"The elitist" we have to think differently today. Farther and deeper, reaching beyond the social, not referring the elitist to the social layer. The elitist - that is, the elitist, which requires our care and pleading for what is important and forgotten - would be founded on human discipline. It would be formulated outside of herd thinking, whether it is related to a larger or smaller group, leadership or not. The elitist - necessarily referred to the subject - would consist (1) in cultivating a responsible, undisciplined thought (2) while maintaining discipline in life. The source of elitism is man, not society.

The objective of this paper, taking as starting point the article of Juan Eduardo Cirlot (1916–1973) entitled “Magia y disciplina,” is to clarify one of the fundamental concepts in the worldview of this poet: his idea of discipline. With this aim, we analyze this idea, firstly in relation to the archetype of the warrior, and secondly with the magician archetype embodied by Cirlot, in the figure of Gurdjieff. In this paper the different types of relationships are described between these symbols and the concept analysed. In conclusion, we highlight the importance of Cirlot’s article in understanding the author’s work.

The article reveals the definition of the concept of «pedagogical condition», the difficulties which encountered by the researchers of this problem and their possible solutions, focusing on the specifics of determining the pedagogical conditions in the professional sphere of the security forces, which include operational and rescue service of civil protection. The author defines the general direction of scientific research in this area. A number of academic positions regarding the interpretation of the concepts of «discipline» is analyzed. The importance of discipline as psychological quality in the structure of future operational and rescue service is Substantiated. The necessity of formation of this quality in the future rescue training in core high school is proved. As evidence the statistics of Ukrainian scientific research institute of civil protection for reasons of fire in Ukraine as well as provisions of the Disciplinary regulations of civil protection of Ukraine is used, the analysis of which shows the absolute importance of discipline formed at rescuers. Discipline is generally interpreted as a conscious observance of regulations, rules and other documents that regulate the activities of operational and rescue units and ensure the preservation of life and health of their personnel. It is determined that discipline is one of the core pedagogical conditions of formation of readiness for self-preservation. A theoretical basis for ensuring the implementation of the pedagogical condition is proposed. Special attention is paid to the scientific works of V. Sukhomlinsky who has made a significant contribution to the development of pedagogy in general and addresses the issue of discipline in particular. An attempt to interpret his work in the area of training future rescuers, in particular with respect to the place and role of discipline in the formation of their readiness for self-preservation in the extreme conditions of professional activity is done. Separately, the concept of «self-discipline» is defined, which is determined by its essence as a component of a gradual transition from the concrete, expressed clear external influences promotion activities to preserve their lives and health to strengthen the state of readiness in the consciousness of a future rescuer. It is concluded that the needs of a future rescuer outlined above regulations, rules and other documents on condition of formation of the psychological quality of his discipline should be taken into consideration. At the same time it is noted that the development does not exhaust the problem of formation of readiness for self-preservation future rescuers.

The article presents such topics as: presence and absence of pupils body in Polish educational practice. Michel Foucault works and especially “biopower” and discipline concept is a theoretical background of the text. Michel Foucault didn’t analyze system of education in a wide sense; however a lot of his ideas were illustrated by educational examples (connected with mechanisms presented in military secondary schools or Jesuits’ boarding schools). This text presents different educational context. It is focused on young people (under the age of 35) memories connected with their own educational background in Poland, in non-religious public schools (3 of responders were pupils of sport-schools). The article presents results of the quantitative survey (in a group of 101 people). Survey contained open and closed questions focused on: presence of “body” as a topic of classes, attitude toward body of the pupil, mechanisms of shaping pupil’s body and connection between them and ideas of the “class order”. Article presents retrospective graduated pupils point of view on their school experiences connected with direct and indirect strategies of shaping pupils’ body in such context as space and time of education.

The discussion gathered acknowledged researchers from the region and countries of the West who for years have been engaged in the development of International Relations in the Central and Eastern Europe. The academics analyse strong and weak points of the discipline regarding heritage, organization, research methods and human resources. They deliberate what epistemological and methodological choices should be made in order to implement Western standards of learning.

The paper deals with corporeality in the school environment from a historical perspective. The body has tended to appear and disappear in the discourse and scientific disciplines and has permeated education. This permeation can be viewed traditionally within Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenological theory of the “lived body” but also in school discipline. Discipline is typically used to organise the school and is unquestionably associated with the body and corporeality. In this article, we therefore rely on Foucault’s theories. Docile bodies are typically found in schools and classrooms and are shaped by the institution so that they are easy to manage and control. In part, we demonstrate this using handwriting in schools as an example.

In 1519, Patriarch Antonio Contarini (1508–24) was trying to impose his authority over the female monasteries in Venice. He wanted to impose a stricter discipline and a more rigid lifestyle to the nuns, who were accustomed to comforts. However, he soon found major impediments from many Venetian families. The majority of nuns had aristocratic origins, and their relatives did not want them to lose their ancient privileges. Besides, monasteries symbolised the honour of the city and their families, so many noblemen reacted against any changes. After complaints began to spread, the government decided to get in touch with its ambassador in Rome, Marco Minio. Minio was asked to intercede with the pope: the Republic wanted a papal approval of Contarini’s reformation to end the dispute.In the present paper, Minio’s correspondence on this subject is analysed to trace the process developed in June–August of 1519. The Venetian ambassador tried to balance words and a decision to appease both the Republic and the Holy See. The case study is indeed an example of clever procrastination which eventually made it possible for Venice to accomplish its goal.

According to Michel Foucault cultural patterns in discursive practices differ and reflect the discursive apriori, or episteme, of a given epoch. Episteme is a notion introduced by Foucault in order to explain changing systems of thought, it indicates “the underlying orders, or ‘conditions of possibility’ which regulate the emergence of various scientific or pre-scientific forms of knowledge during specific periods of history. These ‘epistemological fields’ give rise to ‘diverse forms of empirical science’” (Foucault 2009: 168). The work titled “Discipline and Punish” is the example of such an empirical approach to history, where all the rules, scientific or pre-scientific forms of knowledge are revealed. The book written by Foucault is a systematic and specific analysis of discursive practices that work in societies of control. Foucault analyzes many such practices starting from severe punishment of the convicted Damiens in 1757, through the hierarchic supervision and normative sanction at the turn of XVIII and XIX century, and ending with the explanations of the workings of contemporary discipline societies with its oppressive rigor in schools, hospitals and prisons.In my presentation I would like to describe these different discursive formations and practices that have been in use in the past or present societies and to present them as certain cultural patterns characteristic to various cultures and societies on different levels of development.

The aim of this article is to analyse Witold Gombrowicz’s short story entitled “Pamiętnik Stefana Czarnieckiego” in the context of the convergence between the writer’s worldview and the philosophy of Michel Foucault. Nietzschean motifs inspired both authors to formulate a similar constructivist anthropology and a similar criticism of the concept of discipline. The themes of form and creating a human being by a human being – central to Gombrowicz’s writing – correspond to Foucault’s notion of the production of the subject. In such a perspective, “Pamiętnik Stefana Czarnieckiego” can be read as a record of the experience of an individual subjected to social practices of disciplinary embarrassment, aimed at producing a subject defined by nationality and heteronormativity, as well as the experience of rebellion against an imposed identity. Such a reading reveals the political stakes of the literary output by the author of Ferdydurke: expressed in the deconstruction of authoritarian forms of empowerment and in the pursuit to replace them with forms of subjectification based on irony, fluidity and distance.

Research articles have often materialized through the use of impersonal objective strategies viz. abstract rhetors, passive constructions, and nominalizations. However, intrusive or subjective strategies, such as self-mentions, appear to integrate impersonal structures. As a rhetorical strategy to explicitly portray authorial selves, self-mentions help writers to project themselves into the discourse by marketing themselves and demarcating their original contribution to the field. Here, an interdisciplinary approach was adopted to examine explicit authorial presence in a comparable corpus of 40 research articles in applied linguistics, psychology, environmental engineering, and chemistry by taking into consideration: (i) the frequency of using exclusive first person plural pronouns (we, our, us, and ours); and (ii) the writers’ rhetorical functions of pronoun use. The results showed that there are interdisciplinary variations in the frequency and use of self-reference, particularly once the soft disciplines are set against the hard ones. The differing results across the datasets reflect the susceptibility of authorial presence to the rhetorical cultures conditioned by the discipline to which the writers belong. The current results are expected to broaden our understanding of disciplinary variations towards self-mentions usage in academic writings in the four communities, particularly in the under-researched disciplines of environmental engineering and chemistry.

Thesis. This study tends to show how various social, cultural, and institutional factors work to discipline women by controlling their bodies at on one level and their thought process at another level. Concept. The everyday life of women is a space in which the operation of power is manifested through various disciplinary techniques and punitive methods. The basis of such regulations is the result of the construction of gendered bodies. Results and conclusion. The study sheds light on the ways the body is produced, shaped, and controlled by gendered social norms. The body is repeatedly gendered, and asked to conform to dominant gender norms. These factors affect women’s social and sexual behaviour and place them in a subservient position. The study reveals how while generating notions about the other ‘gender', the basic essence of ‘being human’ is often neglected. The claims for the equal space of women are to be fulfilled by formulating the possibility of a space for them which can go beyond the justified constructions of society.

One way of ensuring the effectiveness of learning of any discipline is the logical organization of the content of this discipline and the use of modern methods, forms and means of education. The study of mathematics by the students direction «Primary education» allows to raise the level of mathematical preparation of future specialists. It is known that the learning process and the control of knowledge, skills and abilities of learners are inextricably linked. Control of knowledge in mathematics in the preparation of future primary school teachers can and should combine both traditional and innovative ways of organizing it. To the latter we include testing both with separate themes of the course «Mathematics» or combine multiple topics and complete the course in general. The widespread use of computers in testing will strengthen the existing advantages of this form of control and provide additional benefits, but will also improve the efficiency of educational assessment. Through a combination of traditional and innovative forms of control the teachers systematically obtain information about the status of teacher learning and cognitive activity of students in mathematics and timely elimination of the causes that impede their effective learning. In the process of training the future teachers to testing, as well as other forms of control, has a dual purpose: on the one hand, a possibility of evaluation of educational achievements of the students, and on the other, is teaching the students the organization of control of students’ knowledge in the future professional activity. In teaching mathematics for future primary school teachers, we try to combine the multivariate techniques to organize the work of various levels of difficulty, various ways to assert the value and dignity of each member of the educational process. The article discusses the role and place of the test control in the study of mathematics for the future primary school teachers. The data of long-term foreign and domestic practices of tests in the learning process are analyzed and the positive aspects of the implementation of test technologies in the study of the organization of the future primary school teachers of the course «Mathematics» are highlighted. Sample tests are provided.

The subject of presented analysis is gender treated as a social category entangled in power relations. There are presented main social matrices of the gender-based power practices and it’s institutional and extrainstitutional, structural and individual expressions and consequences. The attention is focused at the classical conceptions of power and the perspectives of using it’s elements in the analysis of gender-based discipline practices in modern and postmodern society. There are also indicated - connected with queer culture - resistance strategies realized by using gender symbols and stereotypically perceived roles.

Background, problem and aim. The research attempts to verify the pervasiveness and intensity of the transformation that the experience of Muay Thai plays in the lives of Italian trainees. The study investigates what values are transmitted, what arises from self- awareness and from the relationship with the other, and which meanings are allocated to the fundamental concepts of sorrow/pain, limits and anger. Methods. The questionnaire, composed of 18 open ended questions, was administered in five different Italian cities to 16 subjects (13 males, 3 females), aged between 15 and 42. In the people questioned, the range of experience practising the discipline varies from 3 months to 15 years. Answers have been qualitatively analysed based on a personal interpretation created by collating both shared and contrasting elements in the sample. Results. The initial approach to the discipline is based on curiosity, whereas its continuation is encouraged by its anthropological and spiritual features, together with the level of preparation of the Master. The athlete’s physical growth is identified as a predominant aspect of the discipline with which values such as respect and self-esteem are usually associated. This element yields attention to relationships with people and a braver attitude in overcoming difficulties on a daily basis. Pain and limits are perceived as an incentive to overcome oneself without abusing the opponent, whereas hate and anger are perceived as a stop to the expression of ones own capabilities. The change arising from the practice of the discipline is unanimously considered pervasive compared to daily life. Conclusion. Muay Thai discipline enriches a person’s physicality and offers self-growth which substantially modifies the trainee’s life in all its many characteristics and experiences.

The purpose of this article is to present the multidimensional understanding of the concept of discipline and its consequences for contemporary educational practice. In the article, the understanding of the discipline was divided into two basic types. On the one hand discipline is understood negatively as an external compulsion; on the other hand positively as a socially desirable trait connected with internal organisation and self-discipline. However, it seems that those two understandings do not stand in conflict with each other and no matter how discipline is understood, it is useful in child education, depending on their age, personality traits and situation.

Celem artykułu jest ukazanie wielowymiarowości rozumienia pojęcia dyscypliny oraz konsekwencji wieloznaczności tego pojęcia dla współczesnej praktyki edukacyjnej. Na podstawie analizy literatury dotyczącej historii wychowania i edukacji oraz wybranych koncepcji wychowania wyróżniono dwa najważniejsze rozumienia dyscypliny. Dyscyplina jest z jednej strony postrzegana negatywnie, jako przymus zewnętrzny, a z drugiej pozytywnie − jako pożądana społecznie wewnętrzna cecha organizacji i porządku zwana samodyscypliną. Wydaje się jednak, że te dwa rozumienia nie stoją ze sobą w sprzeczności i niezależnie, jak rozumie się zjawisko dyscyplinowania, jest ono użyteczne w zależności od wieku, cech osobowości i sytuacji wychowanka.

The field of physical (activity) and health education, or whatever it is called in any one of the world’s countries, has undergone a “determined” but often “confused” development in the 20th century. After Sputnik went up in 1957, the field sought help from a variety of disciplines (e.g., kinesiology) and professions (e.g., management) in an attempt to truly define itself. Building on what Arthur Steinhaus (George Williams College) stated were its four “principal principles” in the early 1950s, the author asserts that some 14 “principal principles” of the field can now be affirmed. Searching for consensus, a proposed taxonomy for “developmental physical activity in exercise, sport, and physical recreation” is offered here for consideration as the field moves along in the 21st century. The author argues that the field also needs to make available to the professional practitioner a computerized inventory of generalizations that represents a distillation of the field’s scientific and scholarly literature.

The present paper is involved with the Pedagogical faculties’ students’ critique on the current educational system as it has been altered after 1981. The research was carried out utilizing both quantitative and qualitative tools. Students-voters participated in the interviews whereas active voters were difficult to be located to meet the research requirements. The dynamics of the specific political party is based on a popular profile in terms of standpoints related to economic, social and political issues. The research findings depict the students’ strong wish for a change of the curricula and a turn towards History and Religion as well as an elevation of the Greek historic events, as the History books that have been written and taught at schools over the past years contributed to the downgrading of the Greek national and cultural identity. There is also a students’ strong belief that globalization and the immigrants’ presence in Greece have functioned in a negative way against the Greek ideal. Therefore, an overall change of the educational content could open the path towards the reconstruction of the moral values and the Greek national identity.

The 21st century can be called a "century of reforms" in the Polish system of higher education and science. Each successive ruling party was looking for an opportunity to revise the way the Polish Academia was organized. Those reforms were aimed at changing the system of evaluation of higher education institutions (and the associated system of granting public subsidies thereto). But also they were targeting the list of scientific disciplines recognized and subsidized by the government. That was possible thanks to the fact that each piece of legislation on funding the Polish system of higher education was imparting power on the Minister of Higher Education to issue an executive act. Such discretionary decisions allow for influencing the way institutional science is organized in Poland. It is also a reason why in Poland "scientific lobbying" has arisen and various research coteries have been trying to promote their subfields to the rank of "discipline" by influencing the Ministry. This paper is an attempt at summing up the 21st-century debate over the shape and legal foundations of the institutional dimension of the realm of political science. It is also an attempt to provide evidence that in Poland it is not theory that is influencing the decisions of recognizing new disciplines that are arising from the field of political science, but rather the political (and lobbying) practice as well as discretionary decisions of the Ministry are shaping the development of theory.

This article examines the issue of the ill body from two perspectives which are at the same time two parts of this paper. The first one which follows Michel Foucault, concerns production of the specific type of the subject, namely the patient and includes a scrutiny of the hospital as a disciplinary apparatus. The goal of the second part is to analyse illness as a counter-apparatus which undermines any given order. I argue that power, violence, the process of subjectification and a way of eluding their moulding force are reflected in the issue of the ill body. For the ill body simultaneously is extremely vulnerable (as something that needs to be fixed) and invulnerable (because of the rebellious ‘nature’ of illness) to the apparatus investments.
