Abstract

The modest purpose of this paper is to elaborate the phenomenon of school bullying and to try to give an answer to questions that remain open over time because of the seriousness of this issue. A child is being bullied when he or she is exposed repeatedly over time to aggressive behavior that intentionally inflicts injury or discomfort through physical contact, verbal attacks, fighting or psychological manipulation. Besides finding the proper definition of bullying, we’ll give a comparative approach to the etiology and phenomenology of bullying and answer why do some children bully and others not. Hence, the existence of power imbalances in a school community makes bullying possible but not everyone uses their greater power to bully someone. Also, essential for this phenomenon is its international and national normative framework and manners to prevent bullying in schools. We’ll also elaborate school bullying in Macedonia through its policies, strategies, school protocols and programs for the protection of children from bullying and for reducing bullying in schools.
Key words: school bullying, violence, power, crime, legislative, prevention.
