The city is a creation, which since ancient times mobilizes political and material productive forces of humans, as well as their imagination. Today, this potential is developed by various images of a technological city of the future, as the built from the ground, eco-city of Masdar. The narrative built around this city significantly exceeds the regional dimension, becoming the new universal figure of the dream about an ideal town. Simultaneously, the vision of Masdar as the "city of the future" is composed mainly of technological and economic elements, and as such, it distances itself from the imaginary dimension of the city, described by Lewis Mumford with the concept of "city-theater". Analysis of the "dramatic energy" inscribed to urban centers by the writer, will highlight possible weak points of the reflections circled around circled around the futuristic concept of Masdar.

Matthew Rampley describes a situation in East-Central Europe in which the national paradigm remains the governing framework for a variety of conceptual and pragmatic reasons that are likely to continue for many if not most researchers in small academic communities. In the nineteenth century, ‘style’, understood in the sense of non-mimetic ‘form’ present in all works of art, regardless of their culture of origin, offered the possibility of writing a universal history of world art based on ‘objective’ criteria. These grounds are disputed today for applying exclusionary European criteria to the classification of extra-European objects, in the process recontextualizing the function and value of the cultural setting in which the work was made. For similar reasons, style, form, and abstraction are also dominant considerations in assessing Modernism and one of the main reasons that the Polish art historian, Piotr Piotrowski, objected to the neglect of local and regional artists in survey texts, research programs, and exhibition venues based on a center-periphery model of influence flowing from privileged art centers elsewhere. ‘Form’ also has a prior history in theories of vision originating in ancient Greek optics. At present there is a disjunction that deserves further study between this longstanding, Western understanding of ‘form’ as part of a theory of cognition and its modern European reincarnation as a universal, visual element of design. Materialist approaches to the description and classification of works of art, coupled with an ecological model of regional interconnectivity, can mitigate the limitations of institutional art histories organized by nation-state without imposing binary structures on the material evidence. Adopting a collaborative approach to research, as Rampley advocates, could also integrate the efforts of local scholars and regional studies into a de-centered international network of scholarly exchange without imposing an overarching conceptual framework or a uniform methodology.

Matthew Rampley popisuje situaci ve středovýchodní Evropě, kde z řady koncepčních a pragmatických důvodů zůstává rozhodujícím rámcem národní paradigma. Zřejmě přetrvá i nadále pro mnoho, ne-li pro většinu badatelů z malých akademických komunit. Pojetí „stylu“ jako nemimetické „formy“ přítomné ve všech uměleckých dílech bez ohledu na kulturu, z níž pocházejí, poskytovalo v 19. století možnost sepsat univerzální dějiny světového umění založené na „objektivních“ kritériích. Tyto předpoklady jsou dnes zpochybňovány, protože při klasifikaci mimoevropských předmětů a v procesu rekontextualizace funkce a hodnoty jejich původního kulturního prostředí uplatňují evropská diskriminační kritéria. Z obdobných důvodů jsou styl, forma a abstrakce také hlavními hledisky při hodnocení modernismu a zároveň jedním z hlavních důvodů, proč polský historik umění Piotr Piotrowski vystupoval proti opomíjení lokálních a regionálních umělců v přehledových publikacích, výzkumných programech a výstavních projektech založených na modelu centra a periferie, v němž vliv vychází z privilegovaných uměleckých center v zahraničí. „Forma“ má také svou historii v teoriích vidění, které vyšly z antické řecké optiky. Další průzkum si zaslouží současný rozpor mezi zakořeněným západním pojetím „formy“ jako součásti teorie poznání a jejím znovuzrozením v moderní Evropě v podobě univerzálního vizuálního prvku designu. Materialistické přístupy k popisu a klasifikaci uměleckých děl ve spojení s ekologickým modelem regionální interkonektivity mohou zmírnit omezení, kterými trpí institucionální dějiny umění uspořádané podle národních států, aniž by na hmotné doklady uplatňovaly binární konstrukce. Kolaborativní přístup k výzkumu, který obhajuje Rampley, by také mohl integrovat práci místních badatelů a regionální výzkum do decentralizované mezinárodní sítě vědecké výměny, a to bez společného konceptuálního rámce nebo jednotné metodologie.

Objectives The aim of the article is to present the role that strategic culture plays in creating and shaping security of the future. Taking account of the purpose of this paper, the main research problem took the form of the following question: To what extent does strategic culture have an influence on shaping security of the future? Methods In order to achieve the aim of this paper and solve the main research problem, the following research methods will be applied: method of analysis, synthesis and method of conclusion.The empirical methods facilitate examination of processes with the aim of drawing conclusions. The article uses research method such as observation. Results Strategic culture is not a dogma or a camera through which we can look into the past or the future. It is a tool useful for understanding how and what the circumstances are in which a country defines appropriate measures and goals to achieve its goals regarding security. Conclusions Strategic culture can help to understand the real cultural identity of a particular entity (such as a country or an organization) and its role in the system of international relations in a better way. Therefore, it can contribute to a better understanding of security policy implemented by the entity and what is more, the analysis of strategic culture can lead to a better understanding of the opponent's strategic behaviour on the basis on how the opponent defines victory, defeat, loss or suffering.

Es deutet viel darauf hin, dass die Naturkrise der wissenschaftlich-technischen Welt in unserem Denken, nicht erst im Handeln beginnt. Weil in Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft nicht die richtige Ziele verfolgt werden, gibt es einen Mangel an Erhaltungswissen und ein Übermaß Zerstörungswissen. Zu revidieren sind aber nicht die Ergebnisse der herrschenden Wissenschaft, sondern Erkenntnisideale, unter denen es dazu kommt. Um zu erfahren, was für die Zukunft wissenswert wäre, müssten die Natur und unser Natursein ganzheitlich umfassender gedacht werden, als es in der herrschenden Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft geschieht.

Launched in the early 1960s, the global debate on ecology involves attempts both to adequately define the concept of ecology, and to effectively solve ecological problems. The former aims at a correct diagnosis of the current ecological threats to humanity, and the latter at proposing appropriate ecological strategies that would take into account mankind’s civilizational aspirations and ensure stable and sustained growth. From the beginning, the debate had palpable political undertones manifested in the development of political concepts and strategies for individual countries, regions, and continents, and also for humanity as a whole. Within the debate, the broadly conceived postulate of partnership between man and his natural environment was adopted as the basis for proposing and implementing a programme of global partnership of economy and ecology, or in other words as a political aspiration of “reconciling the inseparable demands of healthy environment and healthy economy for all the nations in the world”. The proponents of this programme thus aim to reaffirm the credibility of politics, which should be understood not only as the art of achieving and wielding power, but also as the art of safeguarding human existence in a world under threat.

The advent of society with its built in idea of progress by collective effort has led to tremendous human growth and development. Our today is more of our planned yesterday rather than by accident of nature. In spite of the vast unknown future before us, our today is largely as planned yesterday. To this extent we can say we know tomorrow taken as our planned and determined-to-achieve future. We know when to guess and make predictions of the future. We also know what we want our future to be and how to work towards realizing it. As humans we keep learning and broadening our horizons. Though today is to a large extent as we planned of it yesterday, we will still find room for improvement. This should not be taken to mean that we did not know today as planned from yesterday. It is human to want something better. So we have knowledge of our planned and determined-to-achieve future events in so far as we do not have at the moment any reason to think otherwise.

The presentation of the first and the second volume of the Encyclopedia took place on July 11th 2017 in Lvov. This unique publication offers a comprehensive information about the first scientific organisation in Ukraine. Taras Shevchenko Scientific Society was established in 1892, long before Ukrainian Academy of Sciences has been founded (1918). In 1940 Shevchenko Scientific Society was banned by the Soviet regime, although it continued to function underground. In 1947 it renew its operations abroad. It was fully reactivated on October 21st 1989. Currently Shevchenko Scientific Society has ca. 1700 members. In the past, among its members were influential foreign scientists like Albert Einstein, Aleksander Brückner, Tomáš Masaryk, Max Planck and others. On June 12th 2017 during a meeting in Kiev with the President of Shevchenko Scientific Society in America, prof. George Grabovich, were discussed the perspectives of future cooperation between Shevchenko Scientific Society and its regional offices.

From 12 to 17 September 2016 in Cuneo (Italy) took place the 9th edition of the international Summer School organized by the Centro Studi sul Pensiero Contemporaneo (CeSPeC). The event revolved around the topic of the “future”, which was analysed from different interdisciplinary perspectives and gave rise to stimulating conversation. In this introduction we provide an overview of the topic and of the reflections stemming from that event.

In the article the scientific works of Mikhail Bakhtin are considered as one text with its own single metaplot. The motive of moving forward (“going forward”) is analyzed and treated as the basis of Bakhtin’s progressive outlook, his hopes for the future and for the dialogue in the Great Time. Attention is drawn to a specific period of the Russian thinker’s intellectual life, that is associated with the departure from the ideas of solipsism. The concept of “I – others” is considered a turning point and is compared with the Copernican revolution, which is carried out in the philosophical worldview of a Russian scientist and then transferred to the studies of the works of Fyodor Dostoevsky. It reveals, in particular, the philosopher’s gradual departure from individual reality and his approach towards personalism. The future for Bakhtin is a creative, active category that determines the present. At the same time it is noted that the forward movement as expressed by the Russian thinker is ambivalent and associated with the turn to the past and the source. Along the way the concepts of memory, the curvature of progress, the idea of historical inversion, etc. are also studied. Besides, Bakhtin’s criticism of the Enlightenment idea of progress, Western rationalism and humanism are mentioned. In this regard Bakhtin’s concept of the rebirth acquires great importance, in which, under the influence of movement towards the future, the past is updated.

Sustainable development is a theoretical concept, but the possibility of implementing it depends on skills and practical solutions. One practical solution is interdisciplinary planning. The basic criterion for the success of interdisciplinary planning and improvements in its quality and efficiency is continuous expansion of knowledge related to its role, the methods, tasks and responsibilities involved and experience gained. This can be considered as a necessary step in the further evolution of interdisciplinary planning. Taking these aspects into account, it could be claimed that interdisciplinary has become a principal condition for the existence of good planning. The aim of this article is to indicate the need for new resilience planning techniques relevant to the implementation of sustainable development, which include, among other things, scenario planning. According to the authors, this concept requires a resilient approach to developing future strategies for more dynamic activities in regions attracting a high number of tourists. In the empirical part, a case study is presented. Based on an analysis of the Development Strategy for Tourism in the Wielkopolska Region until 2020, missing elements are identified from the point of view of sustainable development. Despite references to sustainable development, neither resilience planning nor scenario planning were used.

The article discusses Germany’s participation and role in the debate on the future of European integration which accelerated with the onset of the 21st century. German conceptions of the development of European integration and the EU target system as a federation caused widespread debate in Europe and subsequently led to the initiation of work on drafting a constitutional treaty. It eventually turned out to be Germany’s failure as the Constitution for Europe was abandoned after negative results of referenda in France and the Netherlands in 2005. Crisis in the eurozone was yet another factor that sparked the debate on the need of systemic and institutional changes in the EU. Germany consistently asserts its slogan mehr Europa as the sole remedy that can enable the EU to overcome the crisis and give momentum to European integration processes.

The aim of the article is to present the research results concerning, among the others, chosen identity elements, plans for life and value systems of secondary school students (general and technical secondary schools) in Dabrowa Gornicza and Tychy. It seemed interesting to learn the way young people, born in 1989 (the year when, according to Joanna Szczepkowska’s words "Communism ended in Poland") view the world around them. The sociological survey covered over 2000 graduates from Tychy and Dabrowa Gornicza, who took their Matura Examination in the spring of 2009. The survey results are important for at least a few reasons: • firstly, they are a diagnosis of personality condition of young people from Upper Silesia; • secondly, they may serve as a suggestion for ongoing discussion on education reform and further expectations in this area; • thirdly, they highlight (to some extent at least) who will shape the future of Poland and the Poles.

Universities are now faced with a huge challenge. They need to see the change in society and due to this, they must change themselves. United Nations Environment Programme might be helpful in this process. The implementation process is difficult as many people are involved. The understanding of the process and of its necessity must be shared by every member of a particular institution. The term ‘sustainable development’, even if used so commonly, may be understood differently, so further research is suggested on clarifying the term. Due to its popularity, many universities are now involved in many activities like signing a declaration of sustainable development or other initiatives. For some of those institutions, it is an apparent action that is not followed by any action later. The goals itself are very useful for higher education institutions as they play a role of a road map on the way to establishing strong and living links with the society as such, represented by stakeholders.

In his latest novel Manaraga (2017) Sorokin comments on one of the most significant problems of modern times – the results of the anticipated death of the printed book as well as the related opposition between the original and the copy. The biggest problem, as the author suggests, is not the form of the already published literary classics but the absence of new classics, which can embrace ideas capable of awaking the humankind from its zest for comfort and motivating people for constructive progress.

Seneca shows us that reading the philosophers can enable the reader to escape time. He also teaches how to possess the future achieving fame among wise and virtuous people. In Seneca’s opinion, time is our greatest wealth, however ephemeral it might be, although his tragic heroes and heroines as well as the author himself are conscious of the fact that death limits the time of life thus making it valuable. Nevertheless, his philosophy is often pessimistic, neglecting hope as a key to the future.

The aim of this article is to interpret the conditions for, and the content of, a claim for an appropriate disability pension granted due to the reduction of prospects for success in the future (referred to as the third disability pension condition under Article 444 § 2 of the Civil Code). The chosen subject of analysis is primarily justified by the relative lack of attention this disability pension has received in legal literature compared to pensions granted due to other conditions specified in Article 444 § 2 CC. The authors focus on resolving some of the interpretative doubts in the civil law related to the phrase “reduction of the prospects for success in the future”. The derivative conception of legal interpretation serves as the foundation for their analyses. The article posits that a claim for a pension due to the reduction of prospects for success in the future is available to every natural person (including a conceived child) who has suffered a bodily injury or health disorder resulting in a loss of the ability to work (in the broad sense of the term), including the ability to perform household chores and, consequently, the material or financial benefits such work would provide. According to the authors, the provision’s apparent role is to resolve interpretative doubts regarding the pecuniary benefits that the aggrieved party would likely obtain in the future. This likelihood is higher than low or small, but lower than the probability bordering on certainty (or at least very high), which is the usual requirement for lost benefits in order to be granted a disability pension. This result of the interpretation is fully justified in both functional and systemic interpretative directives, as the legislator, to a certain extent, favours the interests of the person who suffered personal injury over those of the entity responsible for the damage.

This paper delves into the intriguing phenomenon of mesoclisis in Old Occitan. Mesoclisis, the insertion of an object clitic pronoun within the verbal form rather than before or after it, is explored particularly within the context of future and conditional tenses. While mesoclisis is evidenced in both the future and conditional tenses in Old Catalan and Old Spanish, in Occitan, it is exclusively observed in the future tense. Notably, all clitics may feature in this construction, with a higher prevalence observed in the first person singular, especially with class I verbs. Furthermore, there appears to be a lexicalized association with verbs of speech, likely due to discourse-related factors. This investigation not only sheds light on the differential grammaticalization between the future and conditional tenses but also unveils an intermediate stage in their grammatical evolution, bridging the gap between Catalan and French linguistic contexts.

Self-relations of mothers raising adult children with severe intellectual disability constitute a documentation of motherhood diverging from an established role model of a mother and a woman. The narratives show that this group of women struggle with many difficult experiences and emotions related to their own existence. The aim of this paper is to analyse existential experiences of interviewed mothers in terms of reflections on the meaning of life and future, as well as questions such as ‘Why me?’, often asked by the interlocutors. I will make an attempt to identify determinants of these experiences.

The autopsy of mothers raising adult children with profound intellectual disability is a documentation of maternity that varies from the commonly accepted role model of the mother and the role of the woman. Narrative conversations show that this group of women is struggling with many difficult experiences and emotions related to their own existence. The purpose of this article is the analysis of the existential experiences of the examined mothers in the level of reflection and the questions “why me?”, the meaning of life and the future. An attempt will also be made to find determinants conditioning them.
