We universally admit that tolerance is a permanent value of the contemporary world because of the fact that intolerance leads to totalitarianism which is always a source of human tragedies. But intolerance is mainly the most important cause of a inhuman treating of other people who have been rejected or partly moderated in their human status. Before tortures are used, a mechanism of dehumanizing victims is universally exploited. The dehumanization is based on the strength of a natural emotional ability of distinguishing between strangers and our own group. This phenomenon is called a “infrahumanism”. The force of the mechanism for excluding is so tremendous, that a submitted group accepts its own situation. The Stanford Prison Experiment conducted in 1971 by Philip Zimbardo also reveals that a person does not have to be a psychopath to torture others. The experiment shows, that a man can become intolerant at once if he only deals with the group which can be called “the strange group”. The more the group is submitted, the more intolerant types of behaviour take on aggressive forms. An extreme instance of this is undoubtedly a willingness to inflict a physical and mental pain on somebody which means torturing others (strangers). 11

Based on the results of the study the issues that remain outside of systematic development are identified. At the present stage of development of pedagogical theory and practice the insufficient and fragmented content, pedagogical tools and conditions of providing gender tolerance are designed. Methods of criterion-level evaluation of gender tolerance according to the age characteristics of students require to work on, and the inclusion criteria of gender tolerance to the regulatory framework on education. Teaching activities to educate the younger generation the basics of gender tolerance require appropriate software and procedures and training. The obligatory condition of realization of these objectives is the inclusion in the curricula for the students of pedagogical specialties of the disciplines "Pedagogy of tolerance" and "Gender pedagogy", which will ensure quality training of future teachers to work with students on issues of tolerance education and gender education. Training will enable future teachers to understand the essence of gender tolerance as personal education, to ensure the educational process and accurately choose the forms and methods of work with unemployed youth in teaching gender tolerance.

Samuel Rutherford (1600?–1661) was a Scottish Presbyterian minister whose political writings form a part of the controversial literature written during the English Civil War period in the mid-seventeenth century. Most of his political writing was done while he sat as a Scottish commissioner in the Westminster Assembly of Divines. His major political book, Lex, Rex was burned by order of the Restoration Government in 1660, and Rutherford was cited on a charge of treason as its author. In his opinion, in order to form a government men contract with one or more men among themselves, giving to them the authority of rulership. The ruler is under contract to rule according to the higher law for the welfare of all people. Rulership is a trust from the people and is never given without reservation. If the ruler misuses his trust, the people have the right and duty to resist him in order to preserve themselves within the higher law. Knowledge of the higher law comes through reason but reason is fallible. However, God has graciously provided the infallible Scripture as a guide to reason. Rutherford believes there is only one true interpretation of Scripture and that God has given to the Church primary authority in interpretation. In this article, the Author argues that Rutherford’s doctrine of exclusive truth leads him to an uncompromising position of religious intolerance.

Even today, Roman studies are not a preferred or widespread scientific branch in this country. It is not possible to aim the study of the Romani history and culture at any particular ethnological category because there are subethnic Romani groups widespread all over the world. Most of the experts therefore focus on a certain region, selected part of history and culture or on a certain subethnic group. The roots of the Romani studies in the Czech Republic go back to the 1960’s and are connected with the names of Phdr. Eva Davidová and doc. Milena Hübschmannová. Up to this day, no programme focused on the Romani culture and history exists apart from the department of Romani studies in the Indological Institute at Charles University in Prague and the lecture and tutorial activities of the employees of the Museum of Romani Culture. In the work of this museum, it is necessary to use the ethnological knowledge. In some cases, it is utilized completely. Another time, it is necessary to use comparative linguistics, both in the relationship Romani - non-Romani and in the relationship Romani - Romani. Some terms that are normally used in ethnology, e.g. folk costume, are entirely improper in the case of the Romani culture. The results of the Romani studies should be utilized in other scientific branches as well. In practice, what prevails is the misunderstanding of the Romani models of behaviour and the effort to substitute them with majority customs, which leads to mutual alienation and mistrust.

The paper addresses racism as a key contemporary challenge to safety at football matches in Europe. The hypothesis is that racism does occur in the sports environment. To prepare the paper, press excerpts and scholarly publications on racism were used. To interpret the material, comparative method was used, so as to present the environments that harm safety in sports. The goal was to demonstrate the role of education in fighting discrimination in contemporary European football and the need to care for security culture in football. It is because football stadiums become arenas for expressing political and ideological views, as well as for racist at-tacks. The author points at the role of mass media and public entities in shaping social atti-tudes concerning racism in sports. He also indicates shortcomings in the law and in the activi-ties of the institutions overseeing sportspeople’s and sports activists’ safety. The conclusion is that the upbringing of society as regards tolerance and respect must become a priority in fighting racism in sports. Further research should focus on the education of children and ado-lescents and on introducing costly and effective sanctions for the individuals and entities that violate the rule of respecting one’s sports competitor.

Walancik Marek, Symbole wielokulturowości w przestrzeni publicznej na rzecz przeciwdziałania nietolerancji [Symbols of Multiculturalism in Public Space to Counteract of Intolerance]. Studia Edukacyjne nr 56, 2020, Poznań 2020, pp. 111-127. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISSN 1233-6688. DOI:10.14746/se.2020.56.6 In the article, the author addresses the issue of the essence and role of the symbol of multiculturalism in public space in the context of counteracting intolerance. The presented text contains not only a presentation of basic terms and theories, but also an analysis of empirical research results related to the issue of the significance of the symbol of multiculturalism in order to counteract intolerance. Frequently appearing facts of intolerance towards culturally different individuals lead to reflection and seeking answers to the question: Does the presence of a symbol of multiculturalism in public space, which was once a borderland space, and today is saturated with various forms of symbols of multiculturalism of the past and of the modern period affect behavior tolerance.

W treści artykułu skoncentrowano uwagę na regulacjach prawa międzynarodowego, stanowiących narzędzie walki z przejawami dyskryminacji rasowej i określeniu ich oddziaływania na polskie unormowania. Scharakteryzowano pierwsze zapisy antydyskryminacyjne, opisano najbardziej znaczące w omawianym zakresie normy międzynarodowoprawne, przedstawiono także definicję legalną pojęcia „dyskryminacja rasowa” oraz podniesiono kwestię wpływu wybranych działań legislacyjnych i faktycznych w sferze międzynarodowoprawnej na unormowanie tej materii w polskim ustawodawstwie. Ponadto, na podstawie analizy raportów organów monitorujących stan ochrony prawnej oraz dokonujących oceny efektywności istniejących w przedmiotowym zakresie regulacji krajowych, podjęto próbę sformułowania postulatów de lege ferenda w zakresie ochrony przed dyskryminacją ze względu na rasę w Polsce.

If we wish to increase peace in the world, we must reduce religious intolerance. Potentially, the way we learn about religion and conceive religion can be a strategy toward this goal. How might we design and continually improve learning about religion if our intention is specifically to reduce religious intolerance? This requires experimentation to determine demonstrably effective solutions. In this paper, I briefly unpack the challenge at hand, describe an approach toward collaborative experimentation, and outline a set of mutually-supporting hypotheses with which to design solutions.

The introduction to the textbook prepared by the Batory Foundation within the program “Citizens for democracy” states that hate speech is a form of violence and crime. Everyone, therefore, has the right to protection against hate speech and the obligation to react to hate speech. It ought to be emphasized that hatred has devastating effects and everything starts with words of contempt, verbal aggression, dehumanization of a potential victim, denying this person a right to live in a common social space. This review article was devoted to this issue. It presents theoretical and legal aspects related to hate speech and selected results of studies, showing the scale of this phenomenon and its impact on violence and aggression in social life.

W podręczniku opracowanym przez Fundację Batorego w ramach programu „Obywatele dla demokracji” we wstępie stwierdzono, że mowa nienawiści jest formą przemocy i przestępstwem. Każdy w związku z tym ma prawo do ochrony przed mową nienawiści oraz obowiązek reagować na mowę nienawiści. Należy podkreślić, że nienawiść ma niszczycielskie skutki, a wszystko zaczyna się od słów pogardy, agresji werbalnej, dehumanizacji potencjalnej ofiary, odmawiania jej prawa do życia we wspólnej przestrzeni społecznej. Problematyce tej został poświęcony niniejszy tekst, który ma charakter przeglądowy. Przedstawiono w nim teoretyczne i prawne aspekty odnoszące się do mowy nienawiści oraz przywołano wybrane wyniki badań ukazujące skalę tego zjawiska i jego wpływ na przemoc i agresję w życiu społecznym.

This paper humbly attempts to explore Descartes’ conception of generosity as an ideal character virtue which can address the problems of the global world like struggle, intolerance and segregation; and thereby creates healthy routes for universal dialogue. The first part attempts to clarify Descartes’ conception of the foundations of generosity. The second part narrates Descartes’ views on generosity as passions and as a virtue. The third part explores the possibility of generosity as a virtue of the individual as well as social character. It also proposes to take the practice of generosity as a mechanism of developing cooperation, tolerance, and, consequently, universal dialogue and harmony.

Artykuł analizuje temat relacji chrześcijańsko żydowskich w aspekcie historycznym i teologicznym. W części historycznej zostały krótko omówione następujące okresy: Nowego Testamentu, patrystyczny, średniowieczny, nowożytny i współczesny. W części teologicznej przedstawione zostały najpierw wspólne elementy judaizmu i chrześcijaństwa: Żydzi i chrześcijanie podkreślają w ich wierze i działaniu związek między miłością i sprawiedliwością; opierają oni swoja wiarę na wspólnych pismach (Stary Testament); rozumieją siebie na wzajem jako lud Boży; wyznają jednego Boga jako Stwórcę i Odkupiciela; wyrażają oni swoją wiarę we własnych służbach liturgicznych, które zawierają wiele podobieństw; żyją w oczekiwaniu nadejścia wspólnej historii z Bogiem to znaczy wypełnienia się historii w Bogu. Elementy odróżniające (różnice w sposobach działania) są następujące: wiara w Jezusa Chrystusa; interpretacja Pism; różne rozumienie czym jest lud Boży; odmiennie rozwinięta pobożność. W konkluzji zostało powiedziane, że rozwijanie pozytywnych relacji chrześcijańsko-żydowskich ma istotne znaczenie dla zachowania chrześcijańskiej tożsamości i pamięci.

The article analyses the subject of Christian-Jewish relations in historical and theological terms. In the historical part the following periods are briefly discussed: New Testament, patristic, medieval, modern and contemporary. In the theological part, the common elements of Judaism and Christianity were first presented: - Jews and Christians identify their faith and action through the interrelations between justice and love; they base their beliefs on the common “scripture” (the “Old Testament”); they understand each other as the people of God; they profess the one God, the Creator and the Redeemer; they express their faith in worship, in which there are many similarities; Jews and Christians also live in the expectation for the common history of God with his people, whose fulfillment they expect. Distinctive elements (The divergence of the ways) are: the belief in Jesus, the Christ; the interpretation of the Scriptures; a different understanding of what God’s people are; different developed piety. In conclusion, it was said that the rediscovery of a positive relationship with Judaism facilitates a positive formation of Christian identity and memory.

This paper deals with cultural, ethnic, religious, physical and mental diversi-ty as well with different preferences of value systems, lifestyles, etc. domi-nating in contemporary societies and presents the resulting educational im-plications. Because of the specificity of social perception, every single case of variation/strangeness triggers off the process of stigmatization/labelling, manifesting itself in intolerant, discriminating or even hostile behaviour. The paper indicates the negative influence of the so-called „hidden pro-gramme” of the school and emphasizes the need for increased educational efforts aimed at the formation of tolerant attitudes among students.

The article describes the challenges which contemporary global society faces caused by intolerance prejudice and hatred. In political and social life hate and prejudice leads directly to repression of those who dare to think independently. The acts of repression range from imprisonment, torture to killings. Repressions of XXth and XXIst centuries are infamous legacy of ancient atrocities. Global society should finally learn historical lessons to oppose any manifestations of hatred and intolerance before they lead to open violence.

The author investigates omnipresent and universal sources/origins of intolerance and its workings and mechanisms in the history of mankind. Afterwards, he presents roots and sources of intolerance during the course of Polish history. A further chapter deals with the most recent and present expressions of intolerance and the rather daring thesis that the disease of intolerance is an inherent trait of Polish awareness.

Autor wprowadza w uniwersalne źródła i funkcje nietolerancji w dziejach człowieka. Drugi nurt rozważań dotyczy historii polskich korzeni i źródeł nietolerancji w różnych okresach historii polskiego państwa i społeczeństwa. Odrębna część rozprawy dotyczy współczesnych postaci nietolerancji i ryzykownej tezy, że zaraza nietolerancji jest trwałą właściwością świadomości polskiego społeczeństwa. Rozważania sprowadzają się do konkluzji, że jedyną drogą uwolnienia człowieka od ksenofobii, nienawiści, uogólnionej nietolerancji jest wychowanie i edukacja.
