The article will talk about issues such as hooliganism and vandalism. The concept, causes, motives, types, examples - all these topics will be discussed further.
Any actions that are illegaland unacceptable to perform in public places, can be called hooliganism. At a minimum, such behavior expresses disrespect for other residents of the city, as well as infringement of their rights. Considering the criminal code of the Russian Federation, it must be said that article 213 on the prohibition of hooligan actions implies an arrest (up to 5 years) in case of its violation, a fine or correctional labor.
Vandalism can be attributed to similarunlawful situations. However, this concept implies the desecration or destruction of any property that has received enormous cultural, historical or other value. The object may belong to both an ordinary citizen and the state (society).
Comparative characteristics of hooliganism and vandalism are presented later in the article.
Extremism
What is hidden under the concept of extremism? Such is the tendency of an individual or an entire group to follow and promote radical life, attitudes and attitudes.
Extremism and extremist activityIt becomes interesting to people who are trying to bring new life into society, rules, redirect it to another channel. Sometimes their motive may be the desire to overthrow the current government and take it into their own hands. However, not always people with radical opinions pursue positive goals. That is why extremism is punished at the legislative level. The motivation of violators is fundamentally different from that of those who comply with all government regulations. Such behavior can pursue both personal goals and group. When a person finds himself in such a society, he rethinks his values, adopts certain features of behavior, sets new tasks for himself. During extremist meetings, everyone takes an active part in the discussion, where everyone proposes his own solutions, ways of implementation. As a rule, people exchange opinions, experiences and some knowledge. Leaders use the means of suggestion and persuasion. They will help to quickly direct a person to decisive action. Hooliganism and vandalism are varieties of extremism, this is how propaganda happens.
What is hooliganism?
If we take into consideration the legislation of the Russian Federation,By hooliganism is meant a serious disturbance of order in public places, which vividly shows the attitude of the criminal (or group) to other residents - disrespect. Violence is often used, both moral (threat) and physical. Often, offenders destroy other people's property. By their notions, hooliganism and vandalism are quite similar. Types of hooligan actions: malicious, especially malicious.
When it comes to such an offense askind of extremism, then certain things should be understood. Petty hooliganism, related to administrative responsibility, has nothing to do with criminal-pursued classes. Similar can be called the use of swear words on the street or in other public places, harassment of citizens, which is really classified as offensive, and other similar actions. A person will be liable for such violations in accordance with the administrative code (article 158).
Hooliganism and vandalism - speciesextremism, but the motives for each crime are different. Why does the offender commit his actions? Often the following factors are motivating for him: the desire to be a leader or to be noticed, an insult "to the whole world" (most often this is the cause of adolescent extremism), a special desire to seem strong and brave, to have fun. Sometimes hooliganism can be committed due to a dislike for one or another person.
Article 213
Hooliganism committed with a weaponor any other items that can cause harm, in order to show their racial, ideological, national hatred or enmity towards any group of people, are punished with three kinds of restrictions. What will be applied depends on the severity and intent of the crime. Criminal liability for hooliganism (and vandalism too) in Russia is not truly serious:
- Mandatory work may be assigned. The minimum period is 180 hours, the maximum is 240 hours.
- Correctional work is often used. They are appointed for a period of 1 to 2 years.
- If the violation is too severe, the court may impose imprisonment. The maximum period is 5 years.
If the action is performed by a group of persons inthe result of collusion with the desire to resist the current government (or, in order to harm any other person involved in the protection of order), imprisonment is used as a punishment. The maximum period is 7 years.
Vandalism
People who, with or without a specific purpose,destroy various kinds of values, called vandals. This type of activity can be easily attributed to extremism, which is punishable by the relevant law of the current code of the Russian Federation. Vandalism, the occurrence, nature and types of this act - the questions are quite complex in the legal field, but relevant.
What can be called the defining featurecrime? At a minimum, the spontaneity and irrationality of all actions, which as a result bring enormous consequences. Looking at everyday situations that have already become standard for society, one can see that vandalism has begun to “merge” with hooliganism, in which someone else’s property is spoiled.
Section 214
Due to the fact that vandalism is considered a less serious crime than hooliganism, the punishment for it is mitigated.
Desecratormonuments, may receive three months of arrest, a year of correctional labor, no more than 360 hours - mandatory or a fine of about 40 thousand rubles. If the offender is unable to provide the full amount, the court may force him to give some share of the salary for 3 months.
Actions classified as vandalism mayperformed as a group of people, or separately by any citizen. If they are carried out with the desire to infringe upon a certain race, political direction, nationality, and so on, then the court can use one of the three punishments (restriction of freedom, complete deprivation of it, compulsory corrective work). Which one will be chosen depends on the severity of the crime. The maximum term of each sentence is 3 years.
Varieties of Vandalism
Существует большое количество классификаций offenses, however, consider the most well-known of them, which are related to such actions as hooliganism and vandalism. The views are the same for everyone, except that the first atrocity has a more extensive list.
Such an act can be considered the following:
- burning books;
- graffiti;
- destruction and other desecration of graves;
- arson churches;
- damage or complete destruction of spiritual values.
Graffiti
Drawings on houses or other places thatbear a negative meaning, are propagandizing and so on, can be completely called hooliganism, for which any person will be held responsible. Vandalism in this case is manifested in damage to the property of an ordinary citizen or the state.
Tagging is widespread. What it is? Tegging - the process of applying the author's signature on any surface. This is done in a few seconds, as a person quickly attracts attention.
За бомбинг также есть возможность получить срок or fine. Nothing special, this technique does not stand out. She distinguished by the fact that the author (s) uses (s) only two colors of paint. One is necessary for the general filling, the second - for the contour.
There are disputes now, graffiti is art.or is it vandalism? Often, authors get what they deserve only if their drawing has a negative meaning. Law enforcement agencies rarely deal with the guys who just put some uncomplicated and unremarkable pattern on the fence.
Vandalism and extremism of adolescents
Most often extremism among adolescents occursas a result of constant quarrels or conflicts at home. Other motives may include the following factors: influence from persons authoritative for a child, peers, parents with radical opinions. In addition, the causes of hooliganism or vandalism can be tension, stress, and mental features (strong suggestibility or too pronounced aggression). The state is actively working to reduce the spread of extremism among adolescents, as it is the most vulnerable link in society. In order for preventive measures to be successful, you need to understand where your thoughts come from to engage in such actions. Hooliganism and vandalism are varieties of extremism that are so popular among young people.
Vivid examples of teenage rebellion: drawing graffiti, street fights, strikes, arson, violence of various kinds and so on.
Preventive measures
Since young people are often engaged in extremismpeople, although it is common among adults, can be called quite effective prevention. Children and adolescents are easily influenced. This is due to a weak psyche, which due to age has not yet strengthened, as well as the lack of solid beliefs and goals in life. An unapproved position is something that often misleads a teenager from the right path and leads him to such offenses as extremism and vandalism. Prevention in schools and other institutions is extremely important. You cannot do without it. But we should not forget about parents who can accidentally bring the child to extreme situations. Therefore, such preventive work should be carried out with them.
Comparison of vandalism and hooliganism
An important distinction of hooliganism can be calledtarget. The danger of this crime lies in the fact that as a result of its implementation, public peace is disturbed. Moreover, the rights and freedoms of a resident of the Russian Federation may be affected, which is unacceptable.

Vandalism is a danger that does not affect personal human rights. It aims to desecrate the wealth, monuments and other values, both spiritual and material.
