Abstract: The high scientific significance of the identified problem is mediated by the fact that Russian criminological and criminal legal sciences have not yet created their own fundamental strategy for preventing recidivism – a coherent and orderly system of theoretical knowledge about it, measures to control and counter this dangerous social phenomenon. Subject of research: the norms of domestic legislation regulating the special criminological prevention of recidivism; scientific developments, statistical material on the research topic. Purpose of research: formulate proposals for improving and increasing the effectiveness of measures specifically criminological prevention of recidivism, as well as filling the missing criminological knowledge about the prevention of this phenomenon. Methods of research: the article uses both general scientific methodological tools and private scientific methodological tools. The methodological basis of the study will be a systematic approach, within which a set of general principles and methods of scientific knowledge is used. Main results of research: the system of measures to combat recidivism was comprehensively analyzed, and an expansion of the scope of application of the existing punishment system was proposed. A person who finds himself in isolation undergoes certain changes, previously established social ties are disrupted, and upon release, serious problems often arise with adaptation to life. It is necessary to improve the domestic punishment system, but there is no need to radically change it, since the individualization of punishment has much more opportunities to be realized with the existing palette of punishments.
