The paper treats the semantics of jumps and block expressions in ALGOL- like languages. The author uses the generalization of conventional semantic domains to functor from the category of ``possible worlds'' to a category of semantic domains. The use of continuations in this generalized framework is discussed. A formal system for reasoning about programs with jumps is introduced and, finally, an open problem is presented.
