'The author of the article analyses the psycho-social changes which occur in individuals and groups from the moment at which they are arrested/held to the moment at which they are placed in a camp. The tool for this analysis is the definition of suffering with its various dimensions. The briefly described process of human degradation was carried out by the organisational, material, psychological and social conditions created by the USSR's repressive apparatus. These conditions gradually reduced human needs to a basic, biological level. This reduction was caused by the suffering of individuals and groups at every possible level. The article compares the adaptation of adults and children to the conditions in which they found themselves.

The paper presents a view on aims of science based on the conviction that science, being essentially a human enterprise, should be grasped philosophically as grounded in an anthropological conception. Accordingly, aims of science are viewed here as being emerged from human needs. In particular, a special, superior role played by cognitive needs, and the problem of cognitive versus utilitarian aims are considered.

This paper presents and analyses the moral-normative sources of human rights. In this article, we analyse the philosophical sources of human rights that relate to the question of why human beings should be holders of human rights, regardless of whether specific legal claims can be derived from them at the legal level. The paper addresses three main normative sources of human rights: (a) secular claims of human dignity; (b) claims based on human needs and human nature; and (c) transcendental claims. The article points out the limitations of these philosophical resources and suggests why it may be suitable to accept human rights based on a pluralistic notion of human nature.

The analysis X-rays the issues underlying the violence, arguing that it was a result of inarticulate government policies that failed to satisfy the needs of various communities in the region. Applying this conflict resolution tool should help us tp provide a way out of the problem.
