Abstract
Anger is a fundamental emotion. It is also one of the basic human emotions,
namely one that is experienced by all people. Fear, anger, sorrow, joy, disgust,
acceptance, anticipation, and surprise are among the most cited to take part in the basic
emotions range. (Picard, p. 6) Anger is considered a natural and mostly automatic
response to adverse acts. The present article will, therefore, look into how to better
understand anger, its origins as a basic human emotion, its biological and psychological
characteristics, and its place in the life of the individual and of the community, as well as
in a cultural system we may share and inherit. Last but not least, it is our intention to
identify and describe various strategies and techniques used by educators, coaches and
therapists in teaching and promoting anger management and to highlight those
strategies and interventions that might also prove useful for the daily routine of different
segments of first-liners working with children and youth vulnerable to radicalisation and
violent extremism.

Keywords: management, anger, first line practitioners, radicalisation.
