The article analyses the types of atypical forms of employment and their spread in Lithuania in the context of the European Union. A special emphasis in the article is laid on security of atypical workers in the labour market. The literature analysis carried out in the article revealed that despite certain advantages of atypical employment atypical employees are less secure in the labour market than employees in standard employment. This insecurity is determined by more frequent stresses due to work-related situations, poor visibility regarding the future level of income and career perspectives. The analysis of statistical data revealed that self-employment and part-time work are the most prevalent atypical forms of employment in Lithuania. A special mention should also be given to two atypical forms of employment – selfemployment and temporary agency work – which have grown most over the past few years in Lithuania.

Research object. Hybrid War Threats Impact on National Security The aim of this paper is to evaluate NATO, EU and Lithuania's preparedness to respond to hybrid threats in correlation with the lessons identified and learned in the course of hybrid conflict in Ukraine. In order to achieve this aim, the following tasks were determined: 1. overview genesis and key features of hybrid war in the light of post-Cold War geopolitical processes; 2. identify and evaluate key aspects of hybrid conflict in Ukraine; 3. evaluate impact of hybrid conflict in Ukraine on security safeguarding processes within EU, NATO and Lithuania; 4. analyze features of shaping response to hybrid threats from the EU, NATO and Lithuania's national perspective; 5. compile lessons learned and based on it provide proposals. Research methods. Analytical and comparative approaches are used in order to conduct comprehensive analysis of hybrid threats impact on national security. Analytical method is applied for the analysis of research literature, publications, documents and legal acts. Comparative method is applied for identifying differences and similarities related to developing of NATO, EU and Lithuania's response to hybrid threat. Post Cold War geopolitical situation created illusion of non-conflict world based on universal liberal values. This illusion influenced Western nations, including Lithuania, decisions to pay insufficient attention to defence and security. Aggressive Russia's posture and hybrid war in Ukraine in particular forced to radically review such approach. It is concluded that hybrid threats influenced NATO and EU accepting active role shaping response to those threats by applying comprehensive approach principles. Also, defence cooperation between those organizations has increased. Evaluating Lithuania's selected strategy of responding to hybrid threats, it was identified that significant attention is paid to interinstitutional cooperation and developing comprehensive response. Within relatively short timeframe, important decisions related to security and defence, such as re-introduction of compulsory military service and establishment of rapid reaction forces had been made.

The present article discusses the issue of national identity under the circumstances of globalization. We view globalization as a double-sided phenomenon: as a positive phenomenon that opens wide perspectives for political, economic and cultural communication co-operation, and - as a negative phenomenon - that may cause threat to the identity of separate persons, communities and cultures by weakening or even destroying that identity. The article also considers the possibility of viewing national identity from different perspectives. In terms of personal self-identification, national identity is most commonly treated as person's existence and survival within the context of the same ethnical group, this existence being accompanied by the feeling of belonging to the nation and Motherland. In this case, it is necessary to establish the measure of value for one's own nation against the background of other surrounding nations, as well as to dearly visualize the specific expectations for the future of the nation and one's own further existence within the national context. In our study of senior school learners' national identity, the starting point was the respondents' attitudes towards one's own national state and national security that underlies the freedom and independence of the nation as well as the recognition of the nation by others. The obtained results manifest a tendency in senior school learners' attitudes towards lower evaluations of one's own nation (in comparison with. [to full text]
