Principle of permanent sovereignty over natural resources in rulings of international courts
Authors: Nawrot Filip 
Published: December 2020

Despite the fact of moving gradually away from the traditional energy sources, and reducing the share of the energy from the coal-fired power stations in the energy production, extraction of minerals other than hard coal remains crucial for human existence. It is enough to mention natural gas, metal ores, metals, gypsum, sand, precious stones, or thermal waters. However, it is necessary to keep in mind that geology and nature do not recognise the national boundaries, which results in the fact that some mineral deposits can be divided between two or more state territories. This leads to the situation when they are subject to the varied legal regimes. There is also a possibility of them being located outsidethe sovereignty or jurisdiction of any state. There are still under-researched topics connected with mining. The aim of this study is to define legal issues related to cross-border mining, the so-called shared natural resources, and to present solutions to problems identified respectively. The second step, after analysis of the terms natural resources and shared natural resources, will involve an analysis of the principle of permanent sovereignty over natural resources in rulings of international courts.
Jak się filozofuje z siodła? Przypadek Michela de Montaigne’a
Authors: Krupecka Iwona 
Published: December 2020

In this text I am collecting and interpreting Michel de Montaigne’s reflections on the horses and horse-riding. I argue that there are two basic problems in which this theme was used by Montaigne: the fragility and unexpectedness of human life and body-mind relation. In both fields Montaigne proposed a re-evaluation in relation to the classical culture. In the first one, by interpreting Plato’s “practice of death” as an art of exposing oneself to an unexpected, and in the second, by linking mind activity with the bodily processes.
Braci mniejszych większy sens. Zwierzę w wierszach Georga Trakla i Bolesława Leśmiana
Authors: Kołodziej Dorota 
Published: December 2020

Georg Trakl as well as Bolesław Leśmian used poetry to question about peoples’ relationship with the world and both of them noticed that – as Tadeusz Sławek in the article Ratujące niebezpieczeństwo postsekularyzmu wrote – “human could be saved or redeemed only thanks to something which is nonhuman and associated with animal or God.” This statement is for me the Anzatspunkt and allows to compare a poem entitled W locie by Bolesław Leśmian and a mysterious blaues Wild figure in Trakl’s pieces. This article attempts to show specific identity of an animal, which is usually defined as the other being. It is possible to observe this factor also on the language basis. The name “animal” – as Jacques Derrida noticed – violent by itself, is a harmful category. Leśmian’s godlike creature and blaues Wild are not easy to describe –they make readers attentive to the text. This article attempts to analyse this problematic animal noun, because without understanding its nature it might be also impossible to solve the issue what “humane” and “divine” mean.
A Non-Anthropocentric Area of Animals’ Memory in Wake, a Short Story by Shaun Tan. A Conspicuous Example of Developing Pro-Animal Sensitivity among Children
Authors: Slany Katarzyna 
Published: December 2020

Niniejszy artykuł jest literaturoznawczą interpretacją opowiadania Czuwanie i towarzyszącej mu ilustracji postmodernistycznego australijskiego artysty Shauna Tana, którego dzieła wpisują się w dyskursy posthumanizmu. Wybrany utwór to dzieło wyjątkowe, dalekie od klasycznych realizacji tematów prozwierzęcych w najnowszej literaturze dziecięcej. Utwór analizuję przez pryzmat studiów nad zwierzętami, praw zwierząt oraz ich podmiotowości, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem debaty nad redefiniowaniem śmierci zwierzęcia towarzyszącego w XXI wieku. Opowiadanie Tana jest znakomitym przykładem literatury skierowanej do młodego odbiorcy pozbawionej właściwego dla niej, niebezpiecznego chwytu narracyjnego określanego jako „sentymentalna antropomorfizacja zwierząt”, która sprawia, że postrzegamy zwierzę jako bohatera tekstu kultury przez pryzmat doświadczeń i emocji człowieka. Proponuję także wykorzystanie utworu do zaaranżowania projektu edukacyjnego w szkole podstawowej zatytułowanego Nieantropomorficzny obszar pamięci o zwierzętach, opatrzonego mottem: „Jak często się zdarza, że nie dostrzegamy zwierząt, choć nieustannie dzielimy z nimi świat?”.
She-Writes. Narrating Animality in Barbara Gowdy’s The White Bone
Authors: Szatanik Zuzanna 
Published: December 2020

Niniejszy artykuł stanowi interpretację powieści kanadyjskiej autorki Barbary Gowdy z 1998 roku zatytułowanej The White Bone (Biała kość). Akcja powieści toczy się w Kenii w latach 80. XX wieku – a więc w okresie największego w historii kraju „słoniobójstwa”. Jej bohaterami są właśnie słonie, poszukujące mitycznego Bezpiecznego Miejsca. Powieść Gowdy często klasyfikowana jest jako postkolonialna, bo narracja prowadzona jest na przekór dyskursowi kolonizacji. Jednocześnie stanowi ona próbę opowiedzenia doświadczenia słoni, narrator zaś staje się tu tłumaczem i łącznikiem między zwierzętami dwóch różnych gatunków. Wyobrażenia dotyczące tego, co zwierzę myśli i czuje zawsze odbywają się kosztem antropomorfizacji tego zwierzęcia. Przedstawiona tu analiza sugeruje jednak, że antropomorfizm nie musi pociągać za sobą antropocentryzmu, a może wskazywać drogę do empatii.
Historia zawiedzionych nadziei. O zakazie chowu zwierząt na futra
Authors: Bielska-Brodziak Agnieszka , Drapalska-Grochowicz Marlena , Suska Marek 
Published: December 2020

The deputy’s draft bill amendment about the Animal Protection Act submitted to the Marshal of the Sejm in November 2017 was one of the most ambitious attempts in the Third Republic of Poland to improve the legal protection of animals. The loudest proposal in the project was to prohibit the rearing and breeding of animals for the purpose of obtaining fur from them. In the article, the Authors reflect on the reasons for the political failure of this project. In the conditions of such strong centralization of political power, was the resistance from big business really decisive? What political conditions would have to be met for such far-reaching socio-economic changes motivated by public morality and environmental protection? Why this issue aroused so many contradictory emotions in political discourse? What is more important: economic profits based on cruelty to animals or life of sentient, autonomous beings?

Published: December 2020

The analysis of scientific and educational-methodical works which cover methods and means of restoration of physical working capacity of experts of various specialties is carried out. It was stated that the official activity of police officers involves significant physical and psychological stress. It is substantiated that a high level of physical performance is one of the conditions for quality performance of functional duties and contributes to less manifestation of the effects of fatigue. The specifics of physical activity in the conditions of police service necessitate the search for tools that contribute to the rapid and full recovery of physical performance of law enforcement officers.
It is established that the quantitative manifestation of the level of physical fitness of the specialist is necessary for the assessment of the functional reserves of the organism during the organization of physical education of the population; in sports, during the selection, planning and forecasting of training loads of athletes; in adaptive physical education; to determine the motor mode of patients in clinics and rehabilitation centers; forecasting the course of diseases.
The specifics of application of pedagogical, medico-biological and psychological means of restoration of physical working capacity of policemen are characterized. It is argued that in the conditions of professional training of police officers, pedagogical tools are key in optimizing the recovery processes, as they are based on the body's natural ability to self-healing. Medico-biological and psychological means of recovery are considered additional only if the rational construction of the educational process. These tools help to increase the body's resistance to stress, accelerate the reduction of acute manifestations of general and local fatigue, effective recovery of energy resources, accelerate adaptation processes.
It is determined that restorative means should be used in accordance with the type and specifics of physical activity, taking into account the individual characteristics of the police officer. When choosing the means of recovery, a rational combination of means of general and local action becomes important.

Authors: Borуsova Yu. , Fedoriaka A. 
Published: December 2020

Competitive composition in rhythmic gymnastics is a small performance that has its own plot. However, the modern system of training in rhythmic gymnastics involves the implementation of a large amount of complex and super-complex elements, which must be mastered by very young athletes, and almost no methods of forming artistry, expressiveness, musicality. Problems related to the study of sports aesthetics are the subject of research by scientists: Viner-Usmanova I.O., M.E. Plekhanova, L.P. Morozova, V.V. Sydorova, L.A. Karpenko, Kabaieva A.M., Biletska I.H. etc..
Aim: to scientifically substantiate and develop a program of musical and rhythmic training for 6-7 years old gymnasts.
Research methods: analysis and generalization of literature sources; pedagogical observation and experiment; testing; expert evaluation of performances of 6-7 years old gymnasts; methods of mathematical statistics.
Organization of the research. The research was conducted on the basis of the sports club "Rhythmics Star" in Dnipro within the period from October, 2018 till December, 2019. The study involved two groups of 6-7 years old gymnasts: control and experimental ones of 15 girls in each. Classes in groups were held 5 times a week for 90 minutes.
Research results. After conducting the study of the initial level of musical-rhythmic training of gymnasts 6-7 years old, it was determined that the majority (70.6%) of the athletes have an average level of musical-rhythmic training. The largest difference in the results was observed in the test for coordination of movements with the meter, and the smallest one in improvisation to music. As a result of the study, the program of musical and rhythmic training for gymnasts aged 6-7 was developed and experimentally tested.
Conclusions. Comparison of indicators of musical-rhythmic preparedness of the studied control and experimental groups at the beginning and end of the pedagogical experiment showed that in the control group the indicators have not changed. Whereas in the experimental group there was a significant statistical increase in the main indicators of musical and motor preparedness.
Prospects for further research: development of the program for different age groups using other methods and means of musical-rhythmic training.
Features of psychological training of athletes for competitive activity in strength sports
Authors: Kyrychenko Taras 
Published: December 2020

The article emphasizes that the psychological preparation of athletes to participate in competitive activities is a complex process of sports improvement. Emphasis is placed on the athlete's ability to overcome unexpected obstacles, to control himself, to quickly assess the situation, make decisions and implement them. The main measures of general and special psychological training and mechanisms of psychological protection against negative actions during competitions of athletes specializing in power sports are analyzed.
It is noted that in power sports the conditions in which competitions take place differ from the conditions of training sessions. Coaches and psychologists should train athletes not only physically and tactically, but also develop their ability to withstand many pre-competitive and competitive factors that have a disorganizing effect and cause a mismatch of functions, ie reduce reliability in competitive activities. It is determined that the main components of achieving results in strength sports are: physical shape, technical and psychological training.
Preparation for the start can be carried out at low energy consumption or, conversely, at high power consumption in a state of strong excitation. These differences in intensity can be assessed as follows: from a purely subjective point of view - then talk about the degree of immersion in preparation for the activity; from an objective point of view - then it is necessary to determine the level of nervous and somatic functioning, which underlies the state of readiness of the athlete. In this context, we should consider the concept of activation, which simultaneously means a rapid increase in the activity of the central nervous system, and the resulting intensification of peripheral processes. It is indisputable that the more extreme the competition, the more intense the athlete's mechanisms of activation of mental and physiological functions, which directly affect the effectiveness of performance. Moreover, this happens in an arbitrary (or even involuntary) mode.
Before the responsible start the installation connected with expectation of the most probable result of competitions is formed. Often the installation is formed on an unconscious level, but the more complex in its structure is the future activit y, the more in the formed formation is dominated by conscious, volitional components.
Influence of power loads of a recreational orientation on the organism of student youth
Authors: Koryukaev М. , Sobolenko A. 
Published: December 2020

The article reveals the features of power loads and their impact on the body of student youth. It was found that athletics is the most popular sport among student youth. The article reveals the influence of athletics on the body of students of higher education institutions in the process of physical education. The analysis of literature sources showed a tendency to the constant deterioration of the health of young people, reducing the motivation to engage in physical education.
One of the ways to solve the problem of involvement in physical education is the free choice of forms of employment. That is, there is a need to introduce a system of attendance at a convenient time for students in the chosen specialization. The main popularity for girls is aerobics and fitness, and for boys athletic gymnastics. However, the introduction of this system leads to negative aspects of physical education classes for students in the curriculum, which affects the study of other disciplines. For example, after a physical education class, a student cannot quickly rebuild, get out of the excited state caused by emotions and physical stress of the class. Therefore, the task of physical training must be solved in the mandatory physical education classes held outside the university schedule in the afternoon.
This is a direction of bodybuilding, based on the use of strength training complexes with different weights: barbells, dumbbells, dumbbells, exercise machines. It is a system of exercises that develops strength along with endurance, agility and some other physical qualities that promote good health.
Over the last decade, studies have been conducted on the impact of recreational strength training.

Published: December 2020

The article analyzes modern approaches to the development of children of primary school age coordination. According to most scientists, the younger school-age is sensitive to the formation and improvement of coordination. Therefore, the physical education curriculum for children in grades 1-4 was analyzed for coordination tools.
А questionnaire was conducted among a physical culture specialists on during the research. The answers received by the respondents indicate the following:

the development of coordination should be given special attention during the primary school age;
in practice, specialists use many different means to develop coordination;
exercises to develop the ability to differentiate the spatial and temporal characteristics of movements are almost never used but can make classes more interesting and

As a result, some differences were found between the coordination development methodology described in the program and the survey results.
The need to improve the methods and means of developing coordination in physical education classes, in particular, paying attention to the ability to differentiate the spatial and temporal characteristics of movements, was proved.
