'Great Britain, Great Expectations': The Representation of Polish Migration to Great Britain in Londyńczycy/Londoners ; "Wielka Brytania, wielkie nadzieje": reprezentacja polskiej migracji w Londyńczykach
Following the 2004 expansion of the European Union (EU), Polish migrant workers began arriving in the United Kingdom on an unprecedented scale. Londoners (Londyńczycy, 2008-9) was a response to this. Exploring the lives of Polish migrants in London, the series became an instant success on Polish television, regularly attracting around four million viewers. This article explores how Londoners represents Britishness and Polishness to its target Polish audience. It will argue that the series negotiates questions of Polish national identity, which over the past 20 years has been undergoing fundamental redefinition as a result of the ending of the Cold War and Poland's accession to the EU. ; 'Great Britain, Great Expectations': The Representation of Polish Migration to Great Britain in Londyńczycy/LondonersFollowing the 2004 expansion of the European Union (EU), Polish migrant workers began arriving in the United Kingdom on an unprecedented scale.

110 lat polityki publicznej w Wielkiej Brytanii
In: Studia z polityki publicznej: Public policy studies, Band 1, Heft 1, S. 113-141
ISSN: 2719-7131
The subject of this study is the evolution of British public policy between 1900 and 2010 with to the special focus on budgetary, monetary and social policy, as well as policy towards the public sector. This period was characterized by a steady, yet non-linear rise in economic and social activity of the state. Sudden increases were caused by one of three categories of events: wars, economic crises and changes at the highest levels of government. As a result, the history of British public policy in between 1900 and 2010 is divided into the following stages: 1) 1900-1931 - decline of the liberal era; 2) 1931-1951 - steady increase in the state's economic activity; 3) 1951-1979 - systemic stabilization at a high level of state involvement in economic and social issues; 4) 1997-2007 - attempt to return to economic liberalism; 5) 2007-2010 - a period of volatility and the search for new public policy principles.
Great Britain as a borderland. Regional identities and political reality ; Wielka Brytania jako region pogranicza. Tożsamości i artykulacja interesów politycznych
The aim of this article is to look at the political reality of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the perspective of borderlands understood as a result of political action, an area in which they are expressed, but at the same time are the driving force of these processes. Identities of borderlands play a significant role in shaping political reality in the UK. Their diversity, the strength of their interests' articulation, participation in political rivalry, although it was not the only factor, have determined the current political system of the state to a large extent. At the same time the impact of political transformations on changes in the identities is noticeable. More and more of them, in addition to their own national/regional identification, also indicates the relationship with the United Kingdom as a whole, which suggests that devolution rather strengthens the state, than leads towards disintegration, although such a risk exists in reality. ; Celem artykułu jest spojrzenie na rzeczywistość polityczną Zjednoczonego Królestwa Wielkiej Brytanii i Irlandii Północnej z perspektywy pogranicza. Jest ono rezultatem działań politycznych, obszarem, w którym znajdują one swój wyraz, ale i na zasadzie sprzężenia zwrotnego są siłą napędową tych procesów. Tożsamości pogranicza w Wielkiej Brytanii odgrywają znaczącą rolę w kształtowaniu rzeczywistości politycznej. Ich zróżnicowanie, siła artykulacji interesów, uczestnictwo w rywalizacji politycznej, w dużej mierze, choć nie był to czynnik jedyny, przesądziły o obecnym kształcie ustrojowym państwa. Jednocześnie zauważalny jest, subtelny na razie, wpływ przeobrażeń ustrojowych na zmiany tożsamości. Coraz więcej mieszkańców, obok identyfikacji narodowej /regionalnej, wskazuje także na związki z Wielką Brytanią jako całością, co świadczy o tym, że Zjednoczone Królestwo, dzieląc się władzą raczej umacnia państwo niż prowadzi je ku rozpadowi, choć takie ryzyko przy dewolucji w brytyjskich warunkach istnieje.

Mosul przede wszystkim… Stosunki brytyjsko-tureckie w latach 1923–1929
Lausanne Peace Treaty did not solve contradictions between Great Britain and Turkey. Political relations between those two countries remained strained. The Kemalists could not forget that London had been the main supporter of Greece during the Liberation War (Kurtuluş Savaşı). On the other hand, the British thought Turkey to be a seasonal state and were alarmed when Kemalists had established a close link with the Soviet Russia. However, the most serious problem was a dispute over the possession of the vilayet of Mosul. The territory of Mosul was held by Turkey until the First World War. In 1918 it was occupied by Britain. In 1920 it was assigned to Iraq, which had become a British mandate. However Kemalists refused to relinquish their claims to the territory of Mosul, which was specified in the National Pact (Misakı Millı) as Turkish one. For that reason the question of Mosul remained in a state of deadlock, even after the Lausanne Treaty had been signed. Bilateral negotiations between Great Britain and Turkey did not solve the problem, and the matter was referred to the League of Nations. In December 1925 the Council of the League of Nations decided that the vilayet of Mosul was an integraf part of Iraq. Finally the dispute over that territory ended in June 1926, when the border treaty between Iraq and Turkey was signed. However the case of Mosul cast a shadow over relations between Angora and London at least until 1929.
