Abstract
Modern globalization also has a number of negative consequences, among which it is worth highlighting the prevalence of individual crimes, which, against the background of an active dialogue between states, have become transnational in nature and the relevance of combating them is no longer limited to individual geopolitical regions. This is what terrorism which has long affected most states of the world, is like nowadays. Of course, for some regions the problem of combating terrorism is more relevant due to a number of factors that contribute to the development of terrorist organizations on their territory, for others it is less relevant, and affects some countries only indirectly. However, these patterns are temporary, and therefore all international organizations and national law enforcement structures are currently working on counter-terrorism mechanisms. In modern domestic and foreign legal literature, there are many studies on the problems of terrorism. Some authors focus on countering certain types of terrorism (religious terrorism, cyberterrorism, etc.), others pay special attention to the problems of improving international and domestic legislation in this area, and others evaluate the effectiveness of modern mechanisms for countering terrorism. However, considering the complexity of the analyzed criminal act, it seems necessary to explore modern mechanisms for countering terrorism, taking into account the theoretical and legal foundations of this process and the achievements of law enforcement practice in this area. In addition, it seems appropriate not to limit ourselves to the national system of combating terrorism in Russia and to analyze international standards on the stated issues. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to solve the following scientific, practical and methodological problems in the following areas: the study of the theoretical and legal foundations of countering terrorism in the modern world; study of the current legal framework for countering terrorism; consideration of international legal and national mechanisms for counterterrorism; study of the national system of counterterrorism in the Russian Federation.
