Summary/Abstract: The subject of the paper is the consideration of the criminal offence of violent behaviour in the criminal material law of Bosnia and Herzegovina from the theoretical, normative, and practical aspects. The paper first analyses the historical development of the criminal offense of violent behaviour in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The central part of the paper is a detailed analysis of the criminal offence of violent behaviour in Bosnia and Herzegovina from de lege lata aspect. Special reference is given to the semantic contextual analysis of the provision and the presentation of possible modalities of actions for committing this criminal offence, the consequences of the offence and the presentation of the legal position of court practice. The paper presents a criticism of certain court decisions in which the significance of the consequences of the “act of threat to civil peace“ have been unjustly reduced. Finally, de lege ferenda proposals are presented with the aim of more fully regulating the criminal offence of violent behaviour in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
