Abstract

The article presents a description of three works by Professor I. M. Ragimov devoted to the philosophy of crime and punishment, the reflection of crime and punishment in world religions and the death penalty, comprehensively and fully representing the philosophical, legal and theological views of the scientist; in some cases, the development of the doctrine of the dichotomous link “crime – punishment” is shown, which allows us to emphasize the fundamentality and scientific novelty of the author’s research.
