In domestic science, constitutive criminology remains so far a “lady under the veil”. In this regard, the author considered it possible, when disclosing the topic stated in the title of the article, to focus on the features of this relatively new direction of modern criminology, gradually moving towards determining the possibilities of applying constitutive criminology in research and organizing the practices of probation services. Addressing the potential of constitutive criminology when examining probation services means making the voices of convicts and ex-convicts audible in their interactions with probation services. It is suggested that the use of the potential of constitutive criminology in the study and activities of probation services will contribute to the humanization of criminal policy, as, indeed, to dialogue among supporters and opponents of constitutive criminology. Raising questions about the role of deconstruction, reconstruction of the texts of probation services and the creation on this basis of a substitute discourse for the resocialization of convicts and former convicts actualizes the topic of interdisciplinarity in criminology as a whole, its connection with such disciplines as sociology and linguistics.
