Abstract
In today’s world, the frequency of political extremism is increasing, and there is a growing number of actions that pose a threat to the security of states. The spread of extremist crimes is one of the most serious threats to the Russian state. Therefore, the main task of law enforcement agencies is to use various criminal and criminological measures to combat political extremism. In order to combat political extremism, it is necessary to implement measures to counter this phenomenon in all areas of public life and to take timely educational and preventive measures. Legislative measures to combat political extremism are complex in nature, and their content can be understood by analyzing the current legislation. The article examines the content, essence, and main features of political extremism, and explores ways to overcome political extremism in Russian society.
