Summary/Abstract: In the last few decades, terrorism, as a severe form of violence, has grown into one of the greatest and almost unsolvable challenges for individual states and the international community alike. The author has tried to contribute to a comprehensive scientific explanation of terrorism as a serious form of crime of violence and its phenomenological characteristics. The author points out that scientific research of the methods, contents, forms and phenomenological characteristics of terrorism may contribute to creating conditions for effective suppression and counteracting of this form of violence. The study of terrorism and its phenomenological characteristics is important because it leads to reaching a consensus on this form of violence and its main features, and in conjunction with the research on terrorism from the ideological, philosophical, ethical and other aspects, it ultimately creates sound grounds to successfully counteract terrorist activities.
