Kalashnikov culture is a term commonly used to describe the glorification of gun violence and the embrace of military culture. This phenomenon has its own set of synonyms based on the culture and language in different parts of the world. In the United States, it is referred to as gun culture, while in Russia, it is called "Avtozakovka" or "gunsmithing." There are also other equivalent terms such as Arms culture, Gun fetishism, weaponisation, and Militarisation. These words are used interchangeably but carry the same meaning. All of them emphasize the dangerous and destructive aspects of Kalashnikov culture. It is important to address this issue and promote peace, understanding and non-violent conflict resolution.
