The following article focuses on the transformation of the universities, which is currently undergoing in Poland due to the market pressure and introducing the ethos of work and management originating in the ‘audit culture’. The authors exposes the consequences of employing the regime of constant evaluation procedures and attempts of embedding the market competition logic into the academic practices. The conclusions are based on partial analysis of the Polish debate on commercialization of the higher education, the author’s “participant observation’ in the academic milieu and on relevant experiences from the countries where the commercialization of higher education is much more developed. At the end, the author advocates for more thorough research on the local context, practices and meanings, which were produced at the Polish universities under the current reforms of the higher education.

This essay deals with the Italian University reform, analysing its origins and main educational and managerial aspects, including the different positions on the identity and the role of this institution and of the diverse routes of higher education. The reform was passed while in the Old Continent an ancient ‘idea’ of Europe as a confederation of states activating an effective integration and unity process was taking shape, one aimed at ‘nationalizing’ and bringing together in the best possible way peoples that had shared for centuries religions, anthropological values, economic forms, legal codes, political institutions, and scientific knowledge. Moving from these premises, University is investigated not only as a crucial training place where research is carried out in synergy with didactics, but also as the driving force behind the most advanced scientific development, affluence, technological advancement, innovation, ideas and talents.

Taken in period of Polish socio-political system transformation - i.e. after 1989 - restructuring actions against coal mining led to profound changes in life of the miners and their families, thus determining their status and development prospects. It seems that impact analysis of actions taken may affect a better understanding of role that may in the future fulfill the program for creation of the Silesian Centre for Close Mining Changes Monitoring (- further CMZO). This idea has been subordinated contained in this article reflection.

The article offers a critical insight into conceptions and ideas guiding the process of reforming a Polish world of science, which was initiated in 2010. It concentrates not as much on a process understood as an institutional change, as on hopes and expectations underpinning the reforms, framing its inner logic. The article points to the decisive role of the influence which a dogmatist approach – rooted in a neoliberal doctrine imposing a narrow understanding of a social harmony asresulting from a successful operation of free market machinery – had on a whole undertaking, giving the reform its sense and meaning. It also brings to focus a conflict between an academic tradition exposing the symbolism of truth and the neoliberal system of values promoting notions of productivity and efficiency.

For realization plans of research five hypotheses were selected and verified. The results are described below. 1. Ideological differences of governments (left, right, centre) coexist with different indicators of economy. 2. Two pro-growth strategies; a) stimulation via budget and little pressure on reforms or b) high pressure on reforms, have statistical support, but more efficient is the second one. 3. The larger political power of the government (obtained votes) and the more stable is the government, the greater advancement of reforms and a relatively higher economic growth. 4. The higher the political power of centre and right parties, (participation in government weighted by number of days), the more advanced reforms and relatively higher economic growth. 5. Left parties are slightly less willing to quick implementation of reforms than right and centre parties.

Secret services inherited from the former system were not in any way adjusted to the conditions of a free, open society or to the created standards of a democratic state of law. The new authorities of the democratic country faced the problem of building their own secret services subordinated to the rules of a sovereign state. It was necessary to choose the way to create them as well as establish their organizational shape, competences and tasks. The idea of a revolution in the services was given up and the intermediate variant was chosen. It was radical in its content but gentle in form. The model shaped in 1990 was based on dividing secret services into civil and military ones. The former were subordinated to the Minister of the Interior, then to the Prime Minister, whereas the latter – to the Minister of National Defense. The Office for State Protection (UOP) was the service performing the tasks of civil intelligence and counterintelligence. With time, it was granted the competences from the field of combating organized crime aimed at the economic basis of the state. UOP was the leading service in the system of institutions of the state’s security. The Military Information Services (WSI) were the old internal services of the armed forces modified only in a slight degree. In the second stage of the reform of 2002, UOP was divided into two separate agencies. Internal Security Agency took over the majority of competences and tasks of UOP. The Foreign Intelligence Agency is responsible for foreign intelligence. Liquidation of WSI realized in 2006 in a rapid manner introduced chaos and disorganization in military services, which till today feel the consequences of the operation performed then. According to the declarations of the government, new reforms await secret services in 2013.

The current transformation of various areas of life in Poland contribute to many changes in the educational system of young children. Recently proposed and implemented changes in early school education concern the school system and are mainly related to the modification of the structure, organization, and functioning of schools. However, at the basis of education, there lie primarily defined educational paradigms. Awareness of them affects not only the way of thinking of teachers about the nature of education, the role of a teacher and a student in the educational process, but most of all are reflected in the school practice. Hence, in the context of the currently ongoing reform of early school education, the subject of research has focused on educational ideologies that determine the way of thinking of teachers about early school education and the role of its participants. The analysis presented in the following article has been based on empirical data based on individual surveys, which were conducted with early school education teachers during pedagogical practices completed by female students of postgraduate studies in early school education.

Obecne przeobrażenia różnych dziedzin życia w Polsce przyczyniają się do wielu zmian w systemie edukacji małego dziecka. Proponowane i wprowadzane w ostatnim czasie zmiany w edukacji wczesnoszkolnej dotyczą ustroju szkolnego i związane są głównie z modyfikacją struktury, organizacji i funkcjonowania szkół. U podstaw edukacji leżą jednak przede wszystkim określone paradygmaty edukacyjne. Ich świadomość wpływa nie tylko na sposób myślenia nauczycieli o istocie edukacji, roli nauczyciela i ucznia w procesie kształcenia, ale przede wszystkim znajduje swoje odzwierciedlenie w praktyce szkolnej. Stąd, w kontekście zachodzących aktualnie reform systemu edukacji wczesnoszkolnej, przedmiotem badań uczyniono ideologie edukacyjne determinujące sposób myślenia nauczycieli o edukacji wczesnoszkolnej i roli jej uczestników. Podstawą analizy uczyniono dane empiryczne zgromadzone na podstawie wywiadów indywidualnych, które przeprowadzone zostały w trakcie odbywanych praktyk pedagogicznych przez słuchaczki studiów podyplomowych z nauczycielami edukacji wczesnoszkolnej.
