There is a growing public disapproval of the recreational persecution and killing of wild mammals and birds who share with us basic emotional experience that conveys intrinsic value to their lives. Contrary to hunters’ propaganda, both scientific research and testimonies from prominent hunters-writers demonstrate that the thrill of killing is the main and ultimate motive of recreational hunting. The majority of simple-minded hunters are satisfied by any killing, including a canned hunt. However, some recreational hunters combine the killing drive with biophilia which makes them psychologically comparable to rapists. Both the thrill of killing and biophilia are primitive drives that evolved as adaptations in hunter-gatherers. Killing for pleasure (with or without biophilia) has always been evil in terms of both intentions and consequences. At present it is also barbaric in the sense of the opposite of civilization which progressed by increasing the control of primitive drives, in particular aggression.

The article deals with one of the most important problems of modern life − children's aggression, which becomes apparent in passively-aggressive, emotionally-destructive behavior and also as a result of physical and verbal insults at school, social-living space, in the child's close surrounding – family, game surroundings, etc. The presence of aggression in the child's behavior is always the reason of great problems in the process of communication, but the aggressive tendencies aren't to be evaluated only as negative phenomenon. Aggression can rise as well as subside on the background of the child's activity increase. It can become apparent occasionally in all children and it can indicate the kind of child's personal sphere disorder. Thus, aggression can help a child to develop the spirit of initiative. However, it can provoke reticence and hostility as well. The detailed analysis of the scientific theoretical approaches as for the determination of aggression gives the reasons to confirm that the majority of modern and classical scientists have analyzed the concept of aggression from two points of view: "the aggression" is any form of behavior aimed to the insult, doing harm to another living being, or "the aggression" is one of the forms of activeness, which can have positive or negative manifestation. That's why our investigation is dedicated to the analysis of the children's aggression from two points of view: positive phenomenon, which corresponds to the vital interest, self-defense, as well as negative, which corresponds to the cause of some suffering (harm) to any person or oneself. According to the results of the summary of the scientific methods, three types of aggression and six subtypes of aggression, and also their symptoms were found out: self-controlled types of aggression include controlled and completed subtypes of aggression; latent type – protective and depressive; behavioral type – demonstrative and physical. There have been discoveries of sides of aggression and the level of aggression shown in the children with normal physical and psychological development and also in the children with phonetic speech disorders (henceforth we use abbreviation: phonetic speech disorders – PSD), phonetic-phonemic speech disorders (henceforth we use abbreviation: phonetic-phonemic speech disorders – PPSD) and mildly manifested general speech disorders (henceforth we use abbreviation: mild general speech disorders– MGSD). The dependence between the level of speech disorders and peculiarities of different types and subtypes of aggression in the tested junior schoolchildren with normal speech, with PSD, with PPSD and with MGSD is determined. The general level of aggression awareness in junior pupils with normal and disordered speech is studied.

Przedmiotem tekstu jest analiza strategicznej strony dręczenia rówieśniczego. Punktem wyjścia do rozważań jest konstatacja, że coraz częściej różni autorzy i badacze tego fenomenu dochodzą do wniosku, że działania sprawcy dręczenia mają charakter wyraźnie instrumentalny i zaplanowany. W tekście uzasadniam potrzebę takiego przesunięcia punktu ciężkości w zakresie oglądu tego zjawiska koncentrując się szczególnie na zagadnieniu dominacji społecznej oraz funkcji poszczególnych zachowań agresywnych oraz dokonuję przeglądu prac badawczych, które dostarczają (w sposób bezpośredni i pośredni) dowodów na potwierdzenie tych założeń. Na zakończenie przywołuję koncepcję działań przymuszających (coercive actions) opracowaną przez Jamesa T. Tedeschiego i Richarda B. Felsona, za sprawą której mogą być wyjaśniane instrumentalne działania agresywne występujące w bullyingu.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the strategic side of the peer bullying phenomenon. The starting point for considerations is the observation that more and more authors and researchers in this area come to the conclusion that the behaviours of bullies are clearly instrumental and planned. The text justifies the need for shifting emphasis in the overview of the phenomenon by focusing particularly on the issue of social dominance and the function of aggressive behaviours as well as a review of empirical study that provide (direct and indirect) evidence to support these assumptions. At the end, the concept of coercive actions developed by James T. Tedeschi and Richard B. Felson is mentioned, through which instrumental aggression occurring in bullying can be explained.
