Abstract. Over the past years, sport events and competitions have been gaining attention not only as remarkably useful social activities and means of constructive affirmation of youth's physical abilities, but in a negative context as well. We are witnessing a growing number of forms of disorder, violence, misbehavior and commission of criminal offences and misdemeanors i.e. administrative offences related to sport events. That is the reason why, in an attempt to prevent and suppress these forms of misbehavior, the Republic of Serbia adopted a special law in 2003 – The Law on The Prevention of Violence and Misbehavior at sport Events. This law is dedicated to the regulation of relationships between sport associations, clubs and individuals, as well as the system of rights, obligations and responsibilities for organizers, participants and spectators of sport events. The most serious forms of violence and misbehavior at sport events are referred to as criminal offences and strict punishments and other types of criminal sanctions can be imposed on their perpetrators, which is the issue discussed in this paper.
Key words:  sport, sports event, misbehavior, criminal offence, criminal sanction
SUZBIJANJE NASILJA NAVIJAČA NA SPORTSKIM PRIREDBAMA
Godinama unazad sportska dešavanja i takmičenja dobijaju na značaju ne samo kao izuzetno korisne društvene delatnosti i načini za pozitivnu afirmaciju, u prvom redu, fizičkih sposobnosti mladih, već i u negativnom svetlu. Svedoci smo sve brojnijih oblika nereda, nasilja, nedoličnih oblika ponašanja, pa i vršenja krivičnih dela i prekršaja koji su vezani za održavanje sportske priredbe. Stoga je i Republika Srbija u pokušaju da spreči i suzbije ovakve oblike nedoličnog ponašanja 2003. godine donela poseban Zakon o sprečavanju nasilja i nedoličnog ponašanja na sportskim priredbama. Ovim su zakonom uređeni odnosi sportskih udruženja, klubova i pojedinaca, kao i sistem prava, obaveza i odgovornosti za organizatore, učesnike ili posmatrače sportskih manifestacija. Najteži oblici nasilja i nedoličnog ponašanja na sportskim priredbama su propisani kao krivično delo za čije učinioce su propisane stroge kazne i druge vrste krivičnih sankcija o čemu upravo govori ovaj rad.
