It should be notedthat along with the development of international civil aviation, the concepts: “Act of Unlawful Interference”and “Issues of Jurisdiction” are becoming increasingly popular. Illegal actions committed bypersons that threatened the safety of civil aviation and that affected the legal well-being of passengerson boards of aircrafts were not initially recognized at the legal level by international air law, therefore,it became problematic to qualify such actions, but due to the increased use of airspace and along withthe development of the transportation sector, it became necessary to form new approaches based onthe existing experience. This led to the creation of five conventions which are discussed in terms of theexercise of jurisdiction.","PeriodicalId":81646,"journal":{"name":"Journal of contemporary law","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139280917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Political tolerance, or the willingness to extend procedural liberties such as free speechand association to unpopular or disliked individuals or groups, has long been viewed as essential fora stable and effective democratic system. Political Intolerance exists everywhere, even in USA, butconstantly educating people and enacting appropriate laws help to keep the society on the right track.Although, tolerance has long been identified as a crucial feature of liberal democracies. The lack of politicaltolerance suggests that democracy is nothing more than a thin layer of varnish that can be easilyscraped away. Lack of political tolerance is a problem everywhere. Democracy upholds that membersof the society should treat each other and be treated as equals. It’s like an acceptance and respect ofthe other. In wide view political tolerance means accepting and respecting the basic rights and civil libertiesof persons and groups whose points and views are different from one’s own. Furthermore, peoplehave responsibility to practice political tolerance in their words and actions.
