Prospects applicability in 2017 forced labor determine the interest of scientists for comprehensive assessment of the feasibility and desirability of introducing this new form of criminal punishment. Require a thorough analysis of its preventive features, similarities and differences from those already available in the criminal code and the code of punishments. Advantages of «forced labor» as type of criminal penalty are in possibility of replacement of imprisonment for «forced labor» that answers a tendency of a humanization by which all criminal policy is penetrated now. By means of this type of punishment it is possible to lower significantly number of prisoners in imprisonment places. The decision on application of «forced labor» compels executive authorities of a message construction of the corrective centers that in itself in the future considerably will lower load of imprisonment places which are crowded today, and will give the chance to make reconstruction of colonies and insulators, having re-equipped them according to the existing standards of the maintenance of prisoners. Shortcomings of «forced labor» as type of criminal penalty are reduced to that the order of serving of «forced labor» a little than differs from a serving order «imprisonments with serving of punishment in a colony settlement», and it significantly complicates process of differentiation of two types of punishments. On the appointment bases (and they identical) «forced labor» and «imprisonments with serving of punishment in a colony settlement» representatives of judicial authority can appear in a difficult situation as to choose motivated from these two types of punishments that corresponds to the committed crime, it will be quite difficult. As this type of punishment has more than advantages, than shortcomings, it is worth supporting the legislative initiative of inclusion of this type of punishment in system of punishments. But to change the name «forced labour» to «the direction in the corrective center» as it reflects its contents more precisely.
