Abstract [eng] This paper analyses the concept of penal policy, the factors that influence criminal policy, and tendencies of criminal policyin the period 2010-2021 in the areas of sentencing regulation and suspension of sentences. Given that the formulation of criminal policy in a country has a significant impact on the daily lives of individuals and creates the preconditions for a safer society and country, there is a need for a more detailed analysis of criminal policy. During the period under review, a number of important changes have been made in the areas of sentencing regulation and suspension of sentences, and these changes have also influenced the content and application of other criminal law legislation. The Master's thesis is structured in three main parts. In the first part of the thesis, the positions presented by criminal law scholars are analysed in order to show what the concept of criminal policy is, what influences the formulation of criminal policy and what constitutes the content of criminal policy. Much attention is paid to the concept of criminal policy in order to understand who shapes it. It also focuses on the processes of criminalisation and penalisation, as it is often stated in doctrine that this is what forms criminal policy. The second part of the Master's thesis analyses the tendencies of criminal policy in the field of penal regulation in the period 2010 - 2021. The analysis provides an overview of the changes in the criminal law in the field of sentencing in the period under review. This part of the thesis analyses the changes in the criminal law and examines what reasons have led or may have led to the will of the legislator to change the criminal law. This analysis also examines the position of criminal law scientists in relation to the amendments made. The third part of the Master's thesis analyses the tendencies of criminal policy in the field of suspensory sentencing in the period 2010-2021. The analysis examines the changes in the criminal law in the field of suspension of sentence during the period in review. This part of the thesis also analyses the reasons behind the legislator's desire to change the criminal law. The analysis also focuses on a review of the position of criminal law scientists and an analysis of case law.
