Barrack Hooliganism (Art. 335 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). Article 1. On the History and Essence of the Issue

The author studies the concept of barrack hooliganism (abuse, bullying, hazing) understood as the aggregate of obviously illegal demonstrative attempts of some military servicemen to establish control over other military servicemen by applying mental, physical and sexual violence (shadow law). An in-depth study of this subject gives grounds to conclude that barrack hooliganism is not just a historical category but an international one.
