John Paul II in his writings repeatedly pointed to the problems that affect both individual man and entire nations. The twentieth anniversary of Pope Paul VIʼs encyclical Populorum Progressio has become an opportunity for John Paul II to document the predicament of his predecessor to analyze the pains of the modern world. One of the most serious problems of world-wide perceived by the pope in the mid-eighties of the twentieth century in the encyclical Sollicitudo rei socialis was the so- Social question. The number of countries on the way of development far exceeded the number of developed countries, economic and cultural gap between the south and north so called. The south was still deepening. The key to resolving this global crisis is, according to John Paul II, the interpersonal and international solidarity. According to the Pope, only through mutual multidimensional and multifaceted assistance and cooper-ation is the integral development of every individual and the development of entire nations and states.

Karol Libelt was Wielkopolaninen, a meritorious educational and social activist of Wielkopolska, a participant of the November Uprising in 1830, a member of the insurgent National Government, a political convict from 1847. He belonged to the most prominent representatives of the philosophy of the Polish Romanticism. He co-created the so-called Polish national philosophy. He criticized Hegel’s thought. In place of the extreme philosophy of reason, he proposed a new “Slavic philosophy” which was to have the character of national philosophy. Poland played a significant role in it. Libeltʼs best-known sketch was the dissertation “On the Love of the Homeland”. In his analysis of the homeland category, he pointed to its most important component features: objective (material) factors, i.e. land, common space and the effects of common human activities; anthropological factors conditioning social bond based on the principle of kinship; cultural factors in the form of language, literacy, customs, beliefs and common history; existing political and social institutions; subjective factors found in people's psychological attitudes, social emotions, social sensitivity, etc. Libelt considered his philosophy to be an elaborate and philosophical synthesis of views that formed the output of philosophers and poets of the Polish Romantic era.

The purpose of the article was to try to answer the question, what truth and logic is discovered? The answer came by comparing the claims made by Des-cartes and the main representatives of the Lviv-Warsaw School. The author of the article contrasting the views of the French thinker with the views of Polish logicians, with Kazimierz Ajdukiewicz at the head, turns to the proposal of the latter. According to Ajdukiewicz, discovered by law logic, as well as the laws discovered by representatives of empirical sciences, there are some objective relations that take place on the side of reality. Knowing these important and universal properties and laws, man increas-ingly and better understands the world. The conclusion of the article is the the-sis that there is close correspondence between ontology and logic, as expressed by the first principles of the law of being, which are also the first principles of the laws of thought. Responding to the question of the role of logic in the pro-cess of learning the truth, the author confesses to those authors who argue that logic is a science that works on the material provided by the ontology, looking for relationships between objects of the real world.

The effect of rejecting the correspondence concept of truth, adopted in classical metaphysics, is the crisis of modern culture, which is ultimately the crisis of man himself. An important element of it is the belief in the gap between faith and reason. John Paul II claims that stopping this crisis can only happen through the spiritual revival of man, whose condition and foundation is the rediscovery of the universal truth about himself and his ultimate destiny. The Pope is convinced that in the context of contemporary liberal and technical-consumer cultural trends, only thanks to objective truth can a man preserve his identity and the unity of his culture.

W czasach, gdy demokracja jest na ustach polityków, dziennikarzy, filozofów i zwy-kłych obywateli, rodzi się pytanie: skąd czerpać jej najlepsze wzorce? Najlepsze, czyli takie, które staną się dla niej zarówno solidnym fundamentem, który uchroni ją przed rozchwianiem i które zarazem wyznaczą dla niej pewny horyzont, ku któremu należy dążyć. Niniejszy artykuł wyrasta z przekonania, że szukając owych wzorców, należy odwołać się do tych wartości i ideałów, które zrodziły się w starożytnej Helladzie w czasach Sokratesa, Platona i Arystotelesa, i które wraz z Ewangelią i prawem rzymskim stworzyły cywilizację europejską, która stała się kolebką współczesnej demokracji. Pierwszym krokiem na drodze do ukazania łacińskich korzeni demokracji będzie wyjaśnienie znaczenia samego słowa ,,cywilizacja”, odnośnie do którego istnieje wiele nieporozumień. Pomocne okażą się w tym miejscu analizy dwóch polskich myślicieli – Feliksa Konecznego (zm. 1949 r.) oraz Józefa M. Bocheńskiego (zm. 1995 r.). Następnie ukazana zostanie specyfika cywilizacji europejskiej, zwanej również łacińską, chrześcijańską czy też łacińsko-chrześcijańską. Rozważania zawarte w niniejszym artykule zmierzać będą do ukazania, że największym osiągnięciem tej cywilizacji było wypracowanie pojęcia ,,osoby”, bez którego w ogóle nie można mówić o demokracji.

At a time when democracy is on the lips of politicians, journalists, philosophers and ordinary citizens, arises the question: Where to get the best models? The best model means that it will be a solid foundation that will protect democracy against destabilization, and which at the same time designate sure horizon toward which one should aim. This article stems from the conviction that the search for these patterns should refer to those values and ideals that were born in the ancient Hellas in the times of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, and which together with the Gospel and Roman law and created a European civilization that became the cradle of contemporary democracy. The first step on the road to show the Latin roots of democracy will be to explain the meaning of the word “civilization” about it which there are many misconceptions. The analysis of two Polish thinkers, Feliks Koneczny (d. 1949) and Józef M. Bocheński (d. 1995), will prove helpful here. Next, the specificity of European civilization, also known as Latin, Christian, or Latin-Christian, will be shown. The considerations contained in this article will aim to show that the greatest achievement of this civilization was to develop the concept of "person" without which one can not speak of democracy at all.
