This article was originally written in early September 2005 and publushed in Russian in the book "The Price of the Hatred". The original version was translated into English in February 2006 without changes, except for some footnotes.
It has been three years since the enactment of the Federal Law on Combating Extremist Activity (hereinafter - the 2002 Law), and the initial experience of its application can be summarized.
The definition of extremist activity obviously relates to certain legal provisions, which are not directly mentioned to in the said law. These provisions include Art. 282 of the Criminal Code and provisions on various hate crimes. We will consider any offences treated under these provisions as extremist activity in the meaning of Art. 1 of the 2002 Law (hereinafter we use the term "extremism' and its derivatives in this sense only).
