This article analyzes the issue of liability for juvenile hooliganism in the experience of foreign countries. Additionally, the article analyzes the criminal law experience of foreign countries based on a comparative legal methodology, examining international standards of liability for juvenile hooliganism and the specifics of national legislation. Additionally, the article analyzes how the issue of juvenile delinquency is resolved in accordance with foreign legislation and international standards. In the article, the author touches upon international standards and UN requirements for foreign countries, expressing his opinion that international legal standards are methodologically important in determining criminal liability against minors, and the "Minimum Standard Rules for the Administration of Juvenile Justice" (Beijing Rules), adopted by the UN General Assembly, should be considered a fundamental guiding document in this field.
