The civil war in Syria lasts over two years and its progressing escalation indicates that its quick solution is far from being feasible. It causes numerous repercussions not only for Syria itself – by war damage and erosion of the social fabric, but also for the Middle East, especially due to direct involvement of regional actors in the conflict. Particularly vulnerable is the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan to which Syrian war constitutes a major security threat, probably the biggest one Jordan has to face in more than 40 years. The article presents the monarchy’s reaction towards the Syrian crisis and accordingly analyzes the security system of Jordan by indicating complexity and multidimensionality of threats inflicted by the war in Syria by applying the comprehensive security approach. Intensification of the military activity on ground, deteriorating humanitarian situation of the civilians and their massive influx into Jordan, a direct military threat and several dangers related to uncertain future of Syria and overload of Jordanian socio-economic system are indicated as key factors endangering the very existence and stability of the monarchy.

The article highlights the activities of the Centre for Political Beauty), a Berlin-based collective operating on the border of art and activism. The author maps the artistic strategies of the creators, discusses their inspirations and general assumptions of the collective. A significant part of the text is devoted to an extensive analysis of Federal Emergency Programme (2014), a public intervention whose starting point was an attempt to rewrite the historical Kindertransport rescue operation to the socio-political realities shaped by the conflict in Syria. Using the theory of reconstruction and the Michael Rothberg’s theory of multidirectional memory, the author refers to this project – and other similarly structured actions – as “performances of multidirectional memory”, which allows her to point out how the highly polarizing the public, artistic-activist campaigns of Centre for Political Beauty create scenarios of political alternatives in which different experiences of extreme violence are not prioritized.

W 2015 r. artystka wizualna Amel Alzakout uciekła z Syrii do Niemiec trasą prowadzącą przez Morze Śródziemne. Pół godziny po wypłynięciu łódka, na której znajdowało się 315 osób, zatonęła. Rozbitkowie spędzili 4 godziny w wodzie, a Alzakout, wyposażona w małą wodoszczelną kamerę (którą wcześniej zdążyła przypiąć sobie do nadgarstka), nagrała to, co działo się pod jej powierzchnią. Z nagrań tych powstał film dokumentalny zatytułowany Purpurowe morze (Purple Sea, 2020). Artykuł jest próbą uchwycenia jego wyjątkowości, również na tle innych dokumentów o podobnej tematyce, która przejawia się głównie w prezentowanym przez niego spojrzeniu. Spojrzenie to można byłoby określić mianem nieantropocentrycznego i nieeuropocentrycznego. Analizując dokument w tym kontekście autorka proponuje, by odczytywać go jako obraz będący efektem szczególnego ujęcia rzeczywistości, które nazywa ujęciem z wnętrza rzeczy.

In 2015, visual artist Amel Alzakout fled from Syria to Germany across the Mediterranean Sea. Half an hour after departure, the boat, carrying 315 people, sank. The survivors spent four hours in the water, and Alzakout, equipped with a small waterproof camera (which she had clipped to her wrist), recorded what was happening under the surface. These recordings were used to make the documentary film titled Purple Sea (2020). This article is an attempt to capture its uniqueness, also against the backdrop of other documentaries with similar themes, which manifests itself mainly in the gaze it presents. This gaze could be described as non-anthropocentric and non-Europocentric. Analysing the document in this context, the author suggests that it should be read as an image which is the effect of a particular approach to reality, which she calls an approach from the inside of things.

This text concerns main moral issues connected with the armed conflict currently underway in Syria. On the basis of an analysis of texts published in the opinion-forming American journal The New York Review of Books, the author tries to show the complexity of the conflict in terms of the problems faced by world opinion.The author concludes that we, ordinary citizens, and the leaders of the world powers, in undertaking actions (participation in military actions, taking sides, humanitarian aid) had to resolve certain dilemmas and that in doing so they took into account their subjective interests. The author thus confirms his original thesis that the contemporary world is no longer guided by international solidarity or the UN principle of a “responsibility to protect.”
