Sigurnost kao pojam ima višestruke značenje. To je veoma složen i kompleksan društveni fenomen. Etimološki gledano, sigurnost kao pojam potiče od latinske riječi "securitas-atis" što znači: pouzdan, stalan, čvrst, odan, predan, autentičan, konstatan i slično. Naznačeni termin poslužio je i kao temelj, fundament za upotrebu u teorijskom izučavanju teme sigurnosti u mnogim zemljama. Isti termin, na engleskom jeziku koristi dva izraza: security i safety. Izraz "security" ima upotrebu i značaj u smislu nacionalne sigurnosti, što implicira i čuvanje državnog nacionalnog interesa. Shodno tome, izraz "safety" ima značenje ili sposobnost preventivnog djelovanja, kako ne bi došlo do nepoželjne sigurnosne situacije. Sam razvoj doktrine sigurnosti povezan je sa rješenjem niza filozofsko-metodoloških i teorijskih problema. Kao jedan od njih, pojam sigurnosti je integrativni faktor koji podrazumijeva sve vidove sigurnosti (političku, pravnu, ekonomsku, geopolitičku, vojnu, socijalnu, demografsku, informacionu, ekološku, generičku i druge), ali koji se nikako ne svodi na njihov prosti zbir. Ako bismo sigurnost shvatili kao istinsku ljudsku vrijednost, potrebu ili interes, došli bismo do slobode kao najvišeg ideala i univerzalne definicije suvremenog ljudskog progresa. Iako je definirana još od davnih vremena, sloboda je uključivala građansko pravo za odlučivanje o javnim stvarima, kao i o predmetima zaštite i sigurnosti. Dakle, sigurnost je zasigurno jedan od glavnih motiva čovjekove aktivnosti i društva uopće, kako u prošlosti tako i danas. To je globalni izazov suvremene epohe.

Tako se ustvari u Kur’anu Asaf nadaje kao pravi i istinski čudotvorac, čudotvorac Stvarnosti. Ono drugo znanje koje svoj simbol traži u Ifrītu također je legitimno ukoliko se koristi u dobre svrhe, ali pravo znanje je znanje o Stvarnosti, znanje koje Bog daruje kome On hoće a uskraćuje ga kome hoće. Zato Asaf brže od treptaja oka donosi prijesto pred cara Sulejmana. To je znanje koje i jeste brže od treptaja oka jer ono ne poznaje granice ovog svijeta, pa čak ni granice svih drugih svjetova, koliko god da ih ima. Privatnost je prema islamu strogo zaštićena i nepovrediva. Šta čovjek priča u svojoj kući ostaje tajna između njega i njegovog Gospodara i to nije moguće sankcionisati niti cenzurisati. Čovjeku ostaje na savjest da vidi o čemu će sanjati i šta će pričati u svojoj vlastitoj kući. Nije li upravo i Poslanik, a.s., u jednoj od svojih izreka rekao da je dozvoljeno izbiti oko onome ko viri kroz ključaonicu tuđe kuće. Nije zabilježeno da su muslimani, izuzmemo li lažnu optužbu da je Omer, r.a., zapalio Aleksandrijsku biblioteku, sistematski palili knjige niti da je islamska civilizacija proizvela nešto poput inkvizicije, krstaških ratova, aparthejda, fašizma i nacizma. Kada su kršćani počeli sa progonima i mučenjima muslimana u Španiji, sultan je od šejhul-islama tražio fetvu da mu dozvoli da i on to isto uradi kršćanima u Osmanskoj carevini, ali mu šejhul-islam to nije dozvolio jer je to protivno Kur’anu.

Keywords: institutional distance; cross-border region; transborder cooperation
The aim of the article is to illustrate both causes and consequences of the presence of institutional distances (competence inadequacies), and to provide their classification regarding the cross-border administrative regions of the neighbouring countries. From the presented considerations, one can conclude that the institutional distance in the case of such regions may: • endanger the development (enforce the peripherality) due to the lack of competence of the surrounding areas, • represent opportunities (stimulate development), for the surrounding areas as they are characterised by the excess of the competencies. Trying to overcome the institutional distance may become a premise for reforming the regional division and the system of the administrative regions of the neighbouring countries.

Keywords: banking and finance; foreign capital; state capital; mergers and acquisitions; Lerner index
The aim of this study is to estimate the impact of foreign capital on competition and concentration. The Lerner index has been used as a mesure of competition. Concentration was analysed using concentration indices (i.e., concentration ratios [CR5] and the Herfindal- Hirschman indices [HHI]). Before the financial crisis, a wave of mergers and acquisitions, which also affected the banking sectors of Central and Eastern Europe, resulted in a decrease of the role of the state in the banking sector, including its role in the Polish banking sector. Empirical analysis shows that foreign capital had positive impact on competition indices in the period 1997-2009. For the period 2010-2012 the results are ambiguous. The same channels (prior to and during the financial crisis), which impacted changes in competition within the banking sectors of euro zone countries, had an impact on the Polish banking sector due to the involvement of capital from the euro zone.

Keywords: monetary policy; globalisation; inflation target; base rate
The purpose of the article is to show if the monetary policy of the last fifteen-year period, i.e. at the time of globalization of economies and financial markets turmoil, has led to convergence of the goals and directions of changes with regard to the fundamental instruments affecting economy. The analysis covered highly-developed countries and selected intensively developing economies. The research was based on information about the goals (gathered from 33 central banks) and data concerning basic interest rates employed by 16 central banks, inclusive of EBC. The study pointed to a convergence of the goals and directions of changes with regard to the fundamental instrument, particularly in the Eurozone, the Great Britain, Scandinavian countries, the United States and Canada, as well as South Korea.

Keywords: rural areas; development; cohesion policy; Common Agricultural Policy
Rural areas have a very important collective function providing a lot of public goods. The aim of this elaboration is to point out rural areas as the regions of specific government intervention. The essential aspect of the work is to present how local authorities perceive rural areas in the realization of sustainable development concept in particular regions. In this work the method of analysis of EU and national documents and descriptive method was used. Financial means for the realization of Cohesion Policy in rural areas can be allocated to the development of water and sewage infrastructure, water management system, development of enterprises, as well as social and infrastructural revitalization of villages. In the ROP LV the thematic objectives and investment priorities for rural areas were set, yet the key for distribution of funds to be allocated to particular investment priorities in urban and rural areas has not been determined so far.
