Authors: Djinlev Vanja , Dallo Irina , Müller Stefan Markus , Surchat Mélanie , von Rothkirch Juanita , Wenger Ariane , Späth Leonhard
Published: May 2023

Addressing socio-environmental challenges requires a multifaceted approach and a comprehensive understanding, which is precisely what transdisciplinary research can provide. The transdisciplinary approach, however, brings new challenges to early career researchers, who have to acquire
the necessary methods and skills while conducting their ongoing research. Along with increasing access to resources and training, guidance from supervisors and informal exchange with other transdisciplinary early career researchers play key roles in effectively supporting them.
Assessing societal effects: Lessons from evaluation approaches in transdisciplinary research fields
Authors: Kny Josefa , Claus Rachel , Harris Janet , Schäfer Martina
Published: May 2023

Achieving societal effects is crucial for transdisciplinary research. In this article, we present key characteristics of impact evaluation of transdisciplinary research. We compare different approaches in sustainability, public health, and development research to advance joint learning
and define common challenges.To address complex societal problems, transdisciplinary approaches are increasingly being employed in research to achieve both scientific and societal effects. Comparing experiences of different impact evaluation approaches enables mutual learning across research
fields. We provide an overview of the key characteristics of different approaches to assess the impact of transdisciplinary research across the fields of public health, development, and sustainability; uncover commonalities and challenges in applying these approaches; and suggest how they
can be overcome by drawing on examples from specific approaches and fields. We find commonalities in terms of conceptual framing as well as data collection and analysis from which we derive the following key challenges:1. evidencing causal claims, 2. including multiple perspectives on
effects, and 3. sustaining continuous monitoring and evaluation. We conclude that impact evaluation of transdisciplinary research must capture the interplay and effects of multiple actors, processes, and impact pathways to promote learning and empirical rigour and suggest how funders can support
this endeavour.
How to build Theories of Change for transdisciplinary research: Guidance and considerations
Authors: Claus Rachel , Davel Rachel , Heykoop Cheryl , Pinto Daniela , Belcher Brian M.
Published: May 2023

A Theory of Change (ToC) is a set of testable hypotheses that model how an intervention will contribute to a change process. ToC development and use can help in the design of transdisciplinary research to build trust and accountability in the research process. We present an online process
for ToC facilitation and offer guidance to collaboratively build a ToC for transdisciplinary research.Transdisciplinary research (TDR) aims to solve problems in complex systems by drawing from a range of methods and expertise to contribute to change processes. Theories of Change (ToCs)
are well-suited to support TDR design and implementation, but they rarely achieve their full potential. In practice, ToCs are often compromised by insufficient engagement with the context, weak theoretical bases, poor articulation, and a lack of iteration. This paper presents a process for
ToC design based on the authors’ experience facilitating ToC development for research planning and evaluation. We illustrate the process using an in-progress TDR example on patient-oriented cancer care research. The approach begins by framing the social and research problems and then
identifies activities and outputs, key actors, outcomes, and underlying causal assumptions. Skilled facilitation and strong conceptual familiarity are key to effectively mobilize ToC concepts into a cohesive and testable model to refine a strategy with TDR stakeholders. Key considerations
and resources are offered to enhance ToC development planning and facilitation.

Atomwende? Ja, bitte! Warum die Abkehr von der Atomenergie und eine gute Entsorgungspolitik die Energiewende in Deutschland befördern werden
Authors: Präger Fabian , Brunnengräber Achim , von Hirschhausen Christian
Published: May 2023

Die Atomenergie bleibt gesellschaftlich umkämpft. Zum einen wird sie wieder als Zukunftstechnologie gehandelt, mit der vermeintlich klimafreundlich und ressourcenschonend Strom erzeugt werden kann. Zum anderen ist die Endlagerung von Atomabfällen noch nicht geregelt. Das Konzept der ,,atompolitischen Wende“ bringt ‐ analog zur Energiewende ‐ dieses Ringen auf den Punkt. Die Beendigung der kommerziellen Nutzung der Atomenergie und eine gute Entsorgungspolitik sind Gelingensbedingungen für die Energiewende und die sozial-ökologische Transformation in Deutschland.Nuclear energy remains controversial in society. On the one hand, it is once again being traded as a technology of the future for supposedly climate-friendly and resource conserving power generation. On the other hand, the final storage of nuclear waste has not yet been clarified. The concept of the “nuclear turnaround” ‐ analogous to theEnergiewende(“energy turnaround”) ‐ sums up this struggle. The phase out of the commercial use of nuclear energy and a good waste management policy are necessary conditions for theEnergiewendeand the socio-ecological transformation in Germany.
Managing a special report: Reflections on the genesis of the Austrian assessment on health, demography and climate change
Authors: Koland Olivia , Haas Willi
Published: May 2023

National assessment reports provide a broadly accepted scientific base, for instance for climate policy-making. In this Design Report, we reflect on the 18-month process of managing the Austrian Special Report Health, Demography and Climate Change involving more than 60
authors. We discuss the efficacy of management tools and the extent to which the assessment resonated in the policy arena.The Austrian Panel on Climate Change (APCC) was established in 2016 for the purpose of issuing comprehensive assessment reports and special reports applying standards
and procedures like the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). All of these assessment reports essentially aim at providing an authoritative synthesis of policy-relevant knowledge, with an emphasis on undisputed statements. In this article, we describe the one-and-a-half-year process
of generating the scientific assessment for the Austrian Special Report Health, Demography and Climate Change (ASR18). 60 authors from different disciplinary backgrounds were involved in the writing process, 30 stakeholders were consulted and raised relevant issues in two workshops,
and two formal scientific review loops yielded more than 2,000 comments. From the perspective of the process coordinators, we reflect on the efficacy of management tools to achieve a credible, relevant and legitimate outcome. Finally, we outline the extent to which we see our Special Report
as an effective contribution to incorporating scientific knowledge into policy debates.

Are there aspects of complexity that are characteristic for research for development projects? Our study shows what are these aspects, how they affect research and what practices seem to be promising for dealing with the increasing levels of complexity.The need to deal with complexity is getting increasingly attention in research for development projects implemented through transboundary research partnerships between organisations from the Global North and the Global South. However, less is known about aspects beyond the systems under study that still affect complexity in the research project. We conducted an experience capitalization of five transboundary research partnerships undertaking research in 14 countries in the Global South. We found that the combination of multiple contexts, the cultural and disciplinary diversity of the transboundary research partnerships, and the set of rules and proceedings from the funding mechanism affect the levels of complexity. We further identified that a transdisciplinary approach and several related practices, like intercultural communication or integrative partnerships, are promising ways of dealing with complexity. Current structures in research for development need to improve in order to fully use the potential of transdisciplinarity for sustainability transformation.

Authors: Robson-Williams Melissa , Harcourt Nichola , Mercier Ocean
Published: May 2023

Aotearoa-New Zealand (A-NZ) faces growing complex environmental challenges and a persistent knowledge-action gap that leaves many social and environmental problems unresolved. The Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment, a major science funder, has called for transdisciplinary modes of research to address increasingly complex problems in an integrated and collaborative fashion. We explore what is needed for transdisciplinary research (TDR) to achieve societal collaboration and impact in A-NZ. We introducemātauranga Māori, A-NZ’s Indigenous and foundational knowledge system, and discuss howmātauranga Māoriand Western science currently interact. We examine some social and environmental consequences whenmātauranga Māoriis marginalised and conclude by discussing how TDR must evolve in order to help tackle complex social and environmental problems in such contexts.
Modeling anaerobic co-digestion of water hyacinth with ruminal slaughterhouse waste for first order, modiﬁed gompertz and logistic kinetic models

Published: May 2023

Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), an invasive aquatic weed with large biomass production is of socio-economic and environmental concern in fresh water bodies such as the Lake Victoria in East Africa. Efforts towards its control and removal can be complemented by biogas production for use as energy source. The co-digestion of water hyacinth (WH) with ruminal slaughterhouse waste (RSW) has the potential to improve biogas production from WH through collation of processes parameters such as the C/N and C/P ratios, potassium concentration and buffering capacity. Knowledge of optimum proportion of the RSW as the minor substrate is of both process and operational importance. Moreover, efficient operation of the process requires an understanding of the relationship between the biogas production and the process parameters. Kinetic models can be useful tools for describing the biogas production process in batch reactors. While the first order kinetics models assume that the rate of biogas production is proportional to the concentration of the remaining substrates, other models such as the modiﬁed Gompertz and the Logistic models incorporate the lag phase, a key feature of the anaerobic digestion process. This study aimed to establish the optimum proportion of RSW in co-digestion with WH under mesophilic conditions, and apply kinetics models to describe the biogas production. The study conducted batch co-digestion of WH with 0, 10, 20 and 30% RSW proportions at mesophilic temperature of 32ºC. Co-digestion of WH with 30% RSW proportion improved biogas yield by 113% from 19.15 to 40.85 CH4 ml/(gVS) at 50 days of co-digestion. It also exhibited the most stable daily biogas production and the largest biogas yield. The biomethanation data were fitted with the first order kinetics, modiﬁed Gompertz and the Logistic models. Biogas production for co-digestion of WH with 30% RSW proportion was best described by the modified Gompertz model with a biogas yield potential, Mo, of 43.2 ml (gVS)-1d-1; maximum biogas production rate, Rm, of 1.50 ml (gVS)-1d-1; and duration of lag, λ, of 3.89 d.

Authors: Barghi Hamid , Zakerinejad Reza
Published: May 2023

Social capital approaches consider the empowerment of societies against disasters, which enable rural communities to recover from the negative effects of hazards. Social capital is a mediator for collective action and can help people build common property resources. Not only can social capital improve access to natural resources, it can also improve access to physical capital. Using the descriptive and analytical survey, this article analyzes the impact of social capital on managing an earthquake in the villages of Khodabandeh in northwest of Iran. The findings indicate that according to the single sample T test as well as the opinions of local authorities and household heads. The components of attitude and cohesion have the strongest direct effect on reducing vulnerability at the level of households and rural authorities, the component of trust has the strongest indirect effect, and the network component has no indirect effect on either level.
Serum GFAP – pediatric reference interval in a cohort of Danish children
Authors: Tybirk Lea , Hviid Claus Vinter Bødker , Knudsen Cindy Soendersoe , Parkner Tina
Published: May 2023

Objectives

Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in blood is an emerging biomarker of brain injury and neurological disease. Its clinical use in children is limited by the lack of a reference interval (RI). Thus, the aim of the present study was to establish an age-dependent continuous RI for serum GFAP in children.

Methods

Excess serum from routine allergy testing of 391 children, 0.4–17.9 years of age, was measured by a single-molecule array (Simoa) assay. A continuous RI was modelled using non-parametric quantile regression and presented both graphically and tabulated as discrete one-year RIs based on point estimates from the model.

Results

Serum GFAP showed a strong age-dependency with declining levels and variability from infants to adolescents. The estimated median level decreased 66 % from four months to five years of age and another 65 % from five years to 17.9 years of age. No gender difference was observed.

Conclusions

The study establishes an age-dependent RI for serum GFAP in children showing high levels and variability in the first years of life.

Published: May 2023

Objectives

This study was conducted to determine whether bacteria, fungi, or archaea are detected in the amniotic fluid of patients who underwent midtrimester amniocentesis for clinical indications.

Methods

Amniotic fluid samples from 692 pregnancies were tested by using a combination of culture and end-point polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques. Intra-amniotic inflammation was defined as an interleukin-6 concentration >2,935 pg/mL.

Results

Microorganisms were detected in 0.3% (2/692) of cases based on cultivation, 1.73% (12/692) based on broad-range end-point PCR, and 2% (14/692) based on the combination of both methods. However, most (13/14) of these cases did not have evidence of intra-amniotic inflammation and delivered at term. Therefore, a positive culture or end-point PCR in most patients appears to have no apparent clinical significance.

Conclusions

Amniotic fluid in the midtrimester of pregnancy generally does not contain bacteria, fungi, or archaea. Interpretation of amniotic fluid culture and molecular microbiologic results is aided by the assessment of the inflammatory state of the amniotic cavity. The presence of microorganisms, as determined by culture or a microbial signal in the absence of intra-amniotic inflammation, appears to be a benign condition.
A Study on the Characteristics of Buildings Builton the Tombs of Goguryeo by chakgo-tile
Authors:   Institute of Korean Cultural Studies Yeungnam University, Ju Honggyu
Published: May 2023

Goguryeo was an ancient country with a wide area from northeast China to the central region of the Korean Peninsula. Goguryeo is known to have traditional tombs with characteristics different from those of neighboring countries, such as tombs, and the tombs of Goguryeo reflect the people's views on life at the time. However, as there are few documentary records on the tombs of Goguryeo, the information that can be obtained through textual materials on the characteristics of the tombs and the view of the life of the Goguryeo people is very limited. Recently, with the progress of excavation research on the ruins of Goguryeo, various archaeological relics have been discovered in Goguryeo tombs. It is regarded as important as a data to judge the time of the construction of the Goguryeo Tombs. However, research on tiles unearthed from Goguryeo tombs has been largely based on historical research, and the main purpose is to reveal the buried tombs, whereas the investigation of the use of tiles excavated from tombs has been stingy.
This study was to clarify archaeologically the possibility of the existence of tomb structures in Goguryeo tombs and the reasons for the excavation of roof tiles from Goguryeo tombs, focusing on the chakgowa (착고와) excavated from the giant Jeokseokchong(적석총) of Goguryeo. The chaggowa(착고와) was used for the construction of buildings with tiled roofs. Among the tombs excavated roof tiles from Jeokseokchong(적석총) in Goguryeo today are Usanha(우산하)3319, Seodaechong(서대총), and Cheonchuchong(천추총). It is difficult to grasp the aspects of the buildings built on the tombs of Goguryeo at the time only from the literatures. However, through the purpose of using the chakgowa(착고와) excavated from these tombs, even the changing aspects of the tomb system in the Goguryeo era can be inferred. Therefore, the excavation of chakgowa(착고와) from Goguryeo tombs proves the existence of structures built on tombs.
It is understood that structures built on these tombs began to be built in Goguryeo from about the 3rd century to the 5th century, and no more tombsang structures were built in the 6th century. This is most likely the result of changes in the tomb system introduced in Goguryeo society. and it was possible to estimate a new change in the Goguryeo tomb system in which consciousness of the dead was transferred from the ground to the inside of the tomb.

Published: May 2023

This study aims to determine the impact of corporate governance mechanism on the directors' remuneration disclosure level and firm value. Data were collected from annual reports of 200 selected companies listed in Bursa Malaysia from 2013 to 2019. Pooled OLS, longitudinal data and 2SLS was carried out to accomplish the objective. The results show that board independence significantly impact the directors’ remuneration disclosure level while CEO duality and board size are insignificant on the directors’ remuneration disclosure level. Another finding revealed that directors’ remuneration disclosure level and board size were significant in affecting the firm value. It was also found that directors’ remuneration disclosure does not mediated the relationship between board structure and firm value. This finding deserves the attention of the stakeholders, investors, policymakers, and organizations in modelling a high-level disclosure and governance structure in the corporate environment in enhancing firm value.

Published: May 2023

State Islamic Religious Council (SIRCs) in Malaysia were established for the social welfare under the purview of state enactments in an Islamic setting. Despite the absence of a profit motive, accountability must be upheld as it is set up to be the guardian of resources so that the trust of stakeholders could be obtained. SIRCs are expected to uphold their ethics and values in their overall operations.  However, a number of negative cases of SIRCs were reported in the local media which has tarnished the image of SIRCs. Thus governors of SIRCs should managed their human assets well. Human governance is the governors’ commitment to improve employees’ values and ethical behavior in the organization through their leadership, integrity fostered in the organization, training that the governors’ attended and internal control that has been put in place. The objective of the study is to examine whether Human Governance Index (HG INDEX) could be applied to SIRCs. HG INDEX comprise of 4 components which are (i) BOD Leadership, (ii) Level of Integrity Index, (iii) BOD Quantity of Training Index, and (iv) Quality of Internal Control System Index .  Thirteen(13), 2019 annual reports of SIRCs were used as a basis for data collection. Based on the findings, Quality of Internal control and  Level of Integrity were found to be the highest disclosed index. Overall, HG index was found to be low for SIRCs. Thus Governors of SIRCs can use the findings of the study  to increase their transparency and accountability to stakeholders by focusing on HG in order to gain the public  trust.
A Review Analysis of Earnings Management Report Disclosure
Authors: Abu Bakar Dalila , Haji Yahya Mohamed Hisham , Abdul Rahim Norhuda
Published: May 2023

Occupational fraud costs the average firm 5% of its annual income. This equates to a $3.7 trillion yearly loss due to fraud worldwide. The bulk of reported losses (51.9%) were less than $200,000. Financial statement fraud is the most expensive type of occupational fraud, with an average loss of $1,000,000. The most popular methods of detecting fraud are tips (42.2%), management reviews (16.0%), and internal audits (14.1%). Surprisingly, external audits (done by CPA firms) account for just about 3.0% of fraud detection. The majority of cases of fraud identified through tips come from workers (49.0%), followed by consumers (21.6%). Financial reports have been used to anticipate stock return, and firms with top management counsel (TMC) are less likely to see their stock price fall. Therefore, this paper offers a review of the research on earnings management conducted in earlier studies. The problem arising from earnings management will be covered under dilemma in earnings management disclosure studies. Next, evidence of earning management activities is discussing on the previous studied of earnings management. This study also investigates the approaches employed by early researchers to address this problem. The finding discovered by the researcher will be covered under the discussion on earnings management disclosure. Researchers can use this review paper as a reference for researching earnings management in annual reports
From Hamiltonian Dreams to Maastricht Reality: “Whatever It Takes” 2.0?
Authors: Bernatavičius Marijus
Published: May 2023

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the institutional architecture of the euro area has been tested again. While some authors argue that European policy makers have learnt from their economic policy mistakes during the sovereign debt crisis, or even talk about the “European Hamiltonian moment”, the opportunity to fundamentally strengthen the institutional foundations of the currency union has been missed again. While public attention has been focused mostly on the creation of the so-called “Next Generation EU” (NGEU) fund, it was the ECB that quietly performed the key role of crisis manager, despite criticism of a weak initial crisis response and botched communication. Based on the synthetic framework of the classical integration theories, the principal-agent model and new intergovernmentalism, the ECB’s pandemic crisis response could be interpreted as its second “whatever it takes” moment.

Ikan mas merupakan komoditas penting air tawar yang banyak dibudidayakan diberbagai lapisan masyarakat. Salah satu penyakit ikan mas yang sering dijumpai dalam kegiatan budidaya adalah Koi Herpesvirus (KHV). Pengetahuan terhadap perubahan morfologi dan tingkah laku dari ikan yang terinfeksi KHV sangat penting untuk mencegah kerugian kegiatan budidaya sejak dini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengamati gejala klinis ikan mas yang diinfeksi KHV skala laboratorium. Pengamatan gejala klinis ikan yang terinfeksi KHV diamati setiap jam selama 7-14 hari setelah infeksi. Pengamatan dilakukan pada perubahan morfologi (clinical signs) dan tingkah laku ikan (behaviour signs). Konfirmasi kematian ikan mas akibat KHV dilakukan dengan metode polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Hasil penelitian menujukkan bahwa perubahan morfologi (clinical signs) ikan terinfeksi KHV berupa nekrosis pada insang, geripis pada bagian sirip caudal, terdapat luka (ulcer) pada operculum, pendarahan (septicemia) pada bagian pinggir (operculum) dan mulut, serta mata cekung ke dalam dan memutih. Adapun perubahan tingkah laku berupa ikan tampak lemas, nafsu makan menurun, berenang tidak stabil, posisi ikan miring di dasar wadah, selalu berada disudut wadah, sering ke permukaan atau titik aerasi, berenang tidak teratur (posisi kepala diatas dan caudal pada bagian bawah), sirip dorsal menutup dan pergerakan mulut lebih cepat. Hasil konfrimasi PCR menunjukkan bahwa ikan yang menujukkan gejala klinis dan mati disebabkan KHV. Munculnya gejala klinis menjadi indikator untuk segera memberikan treatment mencegah kematian ikan.

Penggunaan pakan mandiri pada budidaya ikan patin dapat menurunkan biaya produksi. Kandungan protein pakan mandiri antara 18 - 22%, berakibat  sisa pakan  cukup tinggi dapat mencemari lingkungan budidaya. Kajian  tentang pemberian pakan protein rendah yang dapat menyebabkan pencemaran lingkungan masih sangat terbatas. Tujuan penelitian  adalah untuk mengevaluasi pengaruh pakan protein rendah terhadap kualitas air, profil darah dan performa produksi ikan patin. Rancangan acak dengan tiga perlakuan pakan protein 16%, 23%, dan 30% masing-masing perlakuan  tiga ulangan.  Benih  patin dengan  bobot  50 g dan dibudidayakan selama 60 hari sebanyak 20 ekor/koma dengan  volume air 1,8 m3.. Parameter yang diukur meliputi Suhu, pH, Oksigen terlarut, TOM, TDS, TSS, total amonia, nitrit, nitrat, total fosfat, eritrosit, leukosit, hemoglobin, hematokrit, kelimpahan fitoplankton, laju pertumbuhan, pertambahan bobot badan, kelangsungan hidup dan konversi pakan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kadar amonia dan kelimpahan fitoplankton tertinggi pada pakan protein 30% dibandingkan dengan pakan protein 16% dan 23%. Kadar eritrosit, leukosit, hemoglobin dan hematokrit tidak berbeda nyata pada ketiga perlakuan. Tingkat pertumbuhan dan pertambahan berat badan yang lebih tinggi dan konversi pakan terendah pada pakan protein 30%. Berdasarkan data hasil penelitian disimpulkan bahwa pemberian pakan protein sekitar 20% tidak menyebabkan  pencemaran media budidaya, dengan demikian  pakan mandiri dapat digunakan dalam budidaya patin.

In the literature on the subject, suicide is considered as a specific social phenomenon - one of the deviant behaviors, which is also an indicator of social disintegration. Due to the fact that the effects of suicide are social, suicide is classified as a social pathology, referred to as a social disease. Objective: To indicate that suicide is an important social problem with an increasing trend. Hypothesis: Adolescence is a period when there is a significant risk of committing suicide. Methods: The study used the method of analysis and system of professional literature, the monographic and descriptive method and the analysis of statistical data. Conclusions: The analysis and synthesis of source materials allows us to conclude that there are few fatal suicide attempts among children under 12 years of age. It is different in the case of young people aged 13-18, who already have a sense of their own mortality. Adolescents become capable of intellectually assimilating the physiological, metaphysical, and also biological aspects of death. Implications for theory and practice: Therefore, suicidal behavior, which is rare among children and in early adolescence, is becoming more common among adolescents. In addition, the occurrence of suicidal thoughts before puberty correlates with later suicide attempts, in adolescents (more often than in adults) there are repeated suicide attempts. Originality and value: The article attempts to systematize the determinants of suicidal behavior among young people and to present a suicide attempt as a personal and social problem in the category of threats.
Kapitał zagraniczny na rynku prasowym w regionie podkarpackim w latach 1993–2021: próba bilansu
Authors:   Uniwersytet Rzeszowski, Kuca Paweł
Published: May 2023

Companies with foreign capital have been operating on the press market in the Podkarpackie region for 28 years. Initially as minor shareholders, and since 2005 as the sole owners of a publishing house with a key position on the regional market, which published the largest daily Newspaper – Gazeta Codzienna "Nowiny". Foreign investor activity, in the Podkarpackie region went beyond the area of the regional press. The presence of foreign investors also had an impact on the local press market and the development of Internet-related media. Foreign capital also had to face the nationwide trends which were present in region, such as lower sales and the declining importance of the printed press. It seems that in this aspect, along with the growing crisis on the press market, foreign investors instead of taking care of the expense of the quality of published titles, were rather more interested in pursuing their own economic interests.

Published: May 2023

The purpose of the presented text is to analyze the forms of manifestation of local identity of migrants from the Podkarpacie region in the United States, using selected localities of the region as an example. The research was based on existing data (mainly censuses, personal documents, newspapers, passenger arrival records from the Ellis Island Archives) and elicited data (in-depth interviews). The exploration covered two neighboring counties: Strzyzow (nineteen villages) and Rzeszow (primarily Rzeszow and Harta). Examples of different ways of demonstrating local identity in the context of migration, presented in this text, clearly confirm how important an aspect it remains for the immigrant, and how crucial role it plays in the process of reconstructing identification in the destination country.

The article presents research on the impact of the financial crisis between 2007-2009 and the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 on the freight and passenger rail transport sector. Multidimensional comparative analyses were used in the study. The data obtained for the research were grouped. They were, then, compiled on categorized line and bar charts. The research shows that during the financial crisis between 2007-2009, a decrease in the number of transported goods by 48 488 thousand tons was observed. During the COVID-19 pandemic between 2019 and 2020, a decrease in the number of goods was also visible - by 15,363 tones. However, when considering the number of passengers transported, during the financial crisis between 2007-2009 in Poland there was an increase by 1,928 people and in the period of impact of COVID-19 in 2020 compared to 2019 a decrease by 130,270 passengers. When examining the rail passenger transport sector in Poland, a decrease in the number of employees by 385 was observed in the years 2003-2021. During the financial crisis between 2007-2009, the number of employees increased by 5,745 people, while during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, compared to 2019, it decreased by 109. In the case of the rail passenger transport sector in Poland, the number of employees oscillated around the arithmetic mean of 23,914 employees. Between 2003-2007, a downward trend can be observed, followed by a visible increase in 2008 and a downward trend in subsequent years.
Status dyscypliny „nauki o bezpieczeństwie” a wyzwania nauczania przed- miotów metodologicznych – wstępny zarys problemu

Published: May 2023

The study attempts to identify and diagnose the challenges of teaching methodological subjects in the fields of study assigned to the discipline "security science" and to answer the question whether a canon of teaching methodological subjects has been formed. The study is of a contributory nature and contains a preliminary diagnosis of the problem, although it may become a starting point for planning and developing systematic research in this area. The source substrate was provided, inter alia, by data contained in the RAD-on system and available on-line documentation of studies, as well as scientific studies and textbooks relating to the theory and methodology of security sciences and the status of the discipline 'security sciences'. The main thesis of the article assumes that the scope and content of the methodological subjects are influenced by several pre-identified factors: general (related to the genesis of the discipline, its development in Poland and worldwide, the degree of absorption of Anglosphere output, the development and availability of textbooks) and local (i.e. the genesis of the field of study, the assignment of a given field of study to disciplines, the education of staff, the profile of studies).

Ensuring the level of internal security of the state requires systemic legal solutions aimed at the protection of this value. It also refers to other goods that may be endangered or, as a result of events resulting from threats being a consequence of the laws of nature or civilization development, become the subject of violations. On the legislative basis, securing the implementation of this goal is therefore tantamount to the state's obligation to legislate and apply the law in the area of the organization of the state's internal security system, and within it, an integrated rescue system obliged to protect these values and goods. Therefore, the considerations taken are to demonstrate the basic assumptions of the organization and functioning of the national rescue and firefighting system as one of the elements of the organization of the state's internal security and the rescue system, based on the provisions of the law. In this respect, it is also helpful to assess the status of public authorities with competences and tasks, responsible for the national rescue and firefighting system at individual levels, as well as system units for rescue operations aimed at the said protection.
Krytyczne spojrzenie na promowanie demokracji
Authors:   Uniwersytet w Białymstoku, Waśko-Owsiejczuk Ewelina
Published: May 2023

The global spread of democracy is considered one of the most remarkable changes in world politics in the 20 th century. Due to the strong correlation between the democratic system and the free market, democracy promotion began to become a more common practice, carried out by an increasing number of international actors. The purpose of this article is to take a critical view of democracy promotion. In doing so, it is important to show which actors are promoting democracy, as well as to present their main objectives, in order to finally focus on a critical analysis of the phenomenon of democracy promotion, with a reference to the most important arguments appearing on the subject, both in academic and political discourse. The article singles out key factors affecting the weakening of democracy promotion abroad, pointing to: the limited ability of international actors to influence the democratization process of individual countries, which depends on a number of internal factors; the decline in credibility, trust in democracy promoters (especially the US), and the conflict of goals and interests.

Over the centuries the identity of the peasants has evolved. It was largely influenced by the experiences of generations, shaped by history, socio-economic and political situation; it changed under the influence of the conditions in which they lived. The peasants' belonging to a specific community constituted the basis of their values and had a significant impact in all possible relationships. Identity – the authenticity of peasants was perpetuated in their long and quaint history, in the very difficult and peculiar existence of this social class. It was shaped in the course of centuries of hard work in closed peasant culture and customs. The serfdom system lasted 400 years, and these 400 years long the peasant identity was shaped. It is not surprising that despite the change in social conditions, they still remained in the shackles of the serfdom determined mentality. The formation of a certain type of personality, which lasted for a very long time, is considered an undoubted consequence of serfdom. Peasants constituted the cornerstone of society and the nation for the politicians of the Polish People's Party "Piast", they were the inspiration for their political concepts and actions. The article attempts to prove to what extent the living conditions of peasants determined their identity and to what extent the impact of activities of PSL Piast contributed to the transformation of their identity.
