Abstract: The subject of the research is the legal acts that regulate the basis and procedure of bringing parents or other legal guardians of the under aged to administrative responsibility. The object of the research is the social relations that may arise as a result of establishment or implementation of administrative responsibility for non-performance of сhild-rearing and maintenance responsibilities by parents or other legal guardians. The authors of the article analyze such aspects of the topic as the analysis of legal acts regulating administrative responsibility of parents or other guardians of the under aged. The methodological basis of the research implies the dialectical materialistic method of research and general and special research methods based thereupon such as comparative law, formal law methods, analysis and synthesis. As a result of their analysis of administrative laws that regulate bringing legal guardians of the under aged to administrative resopnsibility, the authors suggest to change the sanction of Part 1 of Article 5.35 of the Administrative Offenses Code of the Russian Federation for repeated violations of law, in particular, to increase the fee or impose an administrative arrest as an alternative punishment. According to the authors, this would allow those who perform preventive measures to be more efficient in their work with dysfunctional families and parents who avoid child rearing and maintenance. In addition, the authors raise the issue about making an amendment to Article 20.22 of the Administrative Offenses Code of the Russian Federation that would regulate the process of bringing parents or legal guardians of the under aged to administrative responsibility if an under aged use tobacco. This amendment to Article 20.22 of the Administrative Offenses Code of the Russian Federation, according to the authors, would enable more efficient preventive measures aimed at both under aged and their legal guardians.

The article demonstrates the guarantees of a welfare state set within the constitutional legislation of Spain, as well as within legislation of its autonomous communities. The author examines the content of the concept of welfare state as one of the foundations of a constitutional structure and as a constitutional legal principle. Analysis is conducted on the history of formation of a welfare state in Spain starting from XVIII century – the rule of King Charles III of Spain, throughout the fascist Franco’s regime, and modern time. The scientific novelty consists in designating Spain as a “welfare state” not only in juridical (legislative) definition of a state that enacted and practices welfare policy, but also as a state that has a real, vast number of instruments in addition to just welfare policy. Based on analysis of the legislation, the author makes conclusions on the peculiarities of the welfare statehood of Spain: the system of social insurance is created with the special accent on covering the elderly working population; mandatory medical insurance is enacted mainly for employees in the industrial sector earning wages below a certain level; employment insurance applies mostly to the male workers.
