Mechanisms of determination of armed violence in the modern world

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to investigate the mechanisms of determination of armed violence in the modern world. The relevance of the study lies in the fact that Ukraine and civil society are experiencing many global problems as a result of the armed conflict, aggression, and violence on the part of Russia, which affect the level of security and life in the country. To stop the escalation of armed conflict and violence, it is necessary to identify the causes of its occurrence. The topic of the study is revealed through the prism of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The general scientific, philosophical, and special methods and approaches were used in the research process. The basic approaches to the study of the topic were systemic and structural-functional. To achieve this goal, a number of tasks were performed. In particular, the work of other scholars was analyzed and the author's own definitions of the concepts of “armed conflict” and “armed violence” were formed. To determine the causes of the escalation of the armed conflict during the Russian-Ukrainian war, the subjective factors that can be influenced and changed were analyzed. The subjects of armed violence during a full-scale war were identified.
