Based on the statistical data of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation and the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation on recidivism in Russia and the Siberian Federal District (hereinafter referred to as the SFD), the main indicators of recidivism crime are determined - the level, structure of the dynamics and conclusions are drawn about the state and trends in the development of recidivism in the SFD and its individual subjects. The article shows that increased rates of recidivism are recorded in the Siberian Federal District, there are differences in the structure of recidivism from all-Russian crime. The conclusion is made about the increased rates of recidivism in the Siberian Federal District and individual subjects included in its composition, the features of the structure of recidivism in the Siberian Federal District and its differences from the all-Russian crime are highlighted. It was found that the volume of recidivism and persons who had previously committed crimes in the Siberian Federal District increased throughout the study period. The proportion of recidivist crimes in the Siberian Federal District in the total number of those investigated is the highest in the country. The largest number of recidivist crimes is registered in the Kemerovo region, Krasnoyarsk and Altai territories, Irkutsk region. The recidivism rate per 100,000 people in the Siberian Federal District is 1.5 times higher than the Russian average; in some subjects of the Siberian Federal District it exceeds the same indicator in the country to an even greater extent (the Republics of Altai, Tyva and Khakassia). It is argued that the most recidivist subjects of the Siberian Federal District are regions with a high level of general crime: the Republics of Tyva, Altai and Khakassia, where recidivism rates are 2-2.5 times higher than the national average, the level of general crime exceeds the Russian indicator by 1.9, 1, 6 and 1.5 times, respectively. In the structure of recidivism in the Siberian Federal District, a large share is occupied by crimes against life and health, as well as crimes against traffic safety and transport operation. In addition, compared with Russian indicators, the Siberian Federal District has a higher proportion of probationers among those who have committed a relapse. In the subjects of the Siberian Federal District, in which the share of crimes against property is higher than the national average, crimes against life and health occupy a relatively small share.
