Abstract In recent years, the number of serious violent crimes in China has generally decreased, but the problem of extremist crimes remains undeniable. Unlike extremist crimes globally, those in China possess distinct particularities and complexities. By sorting out the legislative status quo and historical evolution, this paper attempts to scientifically define the connotation and extension of extremist crimes in China, construct a framework of “social environment impact – individual psychological evolution – criminal behavior formation” from a multidisciplinary perspective, and conduct an in-depth analysis of the causal mechanism of extremist crimes in China. On this basis, it constructs a governance plan against extremist crimes in multiple dimensions, including but not limited to primary-level governance, technical supervision, multi-dimensional prevention and control, and transnational cooperation, to respond to new trends faced in the current governance of extremist crimes in China, such as social structure changes, online psychological polarization, and technology-empowered cross-border dissemination, aiming to contribute Chinese wisdom and Chinese solutions to global governance in this regard.
