This article analyzes the stages of the development of criminal law norms that determine responsibility for crimes against the freedom of a person. Freedom implies the ability of people to determine their own destiny, goals and aspirations, to realize them independently according to their subjective will. That is why in all periods of historical development, people have been striving for freedom and fighting for freedom and liberty. In this article, Hammurabi’s laws, the laws of Ancient Greece, the Roman Empire, Islamic law, the laws of the khanates in our country, the laws of the Emirate era, the laws of the Soviet regime, and the issue of responsibility for crimes against individual freedom are analyzed in detail. Specifically, a comparative legal analysis of the criminal laws of 1926, 1959, and 1994, which were in force in Uzbekistan that established responsibility for crimes against a person’s freedom have been conducted. In this case, the norms defining responsibility for crimes against the freedom of a person in the mentioned criminal laws have been analyzed, the different aspects of these norms from the norms defined in the current criminal law have been determined, and the issues of restoring the positive experiences existing in the processes of historical development and improving the current criminal law have been studied. The author put forward conclusions on these issues.
