Abstract

<jats:p>The article focuses on the links between criminal law and philosophy as well as the foundations of philosophy and criminal law. The author notes that in modern conditions criminal law can develop only relying on philosophy and shows how philosophy affects the understanding of the need to transform criminal law. Modern criminal law needs to be reflected. Life is changing, so the role of law in it is changing, too. Criminal law can no longer perform its functions in the way it used to. If we fail to understand this, we will not be able to move forward in our development. We will have to move a lot and quickly in the near future. Life is getting harder and faster, which cannot but please, since any movement makes our life longer.</jats:p>
