<i>The research problem described in the paper originates from the lack of adequate force protection
of tactical level logistic units supporting forces in battle. The author tries to prove the necessity
of the application of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) in order to ensure security of tactical
level supply chains. The new technologies may be an innovative and perspective solution for the
problem of the absence of force protection structures in logistic units. The author considers the
use of UAVs for observation, reconnaissance and active force protection of logistic points and
logistic units supporting tactical level forces. The problem is to choose the correct UAV type and
to organise the unmanned autonomous systems (UAS) defined as electromechanical systems
with no human operator on board, capable of performing operations in airspace.</i>

The article discusses the history of the formation and activity of the Polish
orthodox chaplaincy in the three western occupation zones of Germany after
World War II. At that time, there were hundreds of thousands of refugees from Poland in the area. In terms of religion they constituted a mosaic. The followers
of the Orthodox Church were the second largest group after the Catholics. The
authorities of the Republic of Poland in exile felt obliged to provide these people
with religious care. Led by Archbishop Sawa (Sowietov), priests carried out the
ministry in Germany. The author has analyzed the political and social conditions
in which the structures of the Polish Orthodox Church in refugee camps in West
Germany were organized and functioned. The author has also presented the
influence of the ethnic factor on the activity of the Polish Orthodox clergy.

In 2013, Goodreads, a social media Website for book lovers, announced policy changes that included the deletion of reviews that discuss an author's behavior. These changes occurred after a series of author/reviewer incidents in 2012 and 2013. This article presents a case study of one of those incidents in 2012, when a Goodreads reviewer wrote a negative review of a novel, the author and agent responded on Twitter, and a public discussion ensued around behavior standards for both literary professionals and nonprofessionals. The above incident, and how it does or does not foreshadow the later changes in Goodreads policy, offers a lens through which to examine evolving reading and writing practices and literary censorship, as well as how nonprofessional book reviewers and readers conceive of their and literary professionals' roles in a complex social media literary landscape.

The author outlines the potential research field demarcated by the phenomenon of the mass presence of students in the public space. At the same time, he views the phenomenon of studentification on a broader scale than solely the Polish (or Eastern European) one, treating the local situation as a case study. On the basis of the available literature he presents successive elements in the contemporary process of change: (a) the evolution of the status of knowledge; (b) change in the idea of the urban environment, as shown by the growth of students' importance in the urban space; and(c) making the labour market selectively flexible on account of the significant group of working students. The author formulates hypotheses for each of these areas, and then makes general recommendations for researchers into the phenomenon of studentification.

The article examines the knowledge as an «invisible asset» of a company produced in the course of entrepreneurial activity and the activity of the company's employees. It is assumed that the entrepreneurial knowledge generated at the company can be transmitted, generally only from one person to another, because this knowledge is difficult to not only formulate but also articulate. The article presents knowledge classification on the basis of its formalization and accessibility for business entities. The author offers the hypothesis that the type of entrepreneurial knowledge owned by the organization is a major factor in the establishment, implementation and application of innovative technologies in the economy. Calculated by the author econometric model of multiple linear regression describing the dependence of advanced manufacturing technologies developed in Russia on various factors indirectly confirms the proposed hypothesis.

The Czech Constitutional Court decision in the Czecho-Slovak pension saga, declaring a judgment of the Court of Justice ultra vires, represents one important step in the debate on the sustainability of the so-called constitutional pluralism in the relation of EU law and domestic legal systems. Although the Czech decision could be ridiculed as simple-minded and failing to leave any lasting footprint in the wider EU legal debate, the author of this article argues otherwise. Facing the specifics of the case, on the one hand, the author argues that the notion of constitutional pluralism remains largely an academic construct, which could be the subject of interesting scholarly debates, while for practitioners, on the other hand, it is flawed and has the potential to lead to dangerous outcomes for people in real life cases.

The author presents and analyses the notions of a decision according to ReNEUAL Model rules on EU administrative procedure and of an administrative act according to the Proposal for Regulation for an open, efficient and independent European Union administration. The discussion approaches the subsidiary character of the proposed rules and exclusions of their applicability in given cases, the designation and individual character of decisions and administrative acts, as well as their form and content. Additionally, the author considers the possibility of qualifying certain regulations as decisions or administrative acts. According to the conclusion, the scope of application of analysed proposals may turn out to be relatively restricted because of the exclusion of implementing acts in the case of the Regulation proposal and the potentially narrow interpretation of the notion of a decision in the case of the Model Rules.

The main aim of the article is to survey and conceptualize the place of employment security in labour law, and to explore a number of important legal questions relating to this concept. After scrutinizing the notion of employment security, the author endorses the view that job security that exists on the basis of dismissal law is more complex than reform proposals usually suggest. In addition, the author argues that dismissal protection serves other goals and interests than job security alone and that these aspects of dismissal protection legislation cannot be replaced by (an increased) employment security (coupled with income security). A further development of true employment security can, however, certainly complement job security and benefit workers, since they have never had absolute job security and this job security seems to be eroding.
