Summary: | Using information and communication technologies is one of the basic
competencies of modern people. The Internet has enabled the download and
sharing of data in digital form, learning, information, business,
entertainment, and inclusion in social networks. However, the development of
the Internet has also led to the emergence of various forms of digital
violence. Minors who cannot adequately react to this violence are
particularly susceptible to victimisation. The subject of this paper is the
phenomenon of peer violence in the digital environment, viewed from a
victimology perspective. The paper presents the basic phenomenological
characteristics of this form of violence and the typology of victims and
perpetrators. This paper aims to point out the importance of a victimology
approach to the problem of cyber violence and the need to implement programs
to prevent violence and protect victims of peer violence in the digital
environment. By comparing the characteristics of perpetrators and victims in
the digital environment, we can gain valuable insights that can contribute
to the prevention of this form of peer violence. |
