Austrian School cames into existence in the process of the marginalistic revolution in the 70-ties of 19th century. Due to the theoretical and methodological heritage of L. E. von Mises numerous unique ideas and theories have been dynamically developed. Austrian School is based on the theory of marginal utility, uses methodological individualism and subjectivism, rejects scientismus and excessive using of the mathematical methods in economics. Ludwig von Mises perceives the economics as an integral part of the human behaviour science - praxeology. Mises significantly developed the following ideas: the concept of economic liberalism, the economic calculations problem, the theory of money developed on the basis of the theory of the marginal utility and the monetary policy of business cycle.

In this article the author’s suggestion is to apply the semantic concept of procedure also to the explication of the concept of method in general: A method is a procedure consisting of sub-procedures. Applying methods can lead not only to achieving knowledge, but also to creating pieces of work such as plans, projects programs etc. Thus, we get on to the theme of praxeology as a rational theory of action. The stimuli of action are directives which instead of status quo or its transformation have a direct objective, namely action. The role of method as a procedure in integrating the elementary implementing steps of the latter is underlined, i.e. sub-procedures or instructions. Thus the author casts doubt upon conceiving of method as merely a sequence of steps. In conclusion he offers the definitions of analytical and empirical methods.

The article highlights those aspects of logistics which determine that logistics should be treated as an area of practical knowledge, deeply settled in theoretical foundations of other disciplines and scientific theories. The article contains original author's concept of understanding the matter of logistics, in close connection with its aims and service, as well as integration functions. Logistics integrates interdisciplinary approach to economic processes — from praxeological aspects of good work and rules of economizing activities, to the implementation of information technologies in virtual economic organizations—favourable for better use of resources and cost reductions. It constitutes the main prerequisite of constructing contemporary economic strategies of total supply chains.

Until now, the artistic practices of a duo named KwieKulik, founded between 1971-1987 by Przemysław Kwiek and Zofia Kulik, were placed outside of conceptual art. I am not presenting here a simple thesis that KwieKulik were conceptual artists, but I attempt to formulate an introductory question about the complex relationship in which they situated themselves in response to conceptualism. In one of the interviews, the artists claimed that they could never be ‘pure conceptual artists’. I wonder, however, if the activity of the duo may be framed in a category of some ‘impure conceptualism’ whose important aspect is to be found in exposing the conditions of life and work in the People's Republic of Poland . To achieve this one needs to investigate thoroughly the artists stance towards the hegemonic term of ‘conceptualism’ whilst highlighting all of their actions that had any conceptual feature and to define a specific, individual form which appeared in the network of relationships with other elements of artistic practice. In my text I explain how one should understand ‘conceptualism’ as ‘a hegemonic term’ that organises and imposes itself onto an agonistic field of innovative art practices — not only in the West, but also in Poland. In this context, undertaking the question of “KwieKulik and conceptualism” opens a new perspective for a counter-hegemonic reinterpretation of conceptualism in the People's Republic of Poland. Without rejecting the term ‘conceptualism’, one needs to look at the questions related to it through the prism of an individual case of the KwieKulik duo. It should also allow the practices of both artists to make an imprint on ‘conceptualism’. In the last part of my text, I limit myself to a series of ‘contributive’ notes which may be treated as orientation points in an appropriate analysis of the conceptual aspects of the art of KwieKulik.
