Abstract

The paper examines the modern "image of the victim" in criminal procedural law; indicates the communicative vision of values ​​within a specific legal reality and the relationship of the victim in criminal proceedings (as a carrier of values) with this legal reality, as well as communicative equality as a key component of the value of "victim image" to be provided by the legislator.

Considerable attention is paid to the theoretical foundations of the development of the problems of criminal-procedural communication of the victim. It is noted, that procedural communication is a category that within each individual legal situation - criminal proceedings - certifies and integrates the concept of legal values ​​in the sectoral (criminal procedure) norm.

It is emphasized, that the axiologization of communication processes in criminal proceedings, in particular, criminal procedural communication of the victim, is designed to create a communicative vision of values ​​within a specific legal reality and the relationship of the victim in criminal proceedings (as a carrier of values) with this legal reality, or in other words, to create the “image of the victim" in criminal procedural law, and values ​​- an integral part of such an image.

It points to communicative equality as a constitutive value of the modern "image of the victim" in criminal procedural law, which must be ensured by the legislator
