Biało-ruskij mir. Reaktywacja reintegracyjna w relacjach rosyjsko-białoruskich White-Russian world
In: Rocznik Instytutu Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej, Band 19, Heft 2, S. 67-80

The relations between the Russian Federation and Belarus in the 21st century are characterized by dynamics and volatility. The integration processes of both countries, initiated in the 1990s, are an element of the strategy of domination in the post-Soviet area, which is consistently implemented by Russia. The authors conclude that this strategy in the case of Belarus is a kind of mixture of soft power and hard power, and the choice of instruments depends on the stability of the authoritarian regime, which is embodied by Alyaksandr Lukashenka. The rigged presidential elections triggered a wave of protests, leading to the gradual loss of social legitimacy by the Belarusian president. Russia has a dilemma: whether to continue to support Lukashenka, who is losing support, or to look for a "new personal alternative", a politician that would guarantee the implementation of a "pro-Russian vector" in Belarus's domestic and foreign policy. Regardless of how the situation develops, Russia's strategic goal remains to keep Belarus in its sphere of influence using the already existing mechanisms of cooperation between the two countries.
Images of career women in the Arab world ; Wizerunki kobiet sukcesu w świecie arabskim
The purpose of the paper is to present the images of career women in the Arab world, and in particular to demonstrate different paths taken by them to success. An important topic is also how such women are perceived by the public. In the study, the term success is objectified and results primarily from the position occupied by women in the social hierarchy2 , especially in the politics and business (including show business). So far the problem of career women in the Arab world (and in abroader sense: in the Muslim world) has not been an object of studies or analyses, the more difficult it is, therefore, to discuss the images shaped. Thus, this is apreliminary study with aresearch base constituted by images of twelve women. (fragment of the text) ; Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie wizerunków kobiet sukcesu w świecie arabskim oraz ukazanie różnorodności sposobów osiągania przez nie sukcesu. Istotnym wątkiem jest także odbiór społeczny takich kobiet. W opracowaniu pojęcie sukcesu ma wymiar zobiektywizowany i wynika przede wszystkim z miejsca zajmowanego przez kobiety w hierarchii społecznej, zwłaszcza w polityce oraz w biznesie (w tym show-biznesie). Problematyka kobiet sukcesu w świecie arabskim (i szerzej: muzułmańskim) nie była jak dotychczas przedmiotem badań i analiz, tym trudniej jest więc mówić o kształtowanych wizerunkach. Niniejsze opracowanie ma zatem charakter wstępnego studium, a podstawę badawczą stanowią sylwetki dwunastu kobiet. (fragment tekstu)

Petropolityka i bezpieczeństwo energetyczne we współczesnym świecie ; Petropolitics and Energy Security in Contemporary World
W niniejszym artykule dokonano analizy bezpieczeństwa energetycznego zarówno w kontekście regionalnym, jak i globalnym. Punktem wyjœcia w analizie polityki prowadzonej przez Rosję, Wenezuelę i państwa Zatoki Perskiej stało się "pierwsze prawo petropolityki", zgodnie z którym im wyższa jest średnia cena ropy naftowej i gazu na rynkach swiatowych, tym niższe jest przeświadczenie rządów o konieczności przeprowadzenia wewnętrznych reform politycznych i gospodarczych, a ich polityka zagraniczna i bezpieczeństwa jest bardziej konfrontacyjna. W opinii autora artykułu zarówno kontrowersje wokół projektu Nord Stream, jak również gwałtowne protesty na Bliskim Wschodzie określane mianem "Arabskiej Wiosny", przemawiają za poparciem hipotezy o potrzebie dążenia do przestrzegania reguł demokracji i solidarności pomiêdzy pañstwami jako mechanizmu zapewniaj¹cego bezpieczeñstwo energetyczne w skali globalnej. ; This article analyzes energy security in the context of the regional and global levels. The starting point in analyzing policies pursued by Russia, Venezuela and the Gulf States has become "the first law of petropolitics" according to which, the higher the average price of oil and gas on world markets, the lower is the conviction of the governments of the necessity of internal political and economic reforms, and their foreign and security policy is more confrontational. In the author's opinion, both the controversy surrounding the Nord Stream project as well as the violent protests in the Middle East, support the hypothesis about the need to promote compliance with the rules of democracy and solidarity between countries as a mechanism for ensuring energy security on a global scale.

FinTech i FinReg - nowe wyzwania dla systemu regulacji rynku finansowego w Polsce i na świecie
In: Studia z polityki publicznej: Public policy studies, Band 8, Heft 1, S. 141-153
ISSN: 2719-7131
Effective regulation of the financial market is clearly crucial to innovation and the future success of the financial services industry and, in particular, FinTech companies. Prior to the global financial crisis, financial innovation was viewed very positively, resulting in many markets in the deregulatory approach to financial regulation. During the crisis, the regulatory pendulum swang to the other extreme. Dramatic technological change has spurred the development of financial technology companies (FinTech). FinTech and other financial services providers profoundly challenge the current regulatory paradigm. Financial regulators are increasingly seeking to balance the traditional regulatory approaches to financial stability and consumer protection with promoting growth and innovation. The resulting regulatory innovations include technology, innovation hubs, regulatory sandboxes, and special charters. This paper analyses new regulatory approaches, structured experimentalism (such as sandboxes), and the development of specific new regulatory frameworks.

Between socialist homeland and totalitarian dictatorship. The image of the post-World War II period in Ukrainian historical discourse
In: Yearbook of the Institute of East-Central Europe: Rocznik Instytutu Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej, Band 20, Heft 1, S. 183-201
This paper is devoted to the analysis of selected aspects how Ukrainian schools present the historical narrative that covers the post-World War II history of this country – particularly the period of late socialism. My goal was to establish how post-Maidan textbooks presented the times when Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union in its superpower phase. I was especially interested in the current assessment of such phenomena as: post-Stalinist modernization, the movements opposing communist ideology, and the late socialist concept of the Soviet people. The source material was five new textbooks for historical education at high-school level approved for use by the Ukrainian authorities in 2019. The basic research method was discourse analysis: the content of the textbooks were critically evaluated in light of the ongoing political and social situation. Among the theoretical assumptions that were applied in the paper was that the historical narrative has a key importance as a function of the nation-state and as such serves its interests. To conclude the analysis below, it should be emphasized that historical narrative of Ukrainian Schools presents the past of the country in the second half of the 20th century as a general process of gaining independence from the Soviet centre. In the context of Russia's aggression against Ukraine, it should be assumed that the emancipatory nature of the interpretation of Ukraine's national history is now irreversible.
