This article presents selected historical and geopolitical events contributing to formation od specific Russian identity throughout its earliest times up to security developments in 21st centrury. Cultural awareness formed by those events does contribute to current russian foreign policy formulation no only to relation to its „near neighbourhood“, but also within broader ontological forces shaping current processes of globalization. Ontological narrative of specific russian „Self “ within international security environment does shape its actions in world affairs. and to a significant degree can point to likely future behaviour. Such ontologically based security behaviour will be thus based more on epistemiological rather than on „rational actor behaviour“ approach. We will try to prove this concept throughout the text by defining driving forces forming identity of Russian federation and consequently on two major security involvements in Ukraine and in Syria.

In the article its author has attempted to systematize various concepts and ways of approaching the issue of security by representatives of political constructivism. Constructivism is a relatively young concept, which emerged as an alternative to liberalism and political realism. The article presents the main assumptions of the constructivist vision of security, the approach to security by representatives of conventional and critical constructivism, as well as the concept of ontological security developed by constructivists.

Aim. The aim of this paper is to theoretically substantiate individual’s attachment as a need for ontological security, to outline the educational aspects of supporting the ontological security, and to empirically investigate the attachment styles and coping strategies of individuals in early and middle adulthood. Methods. The article is based on an extensive review of the literature, which involves the use of such methods as interpretation (of previously unexplained psychological aspects of ontological security) and comparative analysis (of the views of Ronald Laing and family psychotherapists). An empirical study was conducted. The study group consisted of 90 persons: 45 male and 45 female, at the age of early and middle adulthood. The research used a number of psychological methods to study different types of attachments, relationships, personality traits and coping strategies that help overcome ontological insecurity. The method of statistical and mathematical analysis of results was also applied. Results. Ontological security is a marker of positive types of attachment. Our empirical research has shown that people with anxious attachment more often overcome ontological insecurity by positively rethinking the problem, which can lead to an underestimation of the possibilities of its effective solution. People with a reliable attachment are ontologically secure due to mutual trust, responsibility, problem analysis and planning, which eliminate escape strategies and problem avoidance. Conclusions. Ontological security-insecurity manifests itself in different types of attachments and corresponding coping strategies. The results showed the importance of developing and adapting the methodology of ontological protection for Ukrainian socio-cultural realities. This technique is being prepared to be operationalized with the scales of psychological techniques used in this study.

The aim of this paper is to confront two opposite views on the romantic idea of love and its role in contemporary Western societies. According to one of the analysed perspectives, represented most fully by Anthony Giddens, the romantic idea of love is seen as a dangerous delusion, bound to be abandoned in the rapidly changing societies of today. According to the other view, proposed by Pierre Bourdieu, romantic love is still the only means to escape the power of symbolic domination. In conclusion, both accounts are analysed in terms of their underlying mythologies: victorian in case of Giddens, romantic in case of Bourdieu. Notions of ‘ontological security’ and the ‘unity of the loving dyad’ are shown to be the cornerstones of powerful mythological systems encompassing our aims and modes of expression.

This paper analyses Romania’s foreign policy during the first post-communist years, by employing a theoretical viewpoint based on ontological security and trauma. It uncovers the elite efforts to secure the post-totalitarian state’s identity and international course. Romania’s search for ontological security featured the articulation of narratives of victimhood, which were linked with its proclaimed western European identity. The Romanian identity narrative has long struggled between “the West” and “the East”, trying to cope with traumatic historical events. These discursive themes and ontological insecurities were crystallized in the controversy surrounding the Romanian-Soviet “Friendship Treaty” (1991). Key Romanian officials displayed different typical responses to cultural trauma and debated the state’s path to ontological security, which was reflected in the foreign policy positions.

The article proves the thesis that the time of the pandemic is a great challenge to ask new questions about the most important rules related to sense of our ontological security. The author searches for answers in narrative medicine, unknown in Poland, which demands a radical change in the approach to patients and overcoming stereotypes in the world of doctors. He also accuses the Polish mainstream media of ignoring the voice of patients during the coronavirus epidemic, flooding recipients with soulless data and statistics on the pandemic

Artykuł dowodzi tezy, że czas pandemii jest wyzwaniem pozwalającym stawiać na nowo pytania o najważniejsze reguły związane z naszym poczuciem bezpieczeństwa ontologicznego. Odpowiedzi poszukuje w nieznanej w Polsce medycynie narracyjnej, która domaga się od medyków radykalnej zmiany w podejściu do pacjenta i przełamania obowiązujących w świecie lekarzy stereotypów. Oskarża także polskie media o epatowanie w czasie epidemii koronawirusa statystykami kosztem niedopuszczania do głosu chorych na COVID-19.

Amerykańska psycholog społeczna Shoshana Zuboff w swojej najnowszej książce "The Age of Surveillance Capitalism" nakreśliła kompleksową teorię tłumaczącą przemiany współczesnego kapitalizmu. Nazwała go „kapitalizmem nadzoru”, wskazując na kluczową rolę przemian w zakresie narzędzi kontroli społecznej. Celem niniejszego referatu jest uzupełnienie koncepcji „kapitalizmu nadzoru” o wymiar wpływu opisywanych przez Zuboff procesów na sferę bezpieczeństwa. Rozważona zostanie hipoteza, że tak jak kapitalizm przemysłowy określał warunki brzegowe zimnowojennego wyścigu zbrojeń, tak samo kapitalizm nadzoru Zuboff z koncepcji można interpretować jako koło zamachowe procesu cyfrowego wyścigu zbrojeń.

American social psychologist Shoshana Zuboff describes and presents in her recent book “The Age of Surveillance Capitalism” the theory that explains changes of contemporary capitalism. She calls it “surveillance capitalism” and indicates its crucial role in transformations of social control systems. The aim of this paper is to consider the relationship between “surveillance capitalism” and the global security landscape. We will consider the hypothesis that “surveillance capitalism” is a accelerator of a modern cyber arms race, similar to classic industrial capitalism as in the case of the Cold War arms race.
