Following social-constructivist approaches in education, there has been a growing interest in employing Web 2.0 technologies in language classes. While the effectiveness of these digital teaching crafts has been corroborated in many studies (see Crook et al., 2008, for a survey), there is always doubt if they have reached a normalized state in L2 classes (Bax, 2003). This study, therefore, attempts to investigate the attitude of a group of language teachers towards the effectiveness of these emerging technologies in L2 classes. There were 53 participants in the study affiliated with universities, Ministry of Education, and language schools in Dezful. A questionnaire based on Son (2011) was designed in which Likert-scaled items were used to assess the factors of familiarity, perception, and use of online technologies in the classroom. The results suggested that most of the respondents exhibited low degrees of familiarity and use towards the technologies under investigation despite considering computerized tools as effective in the teaching-learning process. Besides, further explanations in semi-structured interview sessions indicated that most of the participants expected policy makers to incorporate supplementary Information Technology (IT) courses and facilities into teacher education and in-service programs as well as educational settings.

Educational system of the Sbor národní bezpečnosti which was in 1970s and 1980s catered for by a newly established resort Vysoká škola SNB has been so far a rather neglected topic as for research reflections. It was indeed a place where the ideology was of a privileged position. This manifested itself also as of a poor professional level of a great number of its graduates. In addition no one managed to do without strongly accentuated principles of the Marxism-Leninism. This indeed totally discredited this institution in the eye of the public. In spite of this there was a chance to acquire during one’s studies a good quality command of a whole range of specific fields of study, such as for example the criminology, of course if there were students interested in that. Also the department of penology became from the end of 1970s an im portant part of the organization structure of this school within the frame of Faculty of the Public Security which was designated mainly for members of the Sbor nápravné výchovy. Thus the plans which came to being at the time of establishing the school consummated, i.e. to found a working place focused directly upon problems of the prison service.

The article focuses on the development of Czech political economy (economics) in the 1970’s and 1980’s. It examines the texts of professional economists and analyses new theoretical paradigms they were using after the 1960’s analytical categories of market socialism had been pushed out of the official expert discussion. It identifies the 1980’s expert group, formed around the seminars at the State bank with Václav Klaus as one of the main organizers, as an important intellectual milieu where a new language of critique of the socialist economy was created. The new approaches, based largely on microeconomics, enabled their adherents to imagine alternative economic policies, different to the alternatives presented by their predecessors in the 1960’s, and prepared them for embracing even radical ideas such as privatization of state assets OPEN ACCESS 88 WISOHIM/ESHP 29 (something unheard of in the previous decades). Such development was possible also because of the limited capability of the state’s security apparatus to effectively control the experts’ professional activities.

When analyzing three theoretical frameworks of public spaces, the papers highlighted some relevant aspects of the course of the Velvet Revolution in former Czechoslovakia in 1989. The collection of empirical data from interviews with former striking students focused on the activities of the students and teachers in the Faculty of Arts of Charles University, as well as a sudden renewal of various parallel public spaces, characteristic of liberal societies. These unique forms of public action, and the emergence of horizontal public domains, occurred not only as a result of the students’ and teachers’ efforts, but also thanks to the interest of those representatives of Czech cultural and political life who, under the totalitarian regime, had been barred from practicing their professions , and in November made the decision to join the umbrella group Občanské Fórum (Civic Forum). Czech researchers, specifically historians, have collected a wealth of information regarding the course of the national students’ mobilization against the last stage of the Czechoslovak post-totalitarian regime. Nevertheless, insufficient attention has been paid to a theoretical explanation of the November protestations, and an elucidation of the genealogy and mechanisms of the alternative public realms. Dozens of interviews with former striking students have revealed that the liberation of the public spaces in the Faculty of Arts at Charles University had been achieved by unsatisfied students and later assisted by activists from diverse informal networks as well as by ordinary citizens. In November and December 1989 a substantial segment of the Czech population showed their interest in engaging with the striking students and sparked off fruitful informal debates combining generational, political, and professional perspectives.

W artykule przedstawiono wybrane aktualne problemy związane z nor-malizacją i standaryzacją w zakresie informacji i dokumentacji. Analizie poddane zostały zagadnienia warunkujące efektywność działalności normalizacyjnej i wska-zywane jako problematyczne w środowisku polskich pracowników ośrodków in-formacji: spadek intensywności prac nad wprowadzaniem norm międzynarodowych i powoływaniem norm własnych oraz wycofywanie dotychczas wykorzystywanych; kosztowność publikacji i pozyskiwania norm; problemy metodologiczne towarzyszą-ce zwłaszcza tłumaczeniu norm obcych i utrzymaniu ich odpowiedniego poziomu; konieczność zachowania semantycznej spójności w zakresie stosowanych terminów i języka branżowego; nadmierna formalizacja. Jako metodę koordynacji prac stan-daryzacyjnych w Polsce (obejmujących standardy de facto, w odróżnieniu od norm de iure) zaproponowano powołanie stowarzyszenia skupiającego osoby i instytucje zainteresowane korzystaniem ze standardów tego zakresu. Istotna będzie komple-mentarna współpraca z Komitetem 242 ds. Informacji i Dokumentacji PKN. Jedno-cześnie stowarzyszenie powinno współdziałać z organizacjami międzynarodowymi o podobnym profilu.

A proposal for a Polish model of standardizing and normalizing procedures in the field of information and documentationAbstract: The article presents selected, current problems concerning normaliza-tion and standardization in the field of information and documentation. The author analyzes issues affecting the effectiveness of normalizing procedures and indicated as problematic by the employees of Polish information centers. These include: the decrease in the intensity of introducing international norms and establishing national norms, accompanied by the withdrawal of the previous norms; the cost of publi-cation and acquisition of the norms; the methodological issues accompanying the translation of foreign-language norms and the faithfulness of translation, including the necessity to maintain semantic coherence with regard to the terms and specialist language used; excessive formalization. To coordinate the standardizing practices in Poland (which include the de facto standards, as opposed to the de iure norms), it was proposed to establish a society comprised of people and institutions interested in utilizing those standards. This society should cooperate in particular with Committee 242 on Information and Documentation at the Polish Committee for Standardization. At the same time, the society should establish cooperation with other international agencies with a similar profile.

Michel Foucault jako farmakon

PL
W artykule szukam odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy spuścizna Michela Foucaulta jest wciąż aktualna, czy stanowi już tylko szacowny zabytek humanistyki. Wpisuję myśl Foucaulta w „logikę farmakonu”, to znaczy środka, który jest zarazem lekarstwem i trucizną. W polemice z poglądami Ewy Domańskiej pokazuję, że myśl Foucaulta nadal pozostaje aktualna. Pozwala bowiem tak pytać o podmiotowość, status norm i normalizacji, by z jednej strony dostrzegać mechanizmy władzy i wiedzy, które warunkują procesy upodmiotowienia, a z drugiej zdać sprawę z autonomii i samosterowności podmiotów, w tym z wpływu, jaki podmioty mogą wywierać na społecznie funkcjonujące normy.

In my article, I will try to find an answer to a question: Is Michel Foucault’s oeuvre still up to date or has it become one of the respected but foregone relics of humanities? I would inscribe Foucault’s thought into the “logic of pharmakon,” that is, a means being, at the same time, both a poison and a cure. I will show, polemically to Ewa Domańska, that Foucault’s thought remains valid nowadays. It allows us to question the subjectivity, status of norms, and normalization in such manner that we can perceive, on the one hand, mechanisms of power and knowledge and, on the other hand, we can give an account of subjects’ autonomy and self-determination, including their impact on norms at work in society.
