Introduction. The relevance of the research topic is determined by the need to consider the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation as a system-based construct and its correlation with the category of the branch of criminal law. The paper explores the questions of whether these concepts are synonymous and what the difference is between them. The purpose of the work is to substantiate the thesis about the independent nature of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, its difference from other branches of criminal law, and the existence of its own system. The study of the General and Special Parts of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation as the constituent elements of the system of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is carried out. Methods. The scientific analysis of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation as a system is carried out using ontological and axiological approaches, the method of system analysis, as well as comparative legal and historical methods. As a result of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation consists of a set of articles but not rules of law. The philosophical correlation of the norms of criminal law with the category of the singular allows concluding that it belongs to an independent system of the branch of criminal law.
Key words: Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, system of law, General and Special Parts of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, criminal law norm.
