Global information space as a factor of the forced spread of religious-political extremism

The purpose of this study was to study the problems of the violent spread of religious and political extremism in the youth environment through the global information space. The paper considers the factors that form the basis of religious and political extremism, which is a type of illegal political activity that is motivated or camouflaged by religious postulates or slogans. The objectives of the study: an attempt was made to analyze the impact of the global information space on the spread of religious and political extremism. Among the reasons are the high speed of dissemination of information; the ability to reach a wide audience, the ability to create your own content and post materials anonymously, the use of loopholes in inconsistencies in the laws of the world, etc. At the same time, it was found that it is in the global space that new members are recruited and recruited into religious and political extremist organizations. Conclusions: in order to effectively counter this phenomenon, it is necessary to oppose the clearly coordinated and coherent work of the state and the public. At the same time, the role of the state is a set of subjects and regulatory legal acts governing the activities to identify, prevent and suppress religious and political extremism, as well as the disclosure and investigation of these crimes.
