This paper examines the development of oil prices in the last years and its impact on energy security of the southern Europe countries. The development of oil prices in the last years has a potential impact on all economies. Indeed the impact was positive for crude oil importing economies but in the other hand, negative impact on crude oil exporting economies. According to our analysis, the impact was positive on all southern Europe economies, regardless the scale of the impact. Off course the low crude oil prices improves the affordablity of energy supply, but for the energy security of southern Europe countries should be insured by other alternative energy resources, among them natural gas and renewable energy resources.

This text aims to propose a reflection on the phenomenon of so-called touristification within the geographical area of Southern Europe concerning two points: how the processes of production of space that go under this name can be placed inside of the framework of the neo-extractive processes and how social movements against tourism may eventually resonate with the perspective of political ecology. The hypothesis is that this typology of accumulation processes responds to certain colonial rationality of capitalist exploitation within a specific area of the Global North – Southern Europe – starting from the global economic crisis of 2008, which I assume as a historical period characterized by specific forms of production of space (Lefebvre 1974) and specific social movements – the anti-tourism movements and the environmental struggles.

Storms in the European part of the Mediterranean Sea Basin are characterized in the paper. Data on storm days comes from the years 1986-2008, from fourteen stations located on the coast and on islands of the Mediterranean Sea (Gibraltar, Valencia, Palma de Majorca, Marseille, Ajaccio - Corsica, Cagliari - Sardinia, Palermo - Sicily, Naples, Luqa Malta, Thessaloniki, Athens, Souda - Crete, Rhodes Airport - Rhodes and Larnaca - Cyprus). The greatest number of storm days was noted in Corsica (870 - on the average 37,8 per year) and the least in Gibraltar (371 - 16,1). In most of the examined stations storms took place most frequently in the fall (from 19 to 46%). The smallest number of storm days was observed in winter (western and central part of the region) and in summer (eastern part). From a year-to-year analysis of storm days, it was found that their trend, at almost at all the stations, is negative. The strongest negative trend was observed in Valencia, Naples and Cagliari (-8,5 days/10 years). A growing trend, reaching 3 storm days/10 years, was only found in Cyprus.

A common feature in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) seems to be a fairly similar level of quality of democracy. The aim of the article is to analyze whether the CEE countries are in the proces of retreat from democracy and whether there are clear differences in the level of development of democracy between the old EU countries and other EU countries. The indicators of the quality of democracy in the groups of CEE, North, South and West countries were assessed. The analysis revealed, similarly to the previous research by Lithuanian political scientist Saulius Spurga, that there is no clear difference between the indicators of the CEE group and the group of Southern European countries (including Spain, Portugal, Greece). On the other hand, in the case of Scandinavian and Southern European countries, there are significant differences in the level of democracy indicators. The data clearly show a higher level of quality of democracy in the Nordic countries. This is confirmed by the results of democracy quality reports from 2006, 2008 and 2010. Based on the analysis performed, it can be concluded that the differences in the quality of democracy in the group of old EU Member States are greater than the differences between the CEE countries and the countries of Southern Europe.

Cechą wspólną w państwach Europy Środkowej i Wschodniej (EŚW) wydaje się być dość podobny poziom jakości demokracji. Celem artykułu jest przeanalizowanie, czy w państwach EŚW mamy obecne zjawisko odwrotu od demokracji oraz czy istnieją wyraźne różnice w poziomie demokracji między państwami EŚW a starymi państwami UE. Ocenie poddano wskaźniki jakości demokracji w grupach państw EŚW, Północnej, Południowej oraz Zachodniej. Analiza ujawniła, podobnie jak wcześniejsze badania litewskiego politologia Sauliusa Spurgi, iż nie ma wyraźnej różnicy między wskaźnikami grupy państw EŚW a grupą państw Europy Południowej (m.in. Hiszpanii, Portugalii, Grecji). Z kolei w przypadku państw skandynawskich i południowoeuropejskich pojawiają się istotne różnice w poziomie wskaźników demokracji. Dane wyraźnie wskazują wyższy poziom jakości demokracji w państwach skandynawskich. Potwierdzają to wyniki raportów jakości demokracji z lat 2006, 2008 oraz 2010. Na podstawie dokonanej analizy można stwierdzić, że różnice w jakości demokracji w grupie starych państw członkowskich UE są większe niż różnice pomiędzy państwami grupy EŚW a państwami Europy Południowej.
