“Can you guess what every woman’s worst nightmare is?”: Good for Her Film, and Contextualising Rape-Revolt in post-Weinstein America and Promising Young Woman
Authors: Frantz Chris
Published: June 2024

The #MeToo moment following Harvey Weinstein's sexual abuse allegations led to a change in the way we make sense of ra;e allegations within popular discourse. In film, changes to the discursive construction of women's rights movements became key to what Barbara Creed calls the Feminist New Wave cinema. The rape-revenge film inserts itself into this new landscape of social and online activism too, as it starts to evolve into a 'rape-revolt' narrative structure, which aims to treat rape within film as a source of political revolt and a way to challenge institutions which uphold rape culture. Promising Young Woman (Emerald Fennell, 2020) interrogates these changes to the public reception of rape culture within a post-Weinstein framework which allows for a nuanced perspective on rape-revenge, taking into account a flawed criminal justice system, corrupt institutions, and enablers' personal failures. This article argues that the Weinstein scandal and its consequence on public discourse have started to influence the ways in which cinema makes sense of rape, and furthermore situates films of the Feminist New Wave within a movement which social media users have called the 'Good for Her' film. 
“Crystallization” of Cultural Identity as the Main Mechanism of Formation of the Modern Polycultural World
Authors:   Tomsk State University of Architecture and Building, Galmagova Gezal M.
Published: June 2024

The modern global landscape is characterized by a complex interplay of cultural forces, necessitating a deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying the formation and negotiation of cultural identities. This article explores the concept of “crystallization” as a fundamental mechanism for shaping cultural identity in the context of the modern polycultural world. Drawing on insights from social philosophy and cultural studies, the article examines the dynamics of cultural interactions and the emergence of non-complementarity in modern society. The notion of “eternal return” is introduced as a main tool through which cultural identities are perpetuated and reinforced over time. The crisis of polyculturalism is analyzed in light of increasing national conflicts and challenges to the principle of cultural equivalence. This crisis underscores the need for new approaches to fostering dialogic relations and mitigating the proliferation of conflict and non-complementarity. Convergent technologies are identified as pivotal in the “crystallization” of cultural identities, transcending traditional boundaries and facilitating the convergence of diverse cultural expressions. This phenomenon has profound implications for the negotiation of identity in modern society. The study highlights the importance of understanding the mechanisms of cultural identity formation in addressing the challenges of the modern polycultural world. By elucidating the concept of “crystallization” and its implications for social philosophy, the article contributes to ongoing discussions on polyculturalism and identity politics.
On the Issue of Understanding Collectivism as a Value of National Traditional Culture
Authors:   Kuzbass State Technical University named after T.F. Gorbachev (branch), Evsina Tatiana A.
Published: June 2024

Understanding collectivism as a traditional Russian spiritual and moral value is not just relevant, but vital. This is directly related to the issue of preserving national identity against the background of globalization processes and the global geopolitical situation. The constant need to respond effectively to new challenges and threats forces us to turn to our cultural origins and traditional values, which consolidate the essence and strength of the people. The concept of collectivism as a value category has evolved and been enriched with new meanings in Russian philosophical thought. However, it should be acknowledged that collectivism has been, is, and will remain one of the fundamental traditional Russian values, the correct understanding, awareness, and acceptance of which contribute to the preservation of Russian national and cultural identity. The aim of this study is to examine the understanding of collectivism in modern philosophical discourse to reassess its influence on modern Russian society, its self-awareness, and development prospects. The research utilized the method of analysis of literary sources and the method of comparative analysis, juxtaposing various perspectives on this issue.
The Category of Social Space in the History of Socio-Philosophical Thought
Authors:   Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia named after Patrice Lumumba, Kirsanova Yuliya A.
Published: June 2024

This article is an analysis of the development of philosophical thought regarding the category of “social space”, including the relevant historical and philosophical understanding of the category of “space”, which is relevant in this issue. The problem of social space was first formulated in the XIX century, which was an important stage in the study of the category “space”. This ontological inquiry, intrinsic to philosophical discourse, has captivated the intellects of scholars across epochs. In the XIX–XX centuries, the problem of space acquired a broader meaning and began to include the concept of social space. The aim of the study is to scrutinize the category of “social space” through the lens of historical socio-philosophical ruminations and the diverse perspectives offered by philosophers. This analytical endeavor aims to contemporize the discourse surrounding social space, fostering its resonance within anthropological, social, and sociological discourses, alongside its implications for urban studies and urban philosophy
International Education as a Subject of Comparative Research in Western Theory
Authors:   Transbaikal State University, Wang Meng
Published: June 2024

The article presents an analysis of the Western theory of international education from the point of view of substantiating the comparative approach as the dominant method in foreign research on this topic. The novelty of the research lies in the description of comparative international education as a field of scientific interests of Western authors. Its specificity lies in the fact that it makes it possible to consider general trends in global education, and not only to analyze its individual directions. The international centers CIE, CICED, CESA, WCCES, using this method, analyze national strategies in the field of education, the dynamics of industry development, pedagogical practices, traditions, and prospects for international education in the context of globalization. A study of the works of Western authors has revealed that today the theory of international education has not yet been fully formed. This is indicated by problems such as borrowing and innovation in this environment, the lack of coordination between the results of its research and the activities of relevant ministries. To identify the opportunities and risks that are present in the Western theory of comparative international education, the author used a comparative approach, phenomenological, interpretative and descriptive methods. Moving forward, continued interdisciplinary dialogue and methodological refinement are essential for advancing the theory and practice of international education in a rapidly changing world. Ultimately, fostering collaboration among scientists, policymakers, and practitioners is imperative for realizing the full potential of international education as a catalyst for global development and cooperation.
The Concept of a Form of Life in the Ontology of the XIX – Early XX Centuries
Authors:   Surgut State University, Syskova Marina D.
Published: June 2024

The article examines the formation and evolution of the concept of life forms in philosophy of the XIX – early XX centuries. The author points out the ambivalence of the form of life as a biological and socio-cultural phenomenon. In the first section, the author shows how the concept of forms of life was understood in biology and philosophy. The author comes to the conclusion that in non-classical thought, the concept of a form of life biologically means a living organism placed in a habitat, and in philosophy – a lifestyle, habits, customs, human character, as well as some background consisting of tacit agreements, assumptions. The second section delves into Oswald Spengler’s conception as an example of understanding form of life in philosophy of the XIX – early XX centuries. O. Spengler considers various types of cultures as forms of life, and his research proceeds from the duality of this concept. The thinker identifies common characteristics specific to each culture, describing them in biological terms, yet simultaneously underscores their uniqueness and irreducibility to the particularities of other cultures.
The Contradictory Perception of F. Nietzsche’s Ideas by Postmodernism Using the Example of R. Rorty’s Theory
Authors:   Novorossiysk branch of the Financial University under the Government of Russia Novorossiysk, Iritsyan Gurgen E.
Published: June 2024

The article delves into the intricacies of how postmodernist theorists perceive and creatively utilize Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophical heritage. Using the theories of American analytic philosopher, pragmatist, and postmodernist Richard Rorty as a focal point, it elucidates the conflicting and ambiguous interpretations of key concepts such as the crisis of culture, metaphysics, the ubermensch (overman), and others. Postmodernists, in their idiosyncratic endeavors, creatively appropriate the legacies of their predecessors, including F. Nietzsche. For Rorty and some other modern thinkers, Nietzsche becomes not a model, but an irritant and motivator, based on which new, avant-garde discourses about the world, society and man are modeled. Richard Rorty’s inquiries, however, inadequately encapsulate Nietzsche’s legacy in both his envisaged model of the forthcoming “post-philosophical” culture and from the perspectives of Rorty himself and some of his critics. The comprehensive legacy of Friedrich Nietzsche thus eludes Rorty’s studies, challenging his proposed model of future culture and inviting critique from various quarters.

This article delves into the peculiarities of the economic development of the USSR during the years 1953–1964. It illustrates Nikita Khrushchev's endeavor as a political leader to enact economic transformations in the country in line with his ideological course of de-Stalinization and relative liberalization. It argues that the absence of a pragmatic economic strategy based on the actual state of affairs in the country led to the implementation of inconsistent reforms, primarily focused on organizational and administrative changes. Economic decisions during the Khrushchev Thaw, including the abolition of sectoral planning, introduction of egalitarian wage systems, nationalization of industrial cooperatives, and transition to a territorial principle of economic management, were conceived as bold innovative reforms but failed to consider the actual conditions and accumulated historical experience, leading to a crisis in the industrial sector. In conclusion, the economic policies pursued during the Khrushchev Thaw exemplify the challenges of implementing bold reforms without a pragmatic understanding of the prevailing economic conditions. The crisis in the industrial sector underscores the importance of evidence-based decision-making and historical context in shaping effective economic strategies.
Dynamics of Cultural and Political Development of the Ingush People in 1920–1930 Years
Authors:   Ingush State University, Akieva Khava M.
Published: June 2024

The dynamics of the cultural and political development of the Ingush people during the 1920–1930s is examined in the article, focusing on the gradual elimination of their statehood. It presents an overview of the contradictory policies of Soviet power in the region. On one hand, processes of modernization and Europeanization were pursued under a unified Soviet policy, while on the other hand, they exhibited regional specificities. The inherent contradictions in the Soviet power’s national policies were inevitable within the totalitarian model of command-administrative systems. Despite declaring internationalism as the basis for a future communist society, the practical process of autonomization often involved the territorial division along ethnic lines, which sometimes did not align with the local population’s national composition. Territorial administration was arbitrary, leading to land disputes that remain relevant today. The Soviet government, pursuing a policy of cultural development of the Ingush Autonomous Region, creating a network of educational institutions, forming national personnel from among the Ingush, simultaneously carried out repression of the Ingush intelligentsia. This process was accompanied by territorial disturbances, resulting in the loss of established infrastructure alongside the loss of statehood. The policy of “korenizatsiya” (indigenization) was marked by excesses; however, the struggle for the cultural development of the Ingush people, as an integral part of the ideological work of the Soviet state, ultimately achieved significant successes.
Official Activities of the Organizational and Instructional Department of the Leningrad City Council of Workers’ Deputies in 1943–1945
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Amosova Alisa A.
Published: June 2024

The activities of the Organizational and Instructional Department of the Leningrad City Council during the war and blockade have not previously been subjected to detailed study. The significance of this scientific problem is, first of all, due to the role of instructors, which they played in organizing and monitoring the implementation of regulatory decisions of the Leningrad City Executive Committee, as well as resolutions of local and central party authorities. The article reconstructs the main approaches to the work of an instructor in 1943–1945, identifies the most significant areas of activity, analyzes the problems of the functioning of Department and practical steps to solve them. During the period under study, the key vector of activity of the Leningrad City Executive Committee was the implementation of restoration measures in Leningrad. The study introduces into scientific circulation regulatory and records materials deposited in the Central State Archives of St. Petersburg. By reconstructing the main approaches to instructor work, analyzing key directions of activity, and evaluating challenges and solutions, this article sheds light on the multifaceted dynamics of governance amidst the exigencies of war and blockade.

Published: June 2024

The article delves into the philosophical analysis of the concept of the subject of pedagogical activity. The concept of the subject in the context of pedagogical activity has long been a subject of philosophical inquiry. The authors focus on the well-known principle of subject-to-subject relations, wherein both the educator and the learners are considered subjects of activity, has gained prominence in educational discourse. The authors argue that despite the attractiveness of this approach, it has certain limitations. To be considered a subject of pedagogical activity, individuals must meet specific requirements. Therefore, the authors of the article suggest that assuming all learners are a priori subjects of pedagogical activity is a flawed assumption. This article aims to provide a rationale for this thesis and spark a discussion on this topic. Much in this matter hinges on the definition of the concept of the subject of pedagogical activity. In conclusion, the concept of the subject of pedagogical activity warrants a nuanced philosophical analysis to elucidate the complexities inherent in attributing subjecthood in educational settings. By delineating the criteria for subject status and deconstructing the notion of universal subjectivity, this article contributes to the ongoing discourse on the nature of pedagogical relationships and the dynamics of agency within educational frameworks.
The Political Language of the Conservative Nobility during the Peasant Reform Period
Authors:   Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia, Seliverstova Natalia M.
Published: June 2024

The article examines the political language of the conservative nobility during the preparation and implementation of the peasant reform. As the intention of the government to abolish serfdom became evident to society and the general contours of this reform became clear, proponents of conservative ideals within the nobility sought to articulate their position on this pressing issue. The political language used by actors does not always literally coincide with the content of the statement. The author highlights the characteristics inherent in this language, both aimed at an external audience, that is, government officials, the educated public in general, as well as used within a circle of like-minded people. In the first case, the language of the conservative nobility is emphatically archaic, in the second case it is devoid of this distinctive feature. In addition, if necessary, the conservative nobility uses the argumentation and language of the liberal camp to defend their interests.
Oriental Elements in Russian Culture

The article examines the influence of oriental elements of culture on the development of the Russian cultural tradition. The aim of the work is to show the importance of elements of the culture of Oriental peoples in the formation of various aspects of the culture of Russian civilization and to identify its specific oriental features and characteristics. The relevance of the research is determined by changes in the current geopolitical situation of the Russian Federation, the rupture of many historical, cultural and ideological ties with Western countries a pivot towards the East, and Russia’s transition to more productive cooperation and close interaction with Eastern countries in the Asian and South Pacific regions in various spheres of public, governmental, and socio-cultural life: politics, economics and socio-cultural relations. The scientific novelty is defined by the authors’ examination of the objective characteristics of Eastern elements of culture and their comprehensive analysis of the degree of their impact on Russian cultural tradition. Moreover, in solving this research task, they proceed from the self-sufficiency of the considered Eastern elements of Russian culture without tracing their connection to other forms of cultural development of human civilization. The authors have shown that Eastern elements have played a significant role in the development of the creative, human potential of Russian culture, and the prolonged silence about this fact, focusing exclusively towards Westernized cultural patterns, violated the principle of objectivity accepted in Russian science. Revisiting this principle concerning Eastern culture promises to aid impartial researchers in objectively scrutinizing cultural processes, spanning both historical retrospectives and modern historical period. In conclusion, the research highlights the pivotal role of oriental cultural elements in shaping Russian civilization, underscoring the necessity for a balanced and objective approach to cultural analysis. Embracing this principle will facilitate a more nuanced understanding of Russian cultural development, bridging historical and modern perspectives.

The article examines the exhibition space of Russian museums of the Soviet and post-Soviet periods as an object of culture. Emphasis is placed on its importance in shaping and reflecting social values, and the evolution of exhibition spaces, design elements, and the role they play in presenting, interpreting, and preserving cultural heritage are examined. The discussion covers the layout, interconnection and functionality of the various zones inside the museum. The tasks in designing architectural and artistic solutions for museum complexes are perhaps one of the most difficult in environmental design. Here it is necessary to take into account functionality, ergonomics, aesthetics, subordinating them to the general concept of the museum complex, considering the regularity of the location of objects, the movement of visitor flows, the zoning of space, taking into account the safety and preservation of cultural objects. The article highlights the design features of the museum space of the XX–XXI centuries, taking into account historical changes, political realities, stylistic trends and trends in art.

Much has been said about moral and social justice in the realm of philosophical knowledge; the concept of ‘public good’ threads through all epochs of philosophical development, spanning from Antiquity to modernity. However, this article proposes to examine the issue from a particular angle. This dichotomy allows us to divide the vast cluster of moral-ethical theories into two major groups: those who conceptualize their system based on the common good and those who derive from strong individualistic foundations. The article not only offers a description of each of these approaches but also contextualizes their outcomes through the lens of modernity. The conclusions will be based on a broad array of sources, comprising both specialized literature and classical treatises of thinkers. Moving forward, a nuanced approach that acknowledges the interplay between collective welfare and individual rights is essential for advancing a more just and equitable society.
Philosophical Aspects on the Influence of Counterculture as a Phenomenon of Sociocultural Domination in Modern Mass Media
Authors:   Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, Petrash Nikolay D. , Petrash Elena V. ,   Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation
Published: June 2024

The relevance of this paper is conditioned by the fact that the ideas and values broadcast through mass communication media influence both the development and socialization of an individual and the comfortable existence of the whole society. The aim of the paper is to analyze how the counterculture influences society through mass communication media. This goal mediates the implementation of the following tasks: to disclose the content of the concepts of “communication” and “mass communication”; to outline the main functions of mass communication media; to analyze the nature of publications of the “Topor” Telegram channel; to disclose the content of the term “counterculture”; to note its main functions. The basis of the study was formed by the works of Ya. Assmann, A.G. Donskikh, I.A. Zosimenko, V.V. Kasyanov, A.A. Kokorina, E.S. Muratova and others. As a result, it is concluded that the broadcasting of countercultural values by mass communication media, which is taking place today (which is confirmed by analyzing the publications of the “Topor” telegram channel), can lead to the limitation of the dominant culture, substitution of its principles, as a result of which the traditional values relevant to Russian society will be destroyed. For this reason, we believe that mass media, namely channels in the social network “Telegram”, need additional control by supervisory authorities, which will allow levelling countercultural functions and preserving traditional values.

Authors:   Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, Zheng Yanke
Published: June 2024

In the context of global changes, the deepening of multilateral strategic cooperation between Russia and China has become an important area of demonstrating the universal value and fundamental importance of comprehensive cooperation between countries in a new era. The challenges of our time associated with protracted regional conflicts, changing paradigms of international communication, management dilemmas, a lack of strategic mutual trust, and changes in the perception of the role of each country necessitate joint efforts by states to mitigate them. It is emphasized that the SCO and BRICS mechanisms can be used for this purpose, with some adjustments. On the one hand, it is important to harmonize the management focus and functional boundaries of the SCO, to use the complementary strengths and innovative potential of the countries in the activities of the association. On the other hand, it is necessary to enhance the environmental sustainability of states and the strength of their cooperation within BRICS, to standardize the various requirements of participants and ensure the merger of their interests, to explore opportunities for cooperation based on the Sino-Russian experience and use them to develop a strategy of multilateral interaction aimed at conducting constructive reforms and establishing a multipolar international order on an equitable basis.

Achieving sustainable growth in a strategic perspective entails prioritizing the transformation of production and socio-economic processes based on innovations. This transformation necessitates close interaction and co-development among various participants and elements of the infrastructure, thus requiring the application of ecosystem principles for effective management. This study aims to develop a tool for managing the implementation of these processes and enhancing their efficiency based on an ecosystem approach. The principles of the latter, along with the tenets of the dynamic capabilities concept, serve as the methodological foundation of the research. The object of the study comprises production and economic systems of interactions among individual subjects at the regional level, utilized for implementing innovative processes. The subject encompasses the processes of strategic management of interaction systems. The authors have developed and described a model of balanced development of interorganizational association, involving three main participants of the innovation process and relying on the principles of the resource concept and ecosystem approach to form sustainable value of interaction in a strategic perspective. This model enables a visual representation and description of the implementation of the process supporting innovative transformations in production and economic systems. By integrating ecosystem principles and resource concepts, it facilitates sustainable value creation and supports innovative transformations in production and economic systems, thus contributing to long-term strategic objectives.
Subject of Administrative Liability for Committing Offenses in the Field of Artificial Intelligence-equipped Vehicle Operation: Debatable Aspects
Authors:   Admiral Ushakov Maritime State University, Lunev Dmitry O.
Published: June 2024

The paper explores some of the discussion points regarding the determination of the subject of administrative liability for committing offenses in the field of artificial intelligence-equipped vehicle operation. It is noted that legal regulation in the field of transportation safety, taking into account the emergence of electric vehicles, is actively evolving. However, the regulation of administrative liability for offenses in the field of vehicle operation with elements of artificial intelligence has not yet been reflected in current legislation. Based on the analysis conducted, the author draws several conclusions. Particularly, it is determined that there is a pressing need for regulating public relations considering the use of technologies with elements of artificial intelligence, especially in public legal relations, including administrative and criminal law. Presently, there are no specific provisions in modern administrative law dedicated to formulating offenses with regard to the use (operation) of technologies, including vehicles with elements of artificial intelligence. However, the author believes that this gap will be addressed by the legislator in the near future. Analysis of scientific literature led to the conclusion that the subject of administrative liability in this field should be differentiated based on the future composition of administrative offenses proposed by the legislator, as well as depending on the factual circumstances.

The UN – Habitat Program Impact on Practical Transition from the Consumer Society Ideology to a Sustainable Development
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Argvliani Karina R.
Published: June 2024

The prevalence of hyper-consumption and production within urban settings not only exacerbates environmental pressures but also amplifies social inequalities. With global urbanization rates soaring, a cohesive approach to sustainable urban development and effective monitoring becomes imperative. In this regard, UN-Habitat is a key body that can ensure the transition from the values of the consumer society to the principles of a sustainable society. The aim of the article is to show the importance of UN-Habitat’s activities in the transition from consumer society ideals to an inclusive and sustainable future based on the principles of quality of life, which is stated in the organization’s program documents. By adopting a comprehensive approach, this study examines the influence of UN-Habitat on reshaping the consumer society ideology through analysis of programmatic documents and organizational activities, highlighting its role in fostering a global and municipal perspective on sustainable urban development aligned with principles of enhanced quality of life. The UN-Habitat program plays a crucial role in steering societies away from consumer society ideologies towards sustainable development paradigms, as evidenced by its policy initiatives and programmatic interventions. Its efforts are instrumental in reshaping global and municipal perspectives on urban development, promoting a future marked by improved quality of life and environmental stewardship.

Published: June 2024

Introduction: Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) occurs in 5–15% of all cases of breast cancer. In most studies, it is found to be more common among older patients, form larger tumours and present with ill-defined margins, in comparison to invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC).
Material and methods: Histological preparations were obtained from 651 patients suffering from breast cancer. Preparations stained with hematoxylin and eosin were used to identify tumour type and grading. Samples underwent a basic molecular profile evaluation encompassing ER (oestrogen receptor), PR (progesterone receptor) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression.
Results: 592 cases of IDC and 59 cases of ILC were detected. The median age was 60 in both groups. While there were no statistically significant differences between IDC and ILC in nodal status and tumour size for all age groups, IDC was more frequently diagnosed at higher grading (G3). G3 accounted for 32% of all IDC specimens compared to only 13% of ILC specimens. In both groups, the most prevalent combination of hormone receptors was ER+/PR+/HER2-. The differences in ER and PR expression were statistically significant; both were assessed as positive in most ILC cases and just over half of IDC. No HER2 amplification was noted in most cases in both cancer subtypes.
Conclusions: In our study, IDC and ILC showed no difference with respect to patients’ median age at the diagnosis and local disease advancement defined by TNM. ILC cases were hormone-dependent and HER2-negative more frequently than IDC. Grade 3 tumours accounted for a higher proportion of IDC cases. This was in line with several other clinicopathological analyses of breast cancer. However, there are also several papers indicating ILC’s association with favourable prognostic features, not only in terms of hormone receptors and HER2 expression but also tumour size and nodal involvement. This underlines the fact that clear differences between IDC and ILC prognosis still cannot be established.

Resumo A escassez de direitos e de oportunidades no ambiente acadêmico pode ser um fator motivador para educadores (FREIRE, 2004) sentirem-se impulsionados a realizar empreendimentos e iniciativas em prol dos estudantes. E, assim, buscar melhores qualidade de vida, sentido do trabalho e no trabalho (CALVOSA, 2022) nesse ambiente. O que poderá motivar um processo de treinamento e retroalimentação nos alunos e, por extensão, na comunidade acadêmica, com a perspectiva de potencializar decisões de carreira e introduzir novas visões de mundo (MELO; APARÍCIO; OLIVEIRA, 2009);

Tematem manuskryptu jest próba zwrócenia uwagi na problem opuszczonych i zanikających obiektów zabytkowych objętych prawną ochroną konserwatorską zlokalizowanych w południowo-wschodniej części Polski. W badaniach poszukiwano przyczyn takiego stanu rzeczy, a także przedstawiono propozycję rozwiązań celem zapobiegania takim sytuacjom. Zaproponowano również konkretne działania rewaloryzacyjne dla założenia dworsko-parkowego w Sobianowicach. Opracowano następujące analizy: stanu istniejącego, historyczną, komunikacyjną, formalno-prawną, a także wykonano szczegółową inwentaryzację dendrologiczną dla parku w Sobianowicach.Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań powstały wytyczne do dalszego postępowania z dworem i otaczającym go parkiem. Rewaloryzacja dworu to proces, który ma na celu przywrócenie zabytkowemu budynkowi jego dawnej świetności oraz dostosowanie go do współczesnych potrzeb i standardów. Aktualnie jednak największym problemem jest brak środków finansowych na jakiekolwiek prace zabezpieczające, rewaloryzacyjne czy adaptacyjne. Rewaloryzacja dworu to proces długotrwały i wymagający współpracy wielu specjalistów, w tym architektów, konserwatorów, inżynierów i ekspertów od dziedzictwa kulturowego. Jednak efekty tego procesu pozwalajązachować cenne dziedzictwo kulturowe i historyczne oraz przekształcić zaniedbany obiekt w atrakcyjne miejsce dla społeczności lokalnej i turystów.
Szkodniki lipy drobnolistnej w warunkach miejskich na przykładzie Lublina
Authors: Mackoś-Iwaszko Ewa
Published: June 2024

Lipa drobnolistna jest drzewem o dużych walorach estetycznych, dlatego jest często stosowana na obszarach miejskich. Jednakże wartości dekoracyjne lipy mogą zmniejszyć się w związku z żerowaniem stawonogów roślinożernych, które ją zasiedlają. Badania nad składem gatunkowym szkodliwych stawonogów zasiedlających lipę drobnolistną (Tilia cordataMill.),
prowadzono na terenie Lublina w latach 2008-2010 , w dwóch stanowiskach – przyulicznym i osiedlowym. Stwierdzono występowanie przedstawicieli 31 gatunków, 19 rodzin i 6 rzędów. Z przeprowadzonych badań wynika, że dominowały fitofagi o kłująco-ssącym aparacie gębowym, a najliczniej występowali przedstawiciele rzędów Hemiptera i Prostigmata.
The effect of different doses of multi-nutrient fertilisers on macro-element content in two spring triticale cultivars
Authors: Rzążewska Emilia
Published: June 2024

A field experiment was conducted in the years 2017–2019 at Borki-Wyrki, Zbuczyn Gmina (commune). Three experimental factors were examined in the trial: factor one was spring triticale cultivar (Milewo, Dublet), factor two was mineral fertiliser type (Polifoska 6, Polifoska Krzem) and factor three was mineral fertiliser rate (0, 140, 280 and 420 kg ha–1). Phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, calcium and sodium contents in grain varied in study years as affected by weather patterns. The highest phosphorus, magnesium and sodium contents were determined in the grain of spring triticale cv. Dublet whereas the highest potassium and calcium contents in cv. Milewo grain. The applied fertiliser rates increased mineral contents, excluding magnesium and sodium, in the grain of test cultivars. Chemical composition analysis of grain of the spring triticale cultivars demonstrated that there was no significant effect of fertiliser type on grain quality.
Wpływ odmiany i terminu siewu na przezimowanie i plonowanie grochu siewnego (Pisum sativum L.) w województwie kujawsko-pomorskim
Authors: Prusiński Janusz , Borowska Magdalena
Published: June 2024

Przedmiotem badań była ocena plonowania 14 zagranicznych odmian grochu siewnego wysiewanych w 3 terminach jesiennych i terminie wiosennym, w którym wysiewano krajową odmianę Batuta. Ścisłe dwuczynnikowe doświadczenia polowe przeprowadzono w 3 sezonach wegetacyjnych (2017/2018, 2018/2019 i 2019/2020). Określano wiosenną obsadę roślin, plon nasion, zawartość i plon białka w nasionach oraz indeks powierzchni liściowej (LAI). W pierwszym i drugim terminie siewu w 2017 r. nie przezimowały żadne odmiany, a w terminie trzecim – tylko 5 odmian. Z powodu suszy wiosną 2018 r. średni plon nasion wszystkich odmian zagranicznych wynosił zaledwie 1,63 t‧ha–1. W sezonie 2018/2019 dzięki korzystniejszym warunkom termicznym nie przezimowało tylko 6 odmian z pierwszego terminu i 2 odmiany z drugiego terminu siewu. Jednak w 2019 r. zanotowano skrajnie niekorzystne warunki wilgotnościowe, dlatego średni plon nasion z tych terminów wynosił zaledwie 1,90 t‧ha–1. Wszystkie badane odmiany przezimowały jedynie w korzystnym sezonie 2019/2020 i ich średni plon nasion z badanych terminów wynosił 3,52 t‧ha–1, a najwyższy plon uzyskano w trzecim jesiennym terminie siewu.

Celem badań była ocena wielkości i częstości niedoborów oraz nadmiarów opadów atmosferycznych na Lubelszczyźnie w latach 1971–2020 w uprawie pszenicy ozimej. W pracy wykorzystano miesięczne wartości średniej temperatury powietrza oraz sumy opadów atmosferycznychz 11 stacji meteorologicznych. Wykorzystano również dane statystyczne dotyczące plonów pszenicy ozimej, uprawianej na obszarze środkowo-wschodniej Polski w latach 1971–2020. Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań stwierdzono, że średnie sumy miesięcznych opadów były zbliżone do potrzeb opadowych pszenicy ozimej. Jednak zaobserwowano dużą zmienność czasową i przestrzennąopadów atmosferycznych. W kwietniu i w maju zakres niedoborów i nadmiarów opadów był mniejszy niż w czerwcu i lipcu. Częstość występowania niedoborów i nadmiarów opadów była większa w części zachodniej badanego obszaru (zlewnia górnej Wisły) niż w części wschodniej i północno-wschodniej (zlewnia Bugu i Narwi). Na wielkość plonów pszenicy ozimej istotny wpływ miały tylko niedobory opadów w maju i w czerwcu. Problem ocieplenia klimatu i w konsekwencji wzrost zmienności opadów atmosferycznych wskazuje na potrzebę prowadzenia dalszych badań naukowych w uprawie tak strategicznego zboża.
