The globalization of the automotive industry in the last twenty years has manifested itself ina rapid increase in the assembly of automobiles and the production of automotive components and spareparts outside of the traditional centers of automotive manufacturing. On the basis of contemporary researchand literature, we can distinguish two types of emerging centers of automobile manufacturing.First are potentially large domestic markets with a low level of motor vehicle ownership and rapidlygrowing economy such as Brazil. The second type of new automobile manufacturing center consistsof the peripheries of automotive core regions such as Mexico in the case of the North American coreregion and Central Europe in the case of the Western European core region. These new growth centershave benefitted from their lower production costs compared to those of core regions and their geographicproximity to the largest automobile markets. These emerging centers of manufacturing havebecome attractive locations, especially for export-oriented manufacturing facilities operated by largetransnational automotive corporations attempting to improve their global competitiveness. The purposeof this paper is to evaluate the effect of foreign direct investment on the development of automobile productionin these three emerging regions. The paper reviews post-1990 production trends and changes inthe geography of automobile production, especially new greenfield investments in the three analyzedregions. We examine changes in international trade in Brazil, Mexico and Central Europe with a focuson automobiles and automobile parts. Based on the results of our research, we determine the effects offoreign direct investment and industrial upgrading on the role of these emerging production centers inthe global production system.

The article is devoted to the modern theoretical and methodological approaches to investigation of “transnational educational space” and “transnational higher education” phenomena. The author analyzes the shifting concepts of nationhood and the challenges that transnational migrants’ mobility pose to ideas of cultural homogeneity in education and feelings of belonging. In the paper the influence of migration processes on transnational educational space and transnational higher education development has been exposed. The individual transnational mobility of students has been studied in the context of globalization and internationalization. The article argued that education systems should constantly reformulate themselves to accommodate newcomers successfully.

Utworzenie Związku Radzieckiego, w ramach określonego założenia politycznego, wymagało od jego władz przeprowadzenia licznych reform politycznych i gospodarczych. Jednym z głównych celów jego powstania było stworzenie odseparowanego od innych krajów (w szczególności zachodnich), samowystarczalnego i zintegrowanego wewnętrznie tworu państwowego. Po upadku ZSRR byłe republiki związkowe odzyskały niepodległość. Transformacje systemowe umożliwiły im rozszerzenie kierunków handlu oraz przepływu środków finansowych w postaci nowych inwestycji o kraje spoza obszaru radzieckiego. Celem artykułu jest analiza powiązań gospodarczych występujących obecnie pomiędzy byłymi republikami Związku Radzieckiego przez pryzmat wielkości i struktury geograficznej (kierunków) przepływów bezpośrednich inwestycji zagranicznych. Porównanie w pracy wyników analizy danych z uwarunkowaniami historycznymi oraz aktualną sytuacją geopolityczną w regionie pozwoliło autorce odpowiedzieć na postawione we wstępie artykułu pytanie badawcze: „Czy obecnie można mówić o istotnej reorganizacji polityki gospodarczej, polegającej na rzeczywistym otwarciu państw postradzieckich na nowe rynki, czy ich dalszej integracji z krajami, których obszary znajdowały się w przeszłości za tzw. żelazną kurtyną?”. Artykuł wzbogacono ponadto o krótki przegląd ustaleń terminologicznych.

The creation of the Soviet Union (USSR), as the result of a specific political objective, required a large number of political and economic reforms. One of the main objectives was the establishment of a state that is isolated from other countries (particularly the western ones), independent, self-sufficient and internally integrated. After the dissolution of the USSR, the former Soviet republics became independent. Political transformations facilitated the development of a more dynamic international trade and opened new possibilities for foreign investments. The aim of this article is, through careful examination of the size and geographical structure (direction) of direct foreign investments, to analyse and explain specific economic links currently existing between the former Soviet republics. Comparing the results of the analysis with historical determinants and the geopolitical situation in the region has allowed the author to answer the initial question of the article: Can we really speak of a reorganisation of the political economy based on actual opening of the post-soviet countries to new markets? Or is it rather a matter of further integration with the countries that have been similarly situated behind the so called iron curtain? Additionally, the article contains a short review of used terminology.
