Criminological Analysis of Crime and Victimization of Minors in Modern Japan
( Pp. 170-177)

Criminological analysis of crime makes it possible to establish the true picture of criminal activity, identify trends in the development of crime, predict possible prospects and suggest ways to counteract it by identifying its causes. In parallel with the study of crime, there is an opportunity to analyze victimization in society. The article presents an analysis of juvenile delinquency in Japan, as well as its causes, its criminological characteristics are given and the victimization of minors in the country is considered. The empirical basis was made up of statistical data on crime in Japan, published in the open press. The paper uses scientific works of foreign authors on the covered problem. The conducted research allowed the authors to show effective types of police activities in the direction of countering and preventing juvenile delinquency. In conclusion, the authors come to the conclusion about the importance of social partnership between the police and the population in increasing the legal integration of society. Using the experience of foreign countries, it is possible to increase efficiency in the fight against crime in Russia. This was the purpose of the study conducted by the authors, which allowed us to formulate conclusions about the effectiveness of countering juvenile delinquency, as well as reducing the level of victimization of minors.
