Partnership creates a basis for relations and connections (including between states, cross-border and interregional), enabling the development of contacts and comprehensive economic and non-economic cooperation. This role is performed in its various forms and on a different basis. The article presents the partnership (including the economic one) that is being implemented between Poland and Russia, its scope, stages of development and the existing tariff, non- and par-tariff barriers in trade. The analysis shows that currently the Polish-Russian partnership is selective in nature and is subject to a high degree of uncertainty as a result of political decisions.

Economic relations between Russia and China have been growing over the years. Of particular importance in Russia-China economic relations is the gas and oil trade. Russia has the world’s largest natural resources, while China is the world’s largest energy consumer. In 2014, an agreement was reached to build a new gas pipeline and increase gas exports to China. If the planned volume of gas can be exported to China on a stable basis, Russia will be able to supplement some of the economic sanctions imposed by the West. However, there is much uncertainty as to whether China can be a stable export destination for Russia. There is a significant gap in the trade scale between Russia and China and asymmetrical dependence in the relationship between them. In addition, international pipeline projects have substantial financial and time costs, and the two countries; intentions sometimes differ. The purpose of this research is to clarify the current state of trade interdependence between Russia and China and to study whether China can be a stable economic partner for Russia. This paper consists of three main parts, with an introduction and conclusions. The first part explains an overview of trade and asymmetric interdependence between Russia and China. It then analyses the anticipated benefits and vulnerabilities of increased Russian gas exports to China. The third section investigates the uncertainties of China as a gas importer in terms of China’s dependence on Russia.

There exists a rich and colorful tradition of economic sociology, which roughly began around the turn of the twentieth century and continues till today. This tradition has generated a number of helpful concepts and ideas as well as interesting research results, which this article seek to briefly present and set in perspective. Economic sociology has peaked twice since its birth: in 1890-1920, with the founders of sociology (who were all interested in and wrote on the economy), and today, from the early 1980s and onward. A small number of important works in economic sociology - by economists as well as sociologists - was produced during the time between these two periods, from 1920 to the mid-1980s.

The purpose of this article was to introduce the possible future relations between China and the United States of America under Donald Trump’s presidency. The paper is divided into five sections: economy, real challenges, trade policy and industry, diplomacy. Each of them is introducing key issues in terms of the main topic. The secondary point of this article was to show the gravity of change after United States of America  election results in December 2016 and the impact of this event on American policy toward China. The main conclusion which arised from the article is: USA-China relations during upcoming decade are going to be eminently tensed that it was before. Trade policy, Taiwan, strategic rapprochement of the United States of America with such countries as India and Russia, as well as innovation race across many industries, will remain a point of contention. The future of Sino-US relations will probably depend mostly on the emerging administration of the 45th President of the United States of America.

The Polish-Danish diplomatic relations were officially established on 7 July 1945, when the Danish government acknowledged the Provisional Government of National Unity. The attempts to establish mutual relations started in June 1945, and the person who represented Poland was Jerzy Pański, the founder of the Association of Polish Patriots in Sweden and the representative of the information agency Polpress. Re-established Polish-Danish relations after WW II were dominated by economic contacts, because it was a difficult economic situation in both countries that made them start and continue the cooperation. In postwar Denmark there was a shortage of energy raw materials such as coal and coke, and the main trade partners of Denmark in the interwar period – Great Britain and Germany – were unable to satisfy the needs of Denmark. Danish politicians came up with an idea to obtain coal from Poland. Quite a few countries sought the delivery of coal at that time. Poland wanted to gain international recognition for its government, to reconstruct the country and to guarantee Poles deliveries of food. Agricultural and industrial articles constituted the basis of the Danish export. In the years 1945–1946 the first Polish-Danish trade contracts were made, which reestablished economic contacts, interrupted by the war. They outlined the direction of the cooperation for the next few years. The trade agreement of 29 August 1945 was a typical compensational contract – Poland exported coal and coke to Denmark, and in return Poland got butter, bacon, horses, cattle, seeds and fish. The total value of the turnover amounted to 54 million Danish crowns. The Polish-Danish trade and payment agreement of 7 October 1946 was more diversified , and the list of goods offered by both countries was more extensive. Poland saw to it that the list of products exported to Denmark was not so one-sided and based only on coal. Coal still constituted the basis of Polish export, but Denmark was interested in purchasing Polish zinc-plated sheet metal, glass and sanitary porcelain. The total value of the mutual exchange rose to 184 million Danish crowns. In the first postwar years Denmark was engaged in charity help for destroyed Poland. Danes gave food to children and the elderly, collected clothes, and what is most important they guaranteed medical help, thanks to which they won favour with Polish people.

The object of the present study is the development of economic relations between the USA and China and between the European Union and China in the first and at the beginning of the second decade of the 21st century. Attention is drawn to the growing activity of China on the international arena, as this country not only develops its trade exchange but also becomes one of the world’s major capital exporters and makes efforts to internationalize its currency. In effect we witness the emergence of a multipolar world, which marks the end of the one built on the transatlantic axis. Thus, the USA and the European Union face a qualitatively new challenge and increasingly engage in the whole area of the Pacific. It is also noted that the reasons of this Asian orientation are different. The EU seeks new possibilities of economic cooperation although both at the level of the community and the bilateral level many other various initiatives are realized. For the USA this involvement is not only a strictly political dimension but what seems far more important are the USA’s efforts to limit China’s sphere of influence built on the basis of a dynamically developing economic potential of this country. For this reason Chinese-European relations compared to Chinese-American ones seem to be more stable and do not comprise as many so deeply dividing contentious issues.

RESEARCH RESULTS: Firstly, the issue of economic relations built by China is strictly subordinated to the government policy, which is reflected in the 5-year plans, catalogues of preferred inward and outward foreign investment and the initiatives taken at international level. Secondly, the further pursuit of China to become a superpower will require profound changes, mostly related to the liberalization of investment policy, reforms of state-owned enterprises, further internationalization of RMB and demographic issues. CONCLUSIONS, INNOVATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Despite the growing opinion among scientists, politicians and journalists, China is not yet holding the leading position in the political and economic world, although it should be noted the weakening role of the United States and EU in certain regions of the world.

On October 17, 2017, President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdoğan paid an official visit to Warsaw upon the invitation of the President of the Republic of Poland Andrzej Duda. The main subject of the talks was political, economic and cultural cooperation. Issues of security were also addressed. President Erdoğan had last visited Warsaw during the NATO summit on July 8–9, 2016. During the meeting in October, the two presidents signed five bilateral agreements. This paper provides an analysis of the effects of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s visit and prospects regarding the development of friendly relations between Poland and Turkey from Ankara’s perspective. In the paper we applied the test analysis method, the historical method and the institutional and legal one. We pose a thesis that the aim of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s visit was to identify mutual relations in the economic, political and cultural dimension. According to the Turkish government, these relations are beneficial for both sides. What should be particularly important for Poland is the prospect of opening new cooperation opportunities in the economic sphere. Turkey, in turn, apart from defining the broad framework of business cooperation, is undoubtedly determined to find a partner which could be its ally in the European Union.

China’s involvement in Africa has become one of the contentious topics in the devel-opment literature. The background of the study is that china-African relations can be grouped into dual phases thus: past relations and contemporary relations. Those phases are dissimilar, as past relations are categorized by solidarity against imperial-ism, while contemporary relations are characterized by economic relations. The study used a historical approach to analyze China’s resurgence into Africa and Ethiopia, a case study is used to examine the contemporary china-African relations. Secondary data were utilized to come to sound conclusion of the study. The study mainly found out that China’s resurgence into Africa presents both negative and positive impacts for Africa and that the negatives need to be regulated in order for African countries to benefit from the relations. Role, China, Africa, development, economic relations, foreign investment Zaangażowanie Chin w Afryce stało się jednym z kontrowersyjnych tematów w literaturze rozwojowej. W tle badania jest to, że stosunki chińsko-afrykańskie mogą być pogrupowane w dwie fazy w następujący sposób: dawne stosunki i współczesne stosunki. Fazy te różnią się od siebie, ponieważ dawne stosunki są podzielone na solidarność z imperializmem, podczas gdy współczesne stosunki charakteryzują się stosunkami gospodarczymi. W badaniu wykorzystano historyczne podejście do analizy odrodzenia Chin w Afryce i Etiopii, studium przypadku jest wykorzystywane do zbadania współczesnych stosunków Chiny - Afryka. Wykorzystano dane wtórne, aby dojść do rzetelnego zakończenia badania. Badanie wykazało, że odrodzenie się Chin do Afryki ma zarówno negatywne, jak i pozytywne skutki dla Afryki, oraz że negatywy muszą być regulowane, aby kraje afrykańskie mogły korzystać z takich stosunków.

After a few decades of transformation China is becoming a major contender for the number two position in the world. Is it really possible? Will China balance the power of the United States? Today the United States supremacy is so great that it seems to be undeniable. The situation was similar at the end of the twentieth century when U.S. domination was obvious and any other reality was hard to imagine. Recently though, more and more often America’s political decisions are criticised. A few decades ago, in Beijing a new idea was developed. The essence of that idea was to transform the People’s Republic of China into a superpower. Since China was very vast and densely populated, but mostly a poor and backward country, it was a very daring vision. Years of consistent and painful reforms changed the way the world is looking at China, even though some of them were not accepted by international opinion.

The subject of the analysis are the strategic conditions of Australian-Chinese economic relations in the second decade of the 21st century. The aim of the article is to present and evaluate these relations in the perspective of Australia's strategic priorities in the field of security and development. The article discusses the Australian-Chinese trade cooperation, the attitude of the Australian government towards the key international projects of President Xi Jinping, the direct investments of Chinese enterprises in Australia and other aspects of economic cooperation between states. These issues are analyzed in the context of economic security of Australia. The main thesis of the article is the statement that in the second decade of the XXI century, China is the main economic partner for Australia and in subsequent years, this situation should not change. Australian-Chinese economic relations are developing dynamically despite the increasing concerns of the Australian government and society about the sincerity of intentions in the policy of growing in strength Middle Kingdom. Canberra strengthens its economic cooperation with China despite rising tensions between Beijing and Washington, which is its ally. Australia wants to ease tensions in the Asia-Pacific region, because the stability of the region is particularly important from the point of view of its long-term economic development. However, Australia should further develop economic cooperation also with other partners, so as not to become economically dependent on China, which policy is not fully transparent.

Przedmiotem analizy są strategiczne uwarunkowania australijsko-chińskich stosunków gospodarczych w drugiej dekadzie XXI wieku. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie i ocena tych stosunków w perspektywie strategicznych priorytetów Australii w zakresie bezpieczeństwa i rozwoju. W artykule omówiono australijsko-chińską współpracę handlową, postawę rządu Australii wobec kluczowych międzynarodowych projektów prezydenta Xi Jinpinga, inwestycje bezpośrednie chińskich przedsiębiorstw w Australii oraz inne aspekty współpracy gospodarczej między państwami. Zagadnienia te analizowane są w kontekście bezpieczeństwa ekonomicznego Australii. Główną tezą artykułu jest stwierdzenie, że w drugiej dekadzie XXI wieku Chiny są dla Australii głównym partnerem gospodarczym i w kolejnych latach nie powinno dojść do zmiany tej sytuacji. Australijsko-chińskie stosunki gospodarcze dynamicznie się rozwijają mimo wzrastających obaw rządu i społeczeństwa Australii o szczerość intencji w polityce rosnącego w siłę Państwa Środka. Canberra zacieśnia współpracę gospodarczą z Chinami również mimo narastających napięć między Pekinem a Waszyngtonem, z którym związana jest sojuszem wojskowym. Australii zależy, aby zelżały napięcia w regionie Azji i Pacyfiku, ponieważ stabilność regionu jest szczególnie ważna z punktu widzenia jej długofalowego rozwoju gospodarczego. Australia powinna jednak w większym stopniu rozwijać współpracę gospodarczą również z innymi partnerami, aby nie uzależniać się ekonomicznie od Chin, których polityka nie jest w pełni transparentna.
