Abstract: International legislation in the sphere of prevention of drug crime defines national anti-narcotic policy of the states. It is aimed at bringing the national legislations into accordance with the model laws of the UN and the CIS on fighting unlawful turnover of controlled substances and abuse of such substances. Ratified international conventions serve as a limiting factor against termination of national control over narcotic drugs, and they protect children, teenagers and the youth from abuse of narcotic substances and drug crime. However, in some states legalization of marijuana is being lobbied by introduction of the state regime of controlled tolerance towards it.

Keywords: youth drug crime, international cooperation, institutional interaction, conventional interaction, illegal turnover of drugs, transnational crime, marijuana legalization, fighting organized crime, aiding the youth, prophylactic activity.

Abstract: The current economic situation in Russia causes high level of social tension among various social groups, and alienation of the part of society, which is “deprived” by the government economic policy providing for such an unfair situation. In such a situation the limiting potential of morals and law lessens considerably, and the society stops having its limiting influence upon a person, therefore, anomy appears. Based upon the above-mentioned prerequisite the article provides for the structure and characteristic features of the modern poor social groups, and their criminogenic potential is evaluated. Based upon large amount of empiric materials, including the results of the polling among the convicted criminals all around Russia, the authors prove a number of traditional criminological theses on the connection between unemployment and the level of crimes, and the exceedingly high expectations of persons before the moment when the crime is committed producing a high level of tension and motivation for commission of crimes. At the same time the position is voiced, according to which the level of crime cannot be lowered solely by economic means. The results of this study may be used in the process of development of an unified concept of crime prophylactics in Russia.
