Abstract:
Such a socially dangerous concept as «extremism» requires a detailed study not only of the causes, but the interpretation of the concept itself. Many scientists of the world community define extremism as a commitment to extreme views and beliefs. The basis of the term itself is the Latin concept of extremus, the end or edge. Analyzing further the etymology of the concept, it is possible to define it as a solution to any problems by means of extreme, maximalist measures. Here the second designation of the term «extremism» appears as an application extraordinary, irreconcilable ways in resolving contradictions. In itself, extremism is very categorical and does not perceive other points of view, considering only its own position to be correct. Of course, supporting one’s position does not make a person an extremist and a terrorist. Nowadays, the words «extremism» and «terrorism» are often heard, but they interpret these concepts completely differently, and more often - arbitrarily, depending on a particular situation. Sometimes the concepts of «extremism» and «terrorism» are brought together, using as synonymous words. Sometimes they relate only in terms of: terrorism is treated as a kind of extremism. A common vision of the «role» of extremism and terrorism is seen as, extremism is a theory, an ideology of terrorism, and terrorism is the practical embodiment of extremist ideas.
