Te paper focuses on the identity of a contemporary Polish nationalist movement. It is based on biographical narrative interviews which were carried out among members of three Polish nationalist organizations: the All Youth Polish, the National Rebirth of Poland and the National Radical Camp. Participants of nationalist movements mobilize themselves and protest against increasing diversity. Te contemporary Polish nationalism can be understood as the particular kind of cultural resistance to globalization, cultural diversifcation, lef- -wing activities. Te homosexuals and feminists seem to be their main opponents. Nationalists defne themselves as the defenders of tradition, history and Polish values and hence they attempt to make the public sphere homogeneous. According to their statements, the public sphere should be reserved for Polish, Catholic values and norms. As I conclude, the nationalist resistance can be perceived as the result of anxiety for the status of national identity and longing for universal values or constant points of reference.

This paper explores how women's roles and participation in resistance to Czechoslovak communism from 1968 to the Velvet Revolution serve as a base for Czech feminist thought. By examining three generations of participants through a gendered, Beauvoirian lens, the emergence of feminism can be easily charted through changing perceived gender roles and increased attention to gender issues. After the events of the Prague Spring, women from different groups of the Czechoslovak underground risked their own safety to exercise free speech and expression. Women's struggles for greater liberties were framed by traditional gender barriers, supposed communist equality, and Western influence. To understand the experiences of female dissidents as a base for Czech feminist thought, one must examine the nature and progression of various underground communities and women's roles within them. Since 1968, an increased emphasis on women's freedoms and liberties has helped create a unique, local sense of femininity and feminism.

Intensive apple protection against scab carries with the risk of resistance of fungus Venturia inaequalis on fungicides. Literature data indicates that high risk of resistance occurrence create substances belonging to benzimidazoles, dodine, strobilurins and anilino-pyrimidines. Currently, there are 62 fungicides (24 active substances) placed on the Polish market, applied in the protection of apple against scab. Active substances represent 6 different modes of action. There are no products containing benzimidazoles among currently available fungicides to control scab. Diversity of fungicides as we take into account mode of action allow to rotation of preparations and resistance prevention by this way. In recent years products containing new active substance with different mode of action than previously used were registered, which additionally improves the possibility of rotation of preparations. The presence of two active substances with various modes of action in a few fungicides is an additional, important element of resistance prevention strategy. According to the obligation of the integrated plant protection observance of the rules of anti-resistance strategy is very important.

The plant protection in allotments and home gardens is not without significance. The amateurs willingly use the possibilities of chemical protection against harmful organisms as evidenced by data concerning the consumption of plant protection products by unprofessional users. Currently, 69 preparations are available for the amateurs of which 23 products are used in the protection of nightshade plants including 14 fungicides, 6 insecticides and 3 herbicides. The number of registered preparations is small. The possibilities of protection against many significant pests are limited and in many cases there is no possibility of chemical protection. Lack or very limited possibilities of active substances rotations contribute to the development of resistance. Harmful organisms which are resistant in allotments or home gardens may be transmitted and contribute to the further development of resistance and consequently may cause economic losses in commercial crops.

The crops used as a source of renewable energy, like all the other crops can be damaged by harmful organisms and diseases and may require chemical protection. The analysis of the register of plant protection products placed on the Polish market on 21.07.2014 shows significant differences in their availability. For crops grown in Poland on large areas, such as oilseed rape and maize, numerous products are available and the chemical protection possibilities are in principle sufficient. For minor crops, especially those grown mainly or solely as energetic crops, the protection possibilities are either very limited or non-existent.

The biographical study is focused mainly on the war and post-war fate of the German AntiFascist from the Moravian borderland, Karl Schmid (born 1904), mainly from the end of the 1930’s until the end of 1940’s. This native of Sternberk was affected in particular by the events of the war period: Over this period, Schmid changed his uniform several times, when passing from the international brigades in Spain to the French Foreign Legion and subsequently to the German captivity. His next journey lead through the Gestapo prisons to the Auschwitz concentration camp, where he was recruited to Waffen-SS (SS-Sturmbrigade Dirlewanger); however, before the War ended, he managed to run over to the Partisans in the Slovak territory. In his liberated homeland, he served for a while as the local militia member in Šternberk, later being investigated and judged at the Extraordinary People’s Court in Olomouc.

The aim of the article is an attempt of an insight into the culture of a French school and factors that shape it. In this background, a narrower issue of an oppressive effect of school norms that concern pupils’ appearance is discussed. The case of French Muslim girls is an interesting departure point for the critical analysis of oppressive actions of Polish teachers. The article presents the background of social tensions caused by ‘the Islamic shawl’ and the question of changing the media image of French Muslims. The crucial conclusion of the presented analyses are different social competences (resistance against power), which are formed in subjects that undergo oppressive school norms in Poland and France.

Czechoslovak emigration in Yugoslavia in 1939 – 1941 is a complex topic exceeding to several other issues. Operation of this Balkan emigration route was mostly influenced by the Belgrade headquarters of Czechoslovak resistance movement, which was responsible for care for emigrants and organization of transports. Total number of Czechoslovak citizens emigrated by the organized transports via Yugoslavia in this period reaches to 2000. The situation in Belgrade headquarters was marked by several conflicts inside the resistance movement, both, between Hodža and Beneš fraction and between military and civil part of resistance. As we mentioned in the case of Dr. Rudinský, the Belgrade headquarters had indirect influence on the development of situation in Western European resistance movement by a different approach to arrangement of the necessary travel documents – while Beneš supporters usually reached Western Europe in relatively short time, Some Hodža supporters did not reached it at all. The cooperation of the local Czech and Slovak minority and its institutions, especially the “Czechoslovak union in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia”, was important for the activity of the resistance headquarters. Ján Bulík was the most involved person in the resistance activities among the Czechoslovak diaspora, being an important representative of Vojvodina Slovaks in the thirties of the 20th century. Special attention is to be paid to the emigration of Czechoslovak Jews, which was carried out by both, individual and mass transports. The most influential factor of the operation of the resistance headquarters was the position of Yugoslavian state authorities, which was changing in time. The authorities were tolerant, even hidden helpful in the early phase, but they were forced to harder actions after the fall of France, which led to a strong diminution of the resistance activity and departure of many resistance members and emigrants. In the late phase, the Czechoslovak emigration community in Yugoslavia consisted mostly of the military intelligence group operatives, which were in the contact with Yugoslavian general staff and departed Yugoslavia only during its fall in April 1941.

In 2009, the Australian states and territories signed an agreement to provide 15 hours per week of universal access to quality early education to all children in Australia in the year before they enter school. Taking on board the international evidence about the importance of early education, the Commonwealth government made a considerable investment to make universal access possible by 2013. We explore the ongoing processes that seek to make universal access a reality in New South Wales by attending to the complex agential relationships between multiple actors. While we describe the state government and policy makers’ actions in devising funding models to drive changes, we prioritise our gaze on the engagement of a preschool and its director with the state government’s initiatives that saw them develop various funding and provision models in response. To offer accounts of their participation in policy making and doing at the preschool, we use the director’s autobiographical notes. We argue that the state’s commitment to ECEC remained a form of political manoeuvring where responsibility for policy making was pushed onto early childhood actors. This manoeuvring helped to silence and further fragments the sector, but these new processes also created spaces where the sector can further struggle for recognition through the very accountability measures that the government has introduced.

In the present research the changing of self-control in hypnosis was studied, comparing experiential and behavioral aspects of resistance. In this study the relationship between a regressive, transference-like attitude towards the hypnotist (archaic involvement) and self-control was analysed. In an experiment subjects first participated in a usual group hypnosis with test suggestions, then in another session, in which immediately after arrival, participants were requested to resist the suggestions (that were the same as before) without the hypnotist's awareness of this request. In the course of both hypnosis sessions the passing of the suggestions was scored both by the subjects and by independent observers. The relationship between the archaic involvement measure and the motivation and ability for resistance, the experience of resistance and the involuntariness of hypnotic behavior were measured as well. The results indicate that in a situation of resistance only superficial positive regressive attitude towards the hypnotist is developed; but this situation seems to be favourable for the negative aspects of transference. The deeper the positive archaic involvement (primarily the dependence from the hypnotist and the fear of the hypnotist's negative judgment), the subjects took less effort to resist the suggestions, and they were less able to resist as well. In the meantime, they usually felt that their behavior was involuntary, not directed by themselves. Subjects highly susceptible to hypnosis can be especially inclined to relive their early relationships in relation to the hypnotist so intensively that, neglecting all other aspects, they behave primarily according to the hypnotist's suggestions.

The changing of self-control in hypnosis in subjects of different hypnotic susceptibility was studied in our research, comparing experiential and behavioral aspects of resistance. Subjects first participated in a usual group hypnosis with test suggestions, then in another session participants were requested immediately after arrival to resist the suggestions (that were the same as before) without the hypnotist's awareness of this request. During both hypnosis sessions the passing of the suggestions was measured according to the judgments of both the subjects and independent observers. Furthermore, subjects were asked to rate how intentional they felt the resistance, how much effort they had to do, and how involuntary they felt their behaviour. The results showed that people are usually able to resist suggestive effects. The degree of their resistance was higher according to their own judgment than according to the observers' measure. The classical suggestion effect, namely the involuntariness of experiencing suggestions, operates also in a resistance situation, but this involuntariness is not coercive for the majority of the people to pass the suggestions. Significant decrease of self-control in hypnosis could be observed only in a small proportion of the people. Resisting demanded active cognitive effort in most of the cases, especially for hypnotically susceptible subjects. But it seems that not only hypnotic susceptibility plays role in a successful resistance, but the influence of different - cognitive and affective - mediating factors can be presumed. In the present study the effect of motivation is emphasized primarily because our results show that the success of resistance is significantly determined by the subjects' intention to resist. People are often inclined to let the suggestions take an effect on them, when the experiences promise to be interesting or pleasant for them, even when the demand of the environment is to resist.

Social memory is dynamic, adaptable to the ensemble of group perceptions on the present. In the first decade after WWII there were numerous active anti-communist armed resistance groups in the Romanian mountains. The most powerful resistance groups operated on the southern and northern sides of the Făgăraș Mountains. According to the results of exploratory research conducted in 2020 the representations of the anti-communist resistance in the mountains in Romanian young people’s memories are feeble. Retrieving representations of the resistance is useful as critical exercise in understanding history, as source of identity comfort and as part of the lesson on totalitarianism.
