Bezpieczeństwo na polskich śródlądowych obszarach wodnych – współczesne uwarunkowania

Author(s): Jerzy Telak,Oksana Telak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 8.2/2018

There is a need for safety among basic human needs. It is a duty of a state to provide conditions for development and protection against threats. Strategic objectives in this area include ensuring universal safety, improving and developing the national crisis management system as well as civil protection system. Poland’s membership in the European Union resulted in the implementation of Community legislation, including laws in the field of security and crisis management. Staying on a water area carries the risk of losing life by drowning. In Poland, several hundred people lose their lives every year in cases of drowning. The International Life Saving Federation (ILS) works in the field of preventing drowning and development of rescue sport, with the assumptions of combining and supporting national organizations (associations and federations). The legislator, creating legal provisions in Poland, did not take into account full international achievements in the field of water rescue. The formalized safety system includes public and general safety with the supervision over water rescue, however safety of people staying on water areas in Poland is regulated by law and implementing regulations. In order to obtain opinion on the possibility of increasing people safety on Polish water areas, research was carried out in 2017 with groups of student’s respondents in Szczytno.

Dobro wspólne jako racja istnienia władzy publicznej

Author(s): Agata Kołodziejska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 9.1/2018

The principle of the common good indicates the first constitutional value, the fundamental goal that the state is to serve – the integral development of the individual in society. Essential in a radical sense – a goal that all elements of the state serve. The common good is the sum of the conditions of social life that allow individual members of society and their associations to achieve more or easier perfection. It is the raison d'être of all public authorities. The principle of the common good is primarily a principle defining what the state should be, and not how citizens should behave towards the state. The state is a common good, not because everyone has obligations to it, but because it serves the development of all members of the political community.

Polska jako dobro wspólne obywateli a migracje długoterminowe

Author(s): Barbara Kowalczyk / Language(s): Polish Issue: 9.1/2018

According to the Constitution of 1997 the Republic of Poland is a common good of all Polish nationals. Taking into account the increasing scope of rights and freedoms guaranteed to foreigners and permanent approximation of their legal status to citizens’ position the question arises if there is a possibility to include specific groups of foreigners residing on the territory of Poland into the political community. This article aims at answering the question whether such inclusive character of “common good” is acceptable in the light of the Constitution and statutory law. The analysis of relevant provisions reveals that despite a wide range of freedoms and rights, even political ones, foreigners cannot be included into the community. Foreigners are not a subject of elective rights that lead to the full participation in the community which creates the content of common good. Nonetheless, citizens as “hosts of the state” can and should develop the content of common good considering freedoms and human rights of incomers.

Zarządzanie niezależnością telewizji publicznej

Author(s): Grzegorz Mnich / Language(s): Polish Issue: 11.3/2017

The management of the public television in our country is frequently reduced to hiring the journalists loyal to the government and firing those who are associated with the political opposition. None of the ruling parties since 1989 has given up this opportunity. The reasons of the political dependence of journalists in TVP and the consequences of their limited of autonomy are the issues discussed in this paper. The author takes the opportunity to ask whether the autonomy of the public media is possible at all. Mechanisms of the political dependence restrict the freedom of speech, which directly strikes the civil society. At the same time we deal with the instrumental treatment of journalists, used to accomplish the political vision of their superiors. Morality of the journalists who agree to create a unilateral, dishonest image of reality is also a subject of discussion. The goal of the article is to point out the mechanisms that lead to the politicization of the public television. It is worth to mention in the first place, that the politicians influence the choice of the management and the journalists so that the news is presented according to the needs of the governing party. The author does not agree with the statement, that the public broadcasting must be politicized and biased. In the conclusions, he proposes the solutions, which could be implemented but require the political maturity and foresight of our elites and the firm support of the democratic society.

The threats to which the tourists are exposed have been indicated as well as their role in the decision-making process about the travel to a given place has been specified. Special focus has been put on the terrorism-related danger, showing off its essence and source. In the empirical part, using the results of the research carried out during World Youth Day Krakow 2016, statistically significant correlations between the fear of arriving in the city and demographic-social features and the place of residence of the participants of this great event in the Christian religion have been found (as it could be expected, highly exposed to the terrorist attack on the part of followers of Islam). The analysis of the information obtained showed, among others, that the nationality of the participant had the largest impact on the fear of the arrival for WYD in Krakow. The impact of gender and whether the pilgrim was domestic or foreign was somewhat less strong. The education, the age and the professional status played the smallest role.

Thinking about increasing the physical activity of Poles often ends in building sport facilities. Meanwhile, it is a fundamental but only the initial stage of stimulating this process. The „My pitch Orlik 2012” program is a unique initiative that gave us all a great opportunity, provided that we know how to use it well. Continuous active support of this unprecedented project, identifying with it and supporting the work of animators, who are the key success factors in the functioning of the Orliks, are of utmost importance. Understanding their problems and needs, as well as support from governing institutions are crucial to succeed. The presented work deals with the specifics of the animators’ work and the whole context in which they operate. The problems which they face and the sources of support for their work are analyzed – with particular emphasis on the location of Orliks (rural and urban communities).

Activist Localities in the Queer South

Author(s): Helis Sikk / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2018

Cultural anthropologist Arjun Appadurai’s theories about place link together various surrounding contexts: technology, media, economics, and ideology. He sees locality as a“complex phenomenological quality” (1996, p. 178) that we should not look at as context, but instead focus on how contexts define the boundaries of localities. Appadurai’s theories help to link global and local by taking into account the various surrounding contexts: technology,media, economics, and ideology. This paper uses Appadurai’s theory as a basis to explore how localities emerge in grassroots queer activist practices that combine offline and online tactics in their organizing. I use participant observation, in-depth interviews, and content analysis to gain an understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of networked locality created by LGBTQ activists physically located in Southern United States.

Programy prewencyjne elementem bezpieczeństwa na szczeblu lokalnym

Author(s): Marian Kopczewski,Weronika Bednarczyk,Sebastian Niedźwiecki / Language(s): Polish Issue: 5.3/2017

The primary task of security policy at all levels of government is to ensure survival, territorial integrity and high standards of social life, including public safety. Creating friendly living conditions at different levels affects not only the sense of non-threat in everyday life, but also the state of the whole state. Therefore, it is desirable that all activities aimed at ensuring safety are two-way. Central government authorities should create legal instruments to generate national level security and support local initiatives, which in turn contribute to the state security area. One way in which individual levels can implement security policies is to develop and implement preventive programs that will co-create safety management systems at state and local level. The municipal government is an authority with knowledge of local problems, needs and social concerns (it has the most detailed and objective data on the state of safety) so that its authorities can be used to implement disaster prevention activities at the information, education and interventional levels. They will therefore affect the regional security management system, inter alia through preventive programs, especially anti-terrorist measures.

Author(s): Magdalena Dalecka-Zaborowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 5.3/2017

The construction of territorial forces is a time-intensive process that results in the creation of a potential for deterrence of a potential aggressor, the sealing of a national security system, and the raising of the level of individual security. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the military and non-military capabilities of the armed forces of the Fifth Armed Forces, reviewing the legal and organizational foundations for their construction and the opinions of experts and researchers on military issues.
