Can the European Monetary Union get out of the labyrinth?

System zarządzania kryzysami Unii Europejskiej – znaczenie dla bezpieczeństwa międzynarodowego ; The European Union's crisis management system – its significance for international security
The rapid evolution of numerous contemporary threats and the development of multilateralism constitute two significant driving forces for the intensified cooperation between the European Union and the United Nations as regards crisis management. Responding to crises (threats), both natural and man-induced, in an efficient manner requires effective crisis management in order to take steps as early as possible when a threat emerges. Given the increasing external expectations in this field addressed at the EU, it has gradually been developing relevant civil as well as military instruments of crisis management and response. The EU has also been developing collaboration with the UN which calls for increased commitment of regional organizations in bearing the costs of maintaining international peace and security. Although this cooperation is mutually beneficial, it is not free from weaknesses and limitations on various levels of operation. ; The rapid evolution of numerous contemporary threats and the development of multilateralism constitute two significant driving forces for the intensified cooperation between the European Union and the United Nations as regards crisis management.

System instytucjonalny Unii Europejskiej w programach polskich partii polityczny ; European Union Institutional System in Programmes of Polish Political Parties
General elections to the European Parliament (EP) should be the best opportunity to devote more space in the public debate in the Member States of the European Union (EU) to matters strictly concerning the functioning and future of the EU. The aim of the study is to check whether Polish political parties have any ideas regarding reforms of the EU institutional system. In those cases where the answer to this question is a positive – presentation and brief analysis. The parties that will be taken into account will be those, that registered electoral lists in all constituencies – alone or in coalition with other parties in the 2019 European elections. The indicated goal will be achieved on the basis of content of political programs current during the election campaign to the European Parliament in 2019. To outline the context of this issue, first synthetically presented (based on the results of Eurobarometer survey conducted in autumn 2018) will be what is declared the trust of Polish society to EU institutions and, for comparison, to national institutions. The brief analysis mentioned above programs and the most important conclusions are included in the summary.

Mniejszości narodowe w systemie politycznym Ukrainy
In: Studia europejskie: Studies in European affairs, Band 24, Heft 1, S. 101-128
The main purpose of the article is to present the evolution of legal regulations regarding national minorities in Ukraine, the structure of these minorities and the dynamics of demographic change. The authors analyzed the geographical distribution as well as the political, cultural and educational activity of the most numerous national minorities. They presented the main reasons for the increase or decrease in the size of the largest national groups. The political and legal foundations of minority activities, the specificity of the organization of their educational institutions, national-cultural associations and ethnic parties were analyzed. Particular attention was paid to the problematic provisions of the new Education Act (2017), which reduced the status of languages of national minorities in education and led to the deterioration of relations with individual countries with which minorities are associated. The authors discussed the most severe problems in bilateral relations arising from Ukraine's policy towards minorities and some ideas on how to solve them. The main methods of improving nationality policy in contemporary Ukraine were also presented.
The Earthquake of the European Election in France. About Front National, French Party System and Politics
The victory of the National Front Party led by Ms. Marine le Pen within the European Parliamentary Election in France by May 2014 raised the question whether or not it signals the end of the French left-right bipolarized party system. This option remains uncertain. The far-right party of the 45-year-old daughter of National Front founder, Jean-Marie Le Pen, gained new voters, deepening the national audience of the extremist party geographically and in the different categories of the population. But the still remaining French "presidentialist" constitutional political regime continues to operate under a strong constraint in favor of bipolarization. Meanwhile, the possible presence of Ms. Le Pen as the two-qualified opponent for the second round of the presidential election is currently determining, and will continue to determine for the next two years, the political strategies of the 2017 future running candidates and parties.

O konflikcie interesów między nadzorem a polityką pieniężną ; On the conflict of interest between supervision and monetary policy
Dyskusja wokół kwestii konfliktu interesów między funkcją realizacji polityki pieniężnej a funkcją nadzoru bankowego wpływa na rozwiązanie instytucjonalne polegające na włączeniu lub niewłączaniu funkcji nadzoru do zadań banku centralnego. Z tego też względu przez wiele lat Europejski Bank Centralny (EBC) nie sprawował nadzoru w stosunku do instytucji kredytowych. Przy konstrukcji Europejskiego Systemu Banków Centralnych zwyciężyła koncepcja niemiecka całkowitego wydzielenia nadzoru z EBC. Gdyby nie kryzys finansowy lat 2008-2013, prawdopodobnie do dziś EBC nie sprawowałby nadzoru nad instytucjami kredytowymi. Pomimo utworzenia w 2011 r. Europejskiego Urzędu Nadzoru Finansowego dwa lata później zdecydowano się powierzyć EBC nadzór bankowy nad najważniejszymi instytucjami finansowymi na obszarze Unii Europejskiej. Trudno dziś rozstrzygnąć, czy połączenie polityki pieniężnej i nadzoru pod jednym dachem EBC było posunięciem korzystnym, dopiero za kilka lat będzie można ocenić, czy zwiększyła się efektywność nadzoru. ; The discussion involving the conflict of interest between the implementation of monetary policy and banking supervision influences the institutional solution to the question of the inclusion or non-inclusion of the supervisory function among the tasks of the central bank. Consequently, credit institutions were, for many years, left unsupervised. This situation would have probably continued until today, had it not been for the financial crisis of 2008-2013. Despite the appointment of the European Financial Supervision Office in 2011, supervision of the main EU financial institutions has recently been vested in the European Central Bank. Whether this decision was the right move will only be known in (the) years to come, when the effectiveness of this supervisionhas been assessed.

Suitable Political System for Starting Point of European Integration and its Contemporary Impulse: Historical Perspective
What it meant by European Integration? We mean the historical process whereby European nation-states have been willing to transfer, or more usually pool, their sovereign powers in a collective enterprise. The European Union, which today contains twenty-eight member states, which has a complex institutional structure that includes a supranational central administration (the European Commission), an elected Parliament, a Court of Justice and a Central Bank, is the outcome of this processes. Many American and European scientists of the European Union have chided "intergovemmentalist" accounts for emphasizing the duration of member state authority over the process of European integration. This article attempts to prove these criticisms in a "historical institutionalist" account that mentions the importance of research on European integration as a political process which spreads over time. Such an aspect distinguishes the limitations of member-state control over permanent institutional improvements, due to a fixation with short-term interests, the existence of unexpected consequences, and actions that "lock in" past decisions and make affirmation of member-state control difficult. Short exploration of the development of social policy in the EC advocates the limitations of conducting the EC as an international regime promoting collective activity among sovereign states. It is important to view integration as a "path-dependent" process that has composed a dispersed, but still obvious "multitiered" European polity.

Zagadnienie istnienia europejskiego systemu partyjnego - rozważania terminologiczne ; The issue of the European party system - terminological considerations
Celem niniejszego artykułu jest przedstawienie partii funkcjonujących na płaszczyźnie euro - pejskiej, ukazanie ich specyfiki oraz kształtującego się między nimi układ stosunków. Artykuł składa się z trzech części. W pierwszej scharakteryzowano triadę: partie krajowe - grupy polityczne w PE - partie polityczne na poziomie europejskim (europartie). W drugiej przybliżono pojęcie systemu partyjnego, w trzeciej odniesiono to pojęcie oraz składające się na niego elementy (partie, interakcje) do partii na szczeblu europejskim, przeprowadzając dyskusję nad adekwatnością ich stosowania w kontekście europejskim. O ile można mówić o istnieniu europejskich partii politycznych, zdecydowanie trudniej udowodnić istnienie europejskiego systemu partyjnego. Interakcje pomiędzy europartiami zachodzą jedynie na arenie parlamentarnej, przy czym nie mają one charakteru rywalizacji pomiędzy rządzącą większością i opozycją. Polegają raczej na budowaniu konsensusu potrzebnego parlamentowi do podjęcia decyzji większością głosów. Nie ma europejskiego systemu partyjnego na arenie wyborczej, gdzie mamy do czynienia z rywalizacją partii krajowych, jak również na arenie rządowej, jako że europejski "rząd" (Komisja, Rada Europejska) nie jest powoływany na zasadzie partyjnej. ; The purpose of this paper is to present the parties operating at the European level in order to show their specificity and the system o f relations emerging among them. The paper consists of three parts. In the first one, a triad: the national parties - political groups in the EP - political parties at the European level (Europarties) are characterized. In the second one, the concept of the party system is presented. In the third one, this concept and its components (parties, interactions) are applied to discuss the adequacy of their use in the European context. While it is possible to speak o f European political parties, it is much more difficult to prove the existence of a European party system. Interactions among the Europarties take place only in the parliamentary arena, but there is no competition between the governing majority and the opposition. These relations lie more in building the consensus necessary for the EP to decide by majority vote. There is no European party system in the electoral arena, where national parties compete, nor in the governmental arena, as the European 'government' (Commission, European Council) is not appointed on the basis o f the political parties.

The New Third Party in Two-Party System? Circumstances and Implications of UKIP Success in 2014 European Parliament Elections
For a growing group of voters the UKIP party ceases to be a second choice, and it becomes a main party. But, contrary to popular belief, its electoral success is only partly due to its Eurosceptic program. Its growing support is rather the result of disappointment in policies of the main parties and a sense of alienation of a growing social group, failing to find its way in a liberal, multicultural society. Note, however, that the UK electoral system rewards parties that have geographically concentrated support, yet in case of UKIP it is distributed fairly evenly. For this reason, even a significant popular support will translate only in a small degree into the seats in the House of Commons. UKIP electoral successes has forced the major political parties to modify their policies, which manifested mainly in radicalization of their programs in the area of immigration and asylum policy, as well as their attitude towards the UK's membership in the European Union.

Europejska infrastruktura instytucjonalna ; European institutional infrastructure
The general aim of the paper is a systenatization of concepts and also an analysis of some aspects of the process of forming institutional infrastructure in Europe after the collapse of centrally managed economic system. Characteristic feature of such transformations is that they concern mainly the sphere of non-material components of economic subjects' surrouding. This involves difficulties in monitoring them and in interpreting them in a strict way. Europe needs a transformation of all the elements of its institutional infrastructure. In teh case of such institutions-organizations as European Union or NATO - an evolution is expected towards their more universal character. Within the institutions of codified principles the developing of European political infrastructure (i.e. agreements serving increased co-operation of all States of the region) is more particularly desirable. The element that unites transformations of institutions-organizations and institutions-formali zed principles is the fact that both of them are undertaken fully consciously. Also changes within institutions-non-formalized principles are of much importance for the process of European integration. The changes are the result of very complex and time consuming economic and social developments. The need for such changes involves more particularly the societies of former Eastern Europe which, under specific conditions of centrally planned economy, have developped institutional system quite difficult to adept it to the market economy. ; Digitalizacja i deponowanie archiwalnych zeszytów RPEiS sfinansowane przez MNiSW w ramach realizacji umowy nr 541/P-DUN/2016
