SECTION VII
RESEARCH PAPER
The final aim of post-graduates studies is submission of the dissertation for hearing at the session of the Academic Council. On the eve of the defense procedure abstract of the thesis is to be issued, it being a digest of the research made. In the abstract a researcher is to present certain scientific points since ab-stracts are designed in accordance with the established pattern. Thus, you should be able to state the purpose of your investiga-tion, define its subject, object, describe the methods applied, to ground its topicality and novelty, underline the results ob-tained, state your personal findings, the practical value and possibilities for further research and application.

In the extraction from scientific prose given below we hope not only lawyers but other categories of researchers will find useful expressions to speak about the aims of ones research. Find the essentials underlined for you.
The problem of crime is not new to our time, but its challenge has, in our age, progressed to increasingly disturbing proportions. For thousands of years a great many thinkers have tried to deal with this major social issue, but it is in our generation that crime has become everybodys concern. The ever-increasing rate and the expanded variety of lawbreaking have made virtually all of us potential victims. Thus, it is not really surprising that, in this flourish-ing era of criminal activity, a bewildering array of criminology textbooks have offered themselves to illuminate the crime problem. This volume proposes tobelong to that category of books.
This text, however, ventures to deviate in intent and orientation from most of the standard works in the field. Criminology textbooks have traditionally been of ambitious length in an attempt to cover the fullest possible scope and, perhaps, to create the illusion of presenting all relevant knowledge. Oddly enough, they might include swiftly changing statistical information, short-lived research results, and ephemeral theoretical constructs.
This paper is not intended to provide a comprehensive treatment of all de-tails and minutiae of the problem of crime. Instead, by drawing only essentialoutlines, it attempts to concentrate on a general and comprehensive under-standing of the whole.
