Russian Federation
Almost twenty years of operation of the Federal Law no. 114-FZ of July 25, 2002 “On Countering Extremist Activities” provide grounds for demonstrating the currently formed strategy of countering organized forms of extremist activity, presented in the development of the process of criminalization and criminal-legal adaptation of the acts enshrined in Articles 2821 and 2822 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). The reproductive potential embedded in them made it possible to improve the mechanisms for combating the spread of extremist communities and extremist organizations. At the same time, the continuing growth of protest sentiments, an increase in the number and an increase in the level of organization of extremist communities and extremist organizations require the continuation of modernization of the course of criminal policy in this area. This is possible both by eliminating existing intra-industry conflicts and by deeper differentiation of responsibility.
