Taking into account the variety of potential visions of sexuality, modern ethical standards, the dissimilarity of vital women and man ethos, and the transformation of modern morality, in spite of a distaste for the religious environment, the right to marriage should be connected with the right the dissolution of a marriage. The postulated equality means equality of this law for both woman and man, which was historically connected with different entitlements.

This article is an attempt to show the problem of the violation of human rights in Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, especially women and children. Human rights are moral principles or norms that describe certain standards of behavior. It includes the rights to live, freedom from slavery and torture, and freedom of opinion and expression. In the Democratic Peoples` Republic of Korea (DPRK) those rights are non-existent. In that country the regime uses capital punishment as a tool of oppression. What is more labor camps exist there. The situation of women and children in Korea is very hard. Women experience discrimination, rapes and famine. Furthermore, since 2015 military service has been obligatory for them and they spend from 5 to 7 years there in military service. Moreover, domestic violence is prevalent. They have not got access to social support. The legal system is appalling as DPRK lowered the penalties for some forms of rape, includ-ing the rape of children, rape by work supervisor and repeated rape. Children are used for hard labor. Disabled children are killed or sent to a special place called “Hospital 83” to which disabled persons are being sent for the medical investigation into chemical and biological weapons.

The OSCE mission in Sarajevo started soon after the Dayton Accords had been signed. Apart from monitoring of the implementation of this peace agreement, one of the main areas of OSCE's activity has been promoting and helping to build the rule of law in Bosnia and Herzegovina. A special task has been to create state mechanisms for monitoring the observance of basic human rights in this ethnically and socially divided country. This paper will therefore analyse the activity of the OSCE mission in Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) in the above mentioned area, with particular emphasis placed on the situation of the Roma population in this country. It will also be an attempt to assess B&H's achievements so far as well as the main set-backs and obstacles in the normalisation process and to approaching international standards.

Liechtenstein is undoubtedly one of the countries where respect for human rights is at a high level. The reasons for this should be sought first of all in the decision of this micro-state to join the most important international organizations emphasizing the pro-tection of human rights (UN, Council of Europe) as well as internal regulations that are of an increasingly higher standard. This does not mean that there are no problems or puzzling situations for researchers of the political affairs in this country in this respect. These include undoubtedly the relatively late granting of political rights to women and the actual lack of political rights of persons without the citizenship of the Principality, accounting for 1/3 of the country's population.

The prevention of the abuse of rights is a legal instrument which aims at the protection of the spirit of law associated with the basic principles of a democratic system. Nevertheless its application sometimes leads to a decreasing effectiveness of the protection of human rights, and sometimes turns against democracy itself and the rule of law. The objective of this analysis is to consider the possibility of the optimalization of using application of such provision from the angle of the effective protection of individuals’ rights. The article has been prepared on the basis of dogmatic methodology with elements of historical analysis. The results of the analysis can contribute to the elaboration of a systemic approach towards the prevention of rights abuse with benefits for the protection of individual rights as well as foreseeability of law.

This article is aimed at expanding the reader’s knowledge of urban issues, especially the concept of the right to the city, as well as raising their civic awareness. In particular, it intends to present the origin of the above term and various proposals for its understanding. Moreover, the work is concerned with an attempt to determine the content of the right to the city by establishing its essential features. Another issue raised by the author is a reflection on whether it is valid to distinguish the right to the city and perceive it as belonging within the sphere of human rights. The entire analysis takes into account selected legislation related to the discussed subject matter. In addition, the theoretical considerations have been accompanied with examples of how the right to the city is implemented in practice. The final part of the paper contains a summary of the author’s considerations and her addition to the debate over the essence of the right to the city as a concept.

This paper describes the principles and characteristics of the human rights-based approach (HRBA) in German development cooperation. In 2011 the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) adopted a binding Human Rights Strategy, which reaffirmed human rights as one of the guiding principles in all sectors and priority areas of German development policy such as education, health care or agricultural development. The paper briefly presents how human rights can be protect-ed through political dialogue with partner countries and the use of conditionality when providing German budget support. It presents the key issues of implementing human rights in German development cooperation policy.

The main subject of the article is the ideology of the European universalism, which is interpreted by the author as the ideology of democracy and human rights. In the first part of the paper the inner function of this ideology is interpreted. This function consists on the legitimisation of western socio-political system. According to the author this ideology directly legitimizes western socio-political system, and only indirectly capitalism as an economical system which coexists with the democratic state. In the second part of the paper the external function of the European universalism – that is the legitimization of the western imperialism. The author of the article differentiates the inner form of the ideology (that is the ideas embedded in the consciousness/subconsciousness of people), the political doctrine of the ideology (that is what is spoken by the politicians) and its academic discourse.

In the issues of terrorist threats, which constitute one of the most serious threats to national security, numerous state organs and institutions are involved, and the effectiveness in combating terrorism depends to a large extent on the coordination of their activities. Increasingthe competence of state bodies in this area can notlead to disproportionate restrictions in exercising freedoms and rights by citizens. The Anti- Terrorism Act enacted by the Parliament in June 2016 does not provide forsuch guarantees. The article analyses the adopted solutions and indicates regulations that raise the greatest doubts.

W kwestii zagrożeń terrorystycznych, stanowiących jedno z najpoważniejszych zagrożeń dla bezpieczeństwa narodowego, włączone są liczne organy i instytucje państwowe, a skuteczność w zwalczaniu terroryzmu w dużej mierze zależy od koordynacji ich działalności. Zwiększenie kompetencji organów państwowych w tym obszarze nie może prowadzić do nieproporcjonalnych ograniczeń w korzystaniu z wolności i praw przez obywateli. Ustawa antyterrorystyczna uchwalona przez parlament w czerwcu 2016 r. nie przewiduje takich gwarancji. Artykuł analizuje przyjęte rozwiązania i wskazuje regulacje wywołujące największe wątpliwości.

Problem mieszkaniowego zasobu gminy stanowi istotny element działań polskiego Rzecznika Praw Obywatelskich. Istotność ta wynika z art. 75 Konstytucji, który stanowi, że władze publiczne prowadzą politykę sprzyjającą zaspokojeniu potrzeb mieszkaniowych obywateli, w szczególności przeciwdziałają bezdomności, wspierają rozwój budownictwa socjalnego oraz popierają działania obywateli zmierzające do uzyskania własnego mieszkania. W artykule przedstawiono kilka spraw dotyczących mieszkaniowego zasobu gminy, jakie prowadził Rzecznik Praw Obywatelskich oraz polityki mieszkaniowej gminy. Artykuł pokazuje, że taka polityka w Polsce nie jest prawidłowo prowadzona i powinna być zmieniona poprzez zastosowanie obowiązujących środków prawnych.

By pointing to the two meanings of the term “constitutionalism”, the author attempts to derive axiological context from “political morality” which precedes the content of the basic law. He concludes that it can only be derived from this content determined, e.g., in specifi c historical, social, political circumstances. Presenting the two meanings of the term “homeland”, he also draws attention to the pressure intrinsic to the Constitution of the Republic of Poland in 1997, in which reference to a politically conceived homeland was associated with a dominant picture of the collectivity of individuals supposed to create a “political nation.” This causes disputes over the content of the common good, sometimes associated with the creation of conditions for the development of every citizen and, some other time, by conditioning it on the lawfulness of the activities of public authorities.

Dobrym zwyczajem jest uzasadnienie sensu naukowego przygotowywanych projektów badawczych, odtworzenie celów, motywacji autorów. Projekt pt.: Wpływ i władza w systemie demokratycznym powstał w określonych warunkach, przestrzeni społeczno-ekonomiczno-politycznej. Ostatnie lata przyniosły lub restaurowały szereg pytań badawczych dla politologów, zajmujących się zarówno teorią jak i praktyką funkcjonowania systemów demokracji liberalnej. Coraz bardziej natarczywa staje się teza, iż w naszym kontekście cywilizacyjnym demokracja liberalna znajduje się „na zakręcie” (oczywiście już nie pierwszym). Coraz liczniejsza staje się grupa państw, które kwestionują aksjologiczne, normatywne i instytucjonalne podstawy demokracji liberalnej. Narastają liczne pęknięcia i sprzeczności targające społecznościami – z etykiety – demokratycznymi, obywatelskimi, liberalnymi. Potęgują się napięcia w ramach struktury własnościowej, dystrybucji i redystrybucji dóbr, zarówno wewnątrzsystemowe jak i międzyregionalne (vide: kapitalizm peryferyjny). Narasta nieufność do polityki, polityków, władzy, elit, mediów oraz samej demokracji, jako systemu (vide: demokracja liberalna, jako wróg). Stąd pierwsza część poniższych artykułów stawia pytania: o charakter, stan, kondycję współczesnych demokracji liberalnych.
