Summary/Abstract: Traditionally, the basic criminal sanction is imprisonment, which is why in many legal systems the branch of law that is traditionally designated as criminal law in our country is called criminal law. If they would consider the prison sentence as the basic or dominant criminal sanction, then they could relatively easily label all other criminal sanctions as alternative. One of the more current issues of criminal law is the issue of alternative criminal sanctions. Alternative criminal sanctions mean all those sanctions that are an alternative to the penalty of deprivation of liberty and which are also followed by the penalty of deprivation of liberty as an instrument to ensure compliance with the imposed alternative criminal sanction. When it comes to criminal sanctions, in order for a certain criminal sanction to be considered an alternative, the existence of a primary criminal sanction is necessary. In the paper, we talk about the advantages and characteristics of alternative criminal sanctions, as well as divisions based on various criteria and their role in criminal legislation.
