The impact of information about hate crimes against social groups on the psychological well-being of a person: generalization of international experience
In this paper, a meta-analysis of modern concepts in the field of the formation of the idea, implementation and coverage of crimes based on racial, ethnic, religious hatred is carried out. The article shows that the presence of hatred towards certain groups of the population, depending on racial, national, religious or other prerequisites, is a factor of stress and deterioration of health not only for representatives of these groups, but also "hate groups". At the same time, it was shown that manifestations of this hatred do not manifest themselves without additional "informational" influence. At the same time, all age groups can experience these complex emotions, but at the youth level they can lead to the commission of violent crimes under the influence of alcohol or drugs. In conclusion, it is concluded that the solution at the level of informational impact of the problem in the expression of any kind of hatred can lead to an increase in the psychological well-being of the population, a reduction in the risk of diseases, a decrease in the likelihood of stable alcohol or drug addiction. At the same time, it is necessary that the prevention of such information is prevented both at the level of off-line and on-line sources.
