ABSTRACT: Migration of many aspects of human life and work into the online sphere has become an integral part of everyday life and it is difficult to imagine the functioning of any aspect of life without the Internet and the space in which most human interactions take place. One such large and significant new form has created a large number of smaller ones, and conditioned the transformation of things and phenomena from the physical world into completely new digital forms. The same happened with violence, as a phenomenon, a pattern of behavior and a part of human nature from the very beginnings of civilization, which took its new form being called a digital violence. It does not necessarily have to be online, but it is necessarily related to digital devices. To the problem of digital crime there should be added a digital violence as a contemporary problem, especially when we talk about legal regulatory mechanisms, although these two phenomena, with frequent overlaps, do not necessarily have to be contained in each other, but they are equally important. Online and offline digital spaces represent just a new field in which violence and crimes are committed, but the virtual characteristic of these spaces is only an additional specific feature, because their consequences are felt in the physical, real world, and in that sense, the border between virtual and real is invisible. This paper aims to explore the ontological determinants of violence and digital violence, to identify specific forms of digital violence and digital crime, as well as to analyze existing regulations aimed at combating digital violence and digital crime. REZIME: Migracija brojnih aspekata ljudskog života i privređivanja u on- lajn sfere postala je neodvojivi deo svakodnevice i teško je zamisliti funk- cionisanje bilo kog aspekta života bez interneta i prostora u kome se odvija najveći deo ljudskih interakcija a koji on omogućava. Jedna tako velika i zna- čajna nova forma stvorila je veliki broj manjih, i uslovila transformaciju stvari i fenomena iz fizičkog sveta u sasvim nove digitalne forme. Isto se desilo i sa nasiljem, kao fenomenom, obrascem ponašanja i delom ljudske prirode od prapočetaka civilizacije, koje je dobilo svoju novu formu koju generalno zo- vemo digitalnim nasiljem, a koje ne mora nužno da bude onlajn, ali je nužno vezano za digitalne uređaje. Digitalnom nasilju kao savremenom problemu treba dodati i problem digitalnog kriminala, naročito kada govorimo o prav- nim regulativnim mehanizmima, iako ta dva fenomena, uz česta preklapanja, ne moraju nužno da se sadrže jedan u drugom, ali su podjednako važna. On- lajn i oflajn digitalni prostori su samo novo polje u kome se vrše nasilje i kri- vična dela, ali virtuelnost tih prostora predstavlja samo dodatnu specifičnost, jer se njihove posledice osećaju u fizičkom, realnom svetu, i u tom smislu, granica između virtuelnog i stvarnog je nevidljiva. Ovaj rad ima za cilj da istraži ontološke odrednice nasilja i digitalnog nasilja, da identifikuje specifič- ne oblike digitalnog nasilja i digitalnog kriminala, kao i da analizira postojeću regulativu namenjenu suzbijanju digitalnog nasilja i digitalnog kriminala. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode 2021 https://unilib.phaidrabg.rs/o:2008 doi:10.5937/ptp2104016B ISSN: 0352-3713 eng Pravo - teorija i praksa vol. 38 br. 4 str. 16-32 Bjelajac, Željko M.
