A word acquiring new meaning in 1991 is: COMMUNITARIANISM. Local citizens are scared of crime, and some are arguing that expansive notions of civil liberties must yield to community rights at times. Communitarians contend, for example, that civil libertarians should abandon objections to measures such as drunk-driving check-points, antiloitering ordinances, prosecuting drug-using pregnant women and police questioning of "suspicious" persons to combat rampant drug and alcohol abuse. They also want to make divorce laws more "prochild" by making it harder for couples with kids to untie the knot. 3, record 1, English, - communitarianism
