Globalisation processes are regarded as some of the most significant phenomena of the present world. According to more optimistic predictions, globalisation processes are responsible for making Marxist social theory and methodological Marxist research tools in the humanities outdated. Globalisation is a progressive, long-term cultural process, consisting of various complex historical factors – mainly economical ones. Cultural and external signs of globalisation are in fact a superstructure consisting of constitutive economical processes. Historical analysis prove, that the beginning of globalisation (in contemporary understanding of this term) should be sought for in colonial conquests having capitalist roots. The example of colonialism clearly shows economic – capitalist origins of national ideologies, such as racism. Ideologies, such as nationalism, seem to be inherent to the globalisation processes. They also seem to be their necessary and integral element. They can manifest themselves in two ways: in the first place: as being affirmative and equivalent, and secondly: on the basis of dialectical contradictions. It seems that globalisation has nothing to do with equality. Moreover, it is an expression of hegemony of anglo-american culture, and dictated by it cultural unification based upon Cocacolonization. Marxist philosophy shaped in face of these processes, based upon postulates of internationalism and international revolution, can be perceived as a social theory only within the context of antiglobalisation and anti-imperialism.

Nowadays, no one could question the fact that in the post-communist countries the laws of economics work in the same way as in the countries in which the communist system has never prevailed. Yet the long-term results of a strategy implemented in the 1990s for the economic transformation, for social life have become visible just now which means that a formulation of a diagnosis encompassing the entirety of the results of “the shock” transformation for the individual aspects of social life is possible only now. From this point of view, we are still living in the period which one can recognise for the great economic experiment.

Although testamentary freedom is an important principle in succession law, legislators and judges across the world have recognized the importance of certain family members by granting them mandatory claims in the inheritance of their deceased relative (in spite of wishes of the deceased). This article focuses on these rights. The goal is to introduce the Dutch framework of imperative succession law and to demonstrate the possibilities of combining the legal and economic discipline to deepen knowledge on these provisions. Whilst examples will focus upon succession law, the concepts will be described in a general manner. This might inspire researchers to apply a similar interdisciplinary approach in other fields of law. The imperative provisions that currently exist for family members in the Netherlands can be divided into two types of claims. The first is the legitime, a fixed claim for children of the deceased. The second type are the other statutory entitlements that cover a specified range of situations in which judges have freedom in deciding upon the requests of family members. However, this discretion raises many questions on the way judges should handle such claims. A combination of law and economics can aid in describing and interpreting the law, for example by defining the need for support that is often required for a successful claim. By relying on economic data and theory, judges can come to a more consistent and substantiated way of establishing the need for support. The interdisciplinary methodology can also improve comparative legal research. The functional approach that is common in comparative legal research, assumes that law fulfills certain functions. Economic figures provide an objective basis that demonstrates what functions a law fulfills and to what extent this is done efficiently. This information can be used to compare the functioning of laws in different countries.

The author seeks an answer to a complex question whether and on what conditions economy may be considered an empirical science. In the first part, basic epistemological and methodological issues along with the problems of rhetorical nature encountered by economists are discussed. In the next part peculiarities of economics are explored, in particular limited possibility of experimenting, uncertainty and generality of forecasts, how research and publication of results influence an object of research and the linkages between economics and human interests. Finally the future directions for economic research are debated, especially, the possible potential of experimental economics and observation, as well as whether and to what extent results of a research can be predicted.

Both trust and risk are issues widely discussed in the contemporary sociology, but researchers usually investigate each of them separately. So far in empirical research done in Poland no one has analysed both phenomena from the entrepreneurs’ perspective. In his book Zaufanie i ryzyko w doświadczeniu przedsiębiorców (Trust and Risk in Entrepreneurial Experience, Katowice, University of Silesia Press 2016) Łukasz Trembaczewski conducts such an analysis. the purpose of the book is, as the title states, investigation of trust and risk from the perspective of modern entrepreneurs.

This article sums up the results of research oriented to analyze dynamics and outputs related to the development of two different technological parks in the North-East of Italy: the Area Science Park of Trieste and the Vega of Venezia. The research has tried to find an answer to the following question: what is the regulation model more efficient to implement good innovation policies? The article argues that, to achieve an efficient innovation governance, it is needed a strong regulation by the innovation broker - the central hub of the innovation network, able to support interactions among innovation-makers and innovation-takers. To test this hypothesis, the empirical research has used both qualitative and quantitative methodologies. In the Area Science Park, good innovation performance appears strictly connected to strong regulation of the technological transfer process. In the Vega, differently, low innovation performances are combined with weak innovation regulation. The paper concludes that institutional settings at the local level can be powered by a model of governance innovation able to combine autonomous interactions among main actors involved in technological innovation with a strong regulation of the process by the innovation broker.

Sometimes you may judge the book by its cover. Those familiar with the works of Guglielmo Meardi know very well that his name as the author usually signals a controversial, if not a provocative content. Italian-born Meardi, who currently is the Head of prestigious Industrial Relations Research Unit at the Warwick Business School, has been covering developments in the field of work and employment relations in Europe for more than two decades, paying special attention to transformations of that field in the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). He pioneered field research in the Polish a# liates of multinational corporations. In $%%$ Meardi stepped forward with a thesis that fuzziness, disorganization and hybridity of Polish industrial relations make our country look like an ‘American Trojan horse (Meardi 2002), posing a threat to the foundations of European Social Model. Ten years later the Author does not hesitate to formulate even more acute diagnosis, writing openly about EU’s lack of capability to maintain the social dimension of European integration after the 2004-2007 enlargement. In his book Meardi claims that the accession of post-communist countries to the EU produced a convenient excuse for undermining the idea of the intrinsic nature of work as a value, which should not be assessed only from a market perspective, as either profitable or not. What happened in the New Member States (NMS) from the CEE after the accession, serves as the evidence.

The article investigates number of areas that could attract interest of both economists and sociologists. The 'Variety of Capitalism' concept is employed as the point of departure for the discussion on diversity of national economic models within the European Union (EU) with the particular emphasis on the trajectory of Poland's economic development since 1989. Acknowledging the fact that there are mixed economies in the modern world, is the key to opening a new field of debate and research. Th e author argues that the issues discussed in his article should be the subject of multi-angled approach exercised by scholars representing various branches of social science.

Artykuł stanowi próbę odpowiedzi na pytanie, na czym powinna polegać społeczna odpowiedzialność uniwersytetu ekonomicznego, w kontekście zapoczątkowanego w 2005 r. procesu przekształcenia polskich uczelni ekonomicznych w uniwersytety ekonomiczne. Autor uważa, że taka zmiana nazwy uczelni ekonomicznej powinna pociągnąć za sobą istotną zmianę sposobu myślenia całej wspólnoty akademickiej oraz zmianę w sposobie jej działania. Zarówno myślenie, jak i działanie wspólnoty uniwersytetu ekonomicznego powinno wynikać z dążenia do prawdy i chęci realizacji zasady uniwersalności nie tylko horyzontalnej, polegającej na otwarciu się na inne dziedziny i rodzaje wiedzy, lecz przede wszystkim wertykalnej, polegającej na pogłębianiu wiedzy. Ta postawa powinna przejawiać się w większej otwartości na prawdę o samym człowieku. Wyrazem tego powinna być koncentracja edukacji i badań wokół trzech postaw człowieka: „być”, „mieć” i „nie mieć” oraz ich wzajemnych relacji. Autor zgłasza postulaty działań, które mogłyby pomóc w dostosowaniu się wspólnot akademickich do nowych zadań wynikających ze zmiany statusu uczelni, a zarazem mogłyby dopomóc w odbudowaniu autorytetu uniwersytetu ekonomicznego. Postulowane działania powinny opierać się na fundamencie miłości i troski o człowieka, a nie na kategorii zysku ekonomicznego. Od wyboru systemu wartości zależy to, jakie dziedzictwo kulturowe uczelnia przekaże przyszłym pokoleniom.

The paper tries to answer the question about the social responsibility of an economic university, in the context of the reform introduced in the Polish system of higher education in 2005, which allowed to transform the former economic academies into economic universities. The author believes that such a change in the name of the economic school should imply a significant change in the manner of thinking and acting of the academic community. Its thinking and behaviour should be consistent with the strive after truth and with the principle of universality, both horizontal - in the sense of being open to other fields and kinds of knowledge, and vertical – the desire to deepen the knowledge. This attitude should be reflected in an increased openness to the truth about the man, with the resulting concentration of education and research activities, on the three dimensions of human behaviour: ‘to be’, ‘to have’, and ‘not to have’. The author puts forward some proposals how to adjust the communities involved to new tasks resulting from the change in the academic status of their schools, the implementation of which could also help to restore the authority of the economic university. The proposed actions should be based on the foundation of love and a true concern for man, not on the profit motive. The choice of a paper value system will determine the kind of the cultural heritage transferred by the university onto future generations.

Статья представляет собой попытку ответа на вопрос, в чем должна состоять социальная ответственность экономического университета в контексте начатого в 2005 г. процесса преобразования польских экономических вузов в экономические университеты. Автор считает, что такое изменение названия экономического вуза должно повлечь за собой существенное изменение способа мышления всего академического сообщества, а также изменение способа его деятельности. Как мышление, так и деятельность сообщества экономического университета, должны вытекать из стремления к правде и желания осуществить принцип универсальности не только горизонтального характера, состоящего в открытости на другие области и виды знаний, но и вертикального характера, состоящего в углублении знаний. Такой подход должен проявляться в большей открытости на правду о самом человеке. Проявлением этого должно быть сосредоточение образования и исследований вокруг трех позиций человека: „быть”, „иметь” и „не иметь”, а также их взаимоотношений. Автор выдвигает постулаты действий, которые могли бы помочь в адаптации академических сообществ к новым задачам, вытекающим из изменения статуса вуза, и одновременно могли бы помочь в восстановлении авторитета экономического университета. Предлагаемые меры должны опираться на фундамент любви и заботы о человеке, а не на категорию экономической прибыли. От выбора системы ценностей зависит то, какое культурное наследие вуз передаст последующим поколениям.

Nowadays, it seems that economics penetrated every single area of human life. In addition to the desire of individuals to possess material goods and an increasing number of objects, which puts them at the appropriate level of the social ladder, more and more often we deal with the phenomenon of family treatment as a part of cultural exchange. This article highlights the problem of treating children as property, commodity, which you can offer to others, in relation to children born and unborn, in the area of trade in semen, commerce adoption, trafficking in children. This situation is present mainly in poor countries, where it is considered as a tool of economic rescue for the family: intended for work work, for sale, prostitution and sent to the street to beg. At the same time the child comes to the „specific” economic investment, the profits of which parents receive in the future. Therefore, it is important to highlight the problem of „child as a commodity” in the modern literature and scientific discussions.

The research focuses on a phenomenon with a political, cultural and sociological nature – war. One purpose of my research is to link this phenomenon with the economy. The wider purpose is to raise political science and sociology to a higher level of analysis with the aim of reducing and unifying the social sciences to a stricter level of analysis. This research objective uses the example of war, and enlists mathematical instruments associated not only with the business cycle. Tests are performed on the example of the U.S. business cycle and that country’s military activity. The research shows the reciprocal relationship of these events, the state of the U.S. economy, determined by variations in the parameters of the national income and related to a growing propensity for military activity, which in turn, as the research shows, reduces the number of wars on a global scale. Other aspects of the paper include a description of the history of the research process, the phenomenon of war and issues and problems from the philosophy of science.

The objective of this study was to investigate whether the use of the Jigsaw model in teaching-learning Economics could improve the results of Senior High School Students in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. A quasi-experimental design was used in this study, which used 60 randomly sampled second year (Grade 11) High School students for the sample, divided into two classes of 30; one the experimental group (EG) and the other the control group (CG). The two groups were homogenous in terms of their initial ability. The instrument used in this study was an essay test. T-test was used to analyse the data collected. The results from the post-test showed that there was then a significant positive difference between the two groups in terms of the students’ achievements in economics; after the EG had been taught-learnt using the Jigsaw model for three months, they got significantly higher results in their economics essays than the CG students, who had been taught economics using the standard model and had not used Jigsaw. The implications of this study show that the use of the Jigsaw model in teaching-learning economics can be a model for improving students’ achievement.

Carlyle’s relationship to the German and English Romantics has received much critical scrutiny. However, despite Carlyle close friendship with Southey, no study of the two, to my knowledge, has been undertaken. Carlyle writes meaningfully of their meetings, and his Reminiscences sketches their many encounters. Even before their first meeting, Carlyle valued Southey’s sense of the Romantic. The relationship also caused Carlyle to reflect on the struggle of great men and on the particular angst writers experience. Largely unrecognized, too, is Southey’s role in popularizing the Saint Simonians, which in turn would stage Carlyle’s commentary on them, identifying key points of correspondence to his own beliefs. Southey also caused Carlyle to understand and then to empathize with the disposition of an exhausted sage, and from Southey he derived his critique of feudal industrialism, inept governmental leadership, bankrupt culture, economic disparity, dispossessed workers, and the despised poor. Southey’s views on industrialism, market economy, and labor would receive wholesale adoption by Carlyle. Southey’s reward in all of this is how approvingly he is remembered by Carlyle, when so many of his contemporaries were disparaged. Despite a certain shyness and nervous disposition, which Carlyle considered a feminine trait, “blue blushes and red,” Southey emerges as affectionate, godly, empathetic, loyal, industrious, and chivalrous. The stuff of which he was comprised were, Carlyle felt, “things rare and worth, at once pious and true.”

The aim of the paper is to justify why contemporary economics must be reoriented from the direction of Economic Growth to the direction of Sustainable Development. Human society is at a deadly curve. The Economic crisis is only one slice of Gordon’s Knot of Crises of our Civilization. The Economy is facing system challenges without precedence. Reasons for this situation are different fetishes of present positive and normative economics. The author explores the main aspects of diagnoses, prognoses, analyses, assessments, and present solutions concerning economy. Of fundamental importance are: the essence of the global crisis, new challenges facing Western civilization in the near future, and fundamental misunderstandings in the proposed solutions of crucial problems. The one chance for an adequate solution to the critical situation is the Strategy of Sustainable Development. In Poland this strategy is absent in mainstream economics as a theory of economy and as the foundation of rational policy. It concerns a very broad front of economic sciences and economic technologies. Economic academic education is also not adequate to the very serious situation facing graduates in the future. Consciousness, knowledge and abilities of economic professionals are good for the past, not for the nearest future. In Poland, an additional problem is a lack of common economic academic education in English. Present economics and economy must be verified with many original (not translated) settlements and conclusions concerning sustainable development from economics and from other sciences and from reality outside economy. Of crucial importance have been settlements and conclusions of ecology and of sociology on the basis of information technologies.

The main purpose of this article is to show the barriers that researchers of economic and political science have to overcome in terms of interdisciplinary studies. The analysis is conducted from the perspective of the two specialist fields. According to the author understanding such barriers and the denotation of common research spheres, enable the opportunities to launch new projects at the intersection of the sciences. After underlining the main features of each science individually in terms of the interdisciplinary potential, the potential for the development of the research including elements of economics and political science is introduced.
