description The article substantiates the need to study violent crime motivated by hatred related to the war as a separate criminological category in view of the ongoing armed conflict on the territory of Ukraine, the annexation of part of its territories and open calls by the Russian authorities to destroy the Ukrainian nation, incite hatred to everything that identifies Ukraine as a sovereign independent state. The analysis of the transformations of violent crime based on hatred related to the war as a socio-legal phenomenon of modern society shows that the social price of its existence in our society is too high. Attention is focused on the fact that manifestations of violence and aggression in society pose a real threat to the stability of the existence of the entire human civilization, which carries potential threats to the national security of Ukraine, as well as to regional and global security. A definition of a violent crime motivated by hatred related to the war has been formulated, the content of its main essential features has been identified and disclosed. Trends in the development of this type of crime have been outlined as a basis for forecasting negative impacts on the relevant social processes in the future. The need to develop a balanced legislative approach to the correct understanding, recognition, detection and subsequent legally competent qualification of criminal offenses on the basis of hatred related to the war as a guarantee of their effective prevention and investigation is summarized. The need for further research to identify criminogenic phenomena and processes that determine the emergence and modification of violent crime on the basis of hatred related to the war, which is a necessary element of its study, has been proved. After all, this will make it possible to explain the nature of its emergence, the peculiarities of its internal content, options for further modifications, and, ultimately, the development of countermeasures.
