ON SOME ASPECTS OF THE METHODOLOGY OF COMBATING THE IDEOLOGY OF TERRORISM AND CYBERTERRORISM IN THE AMONG RUSSIAN UNIVERSITIES (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE ALTAI STATE UNIVERSITY)

Abstract

After the pandemic of the new coronavirus infection, marked by the «lockdowns’ of 2020, the crimesituation both in Russia and in the world has reached a qualitatively new level. We can say that the thresholdof population tolerance predicted at the 12th UN Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice byV.V. Luneev. Once again, the dialectical law on the transition of quantitative changes to qualitative ones wasconfirmed. It should be noted that this process continues to increase its pace in 2021: all large branches ofcrime are going into cyberspace. On this basis, the strengthening of the interaction of civil society institutionsand law enforcement agencies, especially among the youth, is becoming increasingly important. It is youngpeople who are a potential «risk group» in terrorist and cyber-terrorist crime, primarily as an object ofrecruitment. But it is young people who are the most active users of information and telecommunicationnetworks, including the Internet. In this regard, it seems that the priority lies precisely in the environment ofcivil society institutions that directly work with young people. And one of the main institutions is secondaryand higher education, and it is the network of universities that can become the flagship of the formation ofanti-terrorist ideology and skills in countering cyber terrorism.
