Abstract

The stages of commission of criminal offense have raised a number of questions. The merits of the discussions dedicated to this issue mostly include the problem of demarcation of generally unpunishable preparatory actions and attempts of criminal offenses. However, it is no less important to pay attention to the aporia that refer exclusively to the stage of preparation of a criminal offense. Primarily, it is noticeable the abundance of pro et contra arguments for punishment for actions at this stage. Then, the models of incriminating preparatory actions are different. Legislation regulating this institute in the provisions of both the general and special part is identified, as well as legislation that does so only through incriminations. And within of these constellations legal solutions are not identical. In addition to the above, the paper discusses whether the incrimination of actions from the stage of preparation of a criminal offense is really the ultima ratio in modern criminal law.
