Abstract
The purpose of the study is to identify the main trends in the humanization of modern Russian criminal justice.
The methodological basis of the research is the universal dialectical method of scientific cognition, which made it possible to study the subject of research in relation to other legal phenomena, as well as general scientific methods of cognition (analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction) and private scientific methods of cognition.
Conclusions. The author comes to the conclusion that the main trends in the humanization of modern Russian criminal justice are the formation of a stable judicial practice of widespread use of preventive measures alternative to detention; the development of compromise and alternative ways of resolving criminal law conflicts that allow to compensate for the damage caused by the crime and avoid stigmatization of the person who committed the crime, as well as ensuring access to justice in conditions of modern digital society.
