Одређење екстремизма из угла теорије политике
Definition of Extremism from the Point of Theory of Politics

Summary/Abstract: In this article author defined the notion of extremism from the point of theory of politics, while emphasizing its original equivocation. Regarding the definition of extremism the theory of politics has not given significant contribution so far, and instead of it, it has limited itself on the commentaries and descriptions of extremism and its manifestations, objectives and participants. The author analyzed fundamental characteristics and causes of political extremism and its consequences on socio-political system from multidisciplinary point of view. Although it has been tolerated only as a marginal phenomenon in one society, as a rule, extremism has appeared in times of crisis and in such times it has been intensified to the point of being unbearable and unaccepted. In addition, extremism has been expressed in the form of militant exhibitionism, caused by fear of impersonality, to the point of negation of personal identity.
