Cyber violence – issues of concept and criminalization

The article raises the issues of unification of the concept of violence in the Internet space. The author proposes to consider this concept through the prism of an integrative (interdisciplinary) approach. This approach will make it possible to use new and borderline knowledge about violence in the Internet space, developed in other industries, to define the legal concept of such violence. The paper notes that the legislator has developed sufficiently effective measures of criminal and administrative responsibility for offline violence. At the same time, violence in the Internet space remains outside the scope of legal regulation of responsibility, which does not provide effective protection for victims of such an abundance.
