Abstract: During the school years, bullying is one of the most common expressions of violence in the peer context. Research on bullying begun more than forty years ago, when the phenomenon was commented as ‘aggressive, intentional acts carried out by a group or an individual repeatedly and over time against a victim who cannot easily protecthim-or herself’. Three criteria are relevant in order to define aggressive behaviour as bullying: (1) repetition, (2) intentionality and (3) an imbalance of power. Given these characteristics, bullying is often defined as systematic abuse of power by peers. It is regarded globally as a complex and serious problem.
