Abstract
The article analyzes the aims pursued by injured persons in compensating them for moral damage in the form of monetary equivalent in the pre-revolutionary (pre-Soviet) period, the Soviet period and at present. The civil punishment for personal offense in the pre-revolutionary period and the practice of using the received money by the victim in that period and at present are investigated. It is concluded that in recent times the institute of compensation for moral damage is used only for personal purposes, sometimes for property enrichment and even “consumer extremism”.
