To the question of the connection between the social environment and the identity of terrorists

The article proves the connection between the social environment and the identity of terrorists, its influence on methods of combating terrorism and crimes of a terrorist nature. As a result of the study, the authors offer a multivariable mechanism for developing an effective strategy and tactics, which consists of taking into account the components of the “terrorist experience”, criminal motivation, and well-established stereotypes of the social environment of terrorists. The authors conclude that the commission of terrorist crimes is determined by the relevant causes and conditions existing in society as a whole and in the system of relations that arise directly in the part of being related to terrorism. According to the authors, when studying the problem of terrorism, it is important to consider, along with the motivation, personality and environment of the terrorist, the methods of committing a terrorist crime, the criminological determination of the connection between the social environment of terrorists and the identity of terrorists. The authors believe that the identity of the terrorist and his social environment should be evaluated from the point of view of an inseparable whole, which is especially important when analyzing terrorist activities and developing effective solutions in the fight against terrorism.
