Abstract
We stand for the institution of property as for the natural right institution necessary to attain order and prosperity of human society. However, we have to admit, that nowadays the institution of property is in danger, as well as two pillars supporting any social order — the family and the state. The attitude of many people to property is hostile, while too many others are indifferent and not interested in it. What has caused such a phenomenon, both strange and dangerous and worrisome? And what should be done to bring things in order again?
