In the work “Anarchism and Feminism”, written by the Spanish sociologist Carlos M. Abella, the anarchism theory is given — he writes about how anarchists understand the concepts of love, sex, wisdom, motherhood, about how much they mean to women. The Spanish anarchism from 1880-1890 till the end of the Civil War (1936-1939) and the ideas of Enma Goldman are analyzed. The regard is paid not only to the anarchist theory, but to the diurnal practice, too.

The Amor libre concept means the equality and freedom both for men and women, but this doesn’t mean disorder and slackness, how the section of conservative society is inclined to think.

Delinquency of the juvenile is one of the most important problems in Lithuania. Especially prompt increase in crime was noticed in 1994-1997. In 1998 comparing with the year 1991 the number of the crimes committed by the juvenile more than doubled. Behavior of the children mostly depends on the success of the socialization process. Sociologists are trying to find out what the most important causes are. And, without any doubt, the family is the basic social structure where the child grows and which dictates certain behavior models to him. That’s why the influence of the family is especially important in the process of holding up the crimes committed by the juvenile. The changes in the family, including divorces, the death of parents or one of the parents, are considered the most important events, which can have a great impact on delinquency of the juvenile. You may read about it in the article Juvenile Delinquency and the Family written by Marija Snieèkutë.

In the 80-s several inquiries, which helped to uncover the appearance of the crime of a new type — terrorism oriented at the Mass Media, were held. As it turned out, the attacks are often produced so as to draw attention of the international Mass Media. Hostage capture is a very useful mean if somebody wants the terrorism to be more attractive. The hostage himself means nothing to the terrorists because the terrorist act is oriented at the audience that is watching the cause of events, not at the victims.
