Abstract
From the perspective of the humanities, liability emerges as a complex social phenomenon and is therefore analyzed using the methods and principles of individual doctrinal concepts, including the genus– species relationship among social, legal, and criminal liabilities. The idea of distinguishing between the positive and negative types of legal liability is critically evaluated. Legal and criminal liabilities arise in conflictual settings caused by a person’s negative attitude to public interests, which leads to the commission of an offense or a criminal act. The scope of criminal liability involves a combination of legal consequences for both the criminal act itself and any subsequent post-offense criminal conduct.
