This article is going to point main advantages and disadvantages of e-voting. That form of voting could be a turning point in modern democracy. It can avoid many concerns and problems – there are some certain examples attached. It's our choice to try e-votig but it' is essencial to know all pros and cons
The late 1960s and early 1970s development of liberation discourses (postcolonial, racial, ethnic, gender, environmental, etc.) resulted in them turning not only and not so much into an intellectual strategy, but instead, in their entering culture as social practices, and becoming the main patterns of behavior and models of thinking. 1 In this context, the feminist discourse, 2 which initially developed as a political and legal narrative of the struggle for women's rights, unfortunately became a world view and even an ideological discourse of opposition and competition between the sexes as it spread. In view of the above, the current cultural situation pursued by feminist activists in terms of gender can be described as a struggle for alpha leadership between an antagonist and a protagonist in the course of a liberation discourse (Gaag, 2014; Carrigan, Connell & Lee, 1985, pp. 551–604; Wood, 2011). Such a struggle is also often described in the terminology of Darwinian natural selection and, therefore, it is realized in social practices as an all-out war between the "oppressors" and the "oppressed," justified by the criteria of biological (non)utility in nature or society.
This article aims at analysing the specificity one of the institutions of executive branch in the Swiss Confederation as well as it aims at providing details concerning the direction of changes in composition of the Federal Council and the directions of evolution of principles applying to appointment of the Swiss government's members. This work was motivated by the fact that Switzerland is an example of a country which adopted unusual solutions concerning selection and functioning of the executive branch. As a consequence, it caused an opinion that the Swiss Confederation is one of the most stable democracies in the world. However, recent years prove that political practice translates significantly into evolution of the Swiss solutions because division of powers in the parliament contributed to a "collapse" of the so-called "magic formula" (German: Zauberformel), which guaranteed the great (and stable) government coalition and contributed to emergence of initiatives that aim at changing principles of selecting executive branch in the country
Switzerland is an example of a state that has adopted specific solutions as regards the election and execution of executive power, which has generated the common conviction that the Swiss Confederation is among the most solid democracies in the world. Recent years have shown, however, that political practice has brought about a significant evolution of Swiss solutions as the distribution of power in the parliament has resulted in the abolition of the 'magical formula' that guaranteed the great (and stable) government coalition, and the emergence of initiatives aiming at changing the principles along which executive power is elected in Switzerland. The purpose of considerations presented in this paper is to analyze the specific character of how the executive institutions function in the Swiss Confederation, answer the question of what directions the changes to the composition of the Federal Council are taking, as well as address the directions of evolutionary changes to the principles of electing the members of the Swiss government.

The paper presents the concept of a protective structure in the form of a prefabricated reinforced concrete protective dome intended for protection of a single critical infrastructure facility [1]. Unlike non-movable cast-in-place reinforced concrete structures, the protective structure can be assembled and disassembled repeatedly with the use of dedicated joining sockets. To provide the concept with a high mobility, the dimensions of single modules of the prefabricated reinforced concrete protective dome meet the transport limits dictated by the horizontal and vertical clearance of roads. A numerical computational analysis facilitated a determination of the distribution of internal forces in the protective stricture and dimensioning of the required reinforcement system [3]. The computations included standardized cases of steady and dynamic loads, and combinations thereof, complete with parameters of dynamic loads from an explosion impulse. Keywords: building engineering, protective structure, prefabricated dome
