Annotation.

The article is devoted to the problem of understanding such a principle of penal law as differentiation and individualization of the execution of punishments. The work analyzes the theories on this issue available in the theory of penal law. By studying the means of differentiation and individualization of punishment, we can conclude that it is possible to increase their effectiveness when executing a sentence of imprisonment. Differentiation and individualization of the execution of punishment consists in changing the volume of punitive influence on the convicted person. Having examined the means of differentiation and individualization, we argues that their effectiveness in executing a sentence of imprisonment is not at a high enough level. The article also presents proposals for amending the current criminal legislation.
