Abstract

The article presents an analysis of the victimological aspects of hooliganism committed in the Siberian Federal District for the period from 2015-2020. Among the results of the study, there is a low level of victimization from hooliganism in the SFO, while the rate of decline in this level is higher than in the Russian Federation. The characteristic of the personality of the victim of hooliganism is given. It was revealed that a typical victim of hooliganism is a relatively young man who is not married, who is in a state of intoxication at the time of the crime. Its moral and psychological characteristics allow us to speak about such a dominant type of victimization as victimogenic deformation of the personality. Despite the fact that the vast majority of victims were not familiar with the criminal, every fourth had some kind of connection with him, the main share of which is friendly and neighborly. Among the types of contributing behavior in a situation of committing hooliganism, the imprudent behavior of the victim is distinguished, as a rule, giving a minor reason for the decision to commit a crime. The consequences of hooliganism for the victim are mainly associated with causing him moral harm, property harm was caused in every fifth case studied; physical harm is not widespread (6%). The main victimogenic factors determining victimization from hooliganism are analyzed. About the Authors
