Do tej pory zagadnieniu dostępności wśród osób z różnymi niepełnosprawnościami żyjących w społeczeństwie arabskim ogólnie, a w społeczeństwie Beduinów w szczególności, poświęcono niewiele badań. Prezentowane w artykule badania to pionierskie studium pilotażowe, które skupia się na kwestii dostępności wśród osób z niepełnosprawnościami w społeczeństwie Beduinów w regionie Negew. Badania zgłębiają problem dostępności oraz główne potrzeby osób z niepełnosprawnościami żyjących w uznanych społecznościach. W toku badań przeprowadzono sto (100) wywiadów z osobami z niepełnosprawnościami żyjącymi w regionie Negew. Część badanych była członkami społeczności uznanych, a część społeczności nieuznanych. Z wyników badań wyłania się ponury i trudny obraz psychicznego i społecznego stanu osób z niepełnosprawnościami w kontekście dostępności instytucji oświatowych i publicznych.

Starzenie się ludności Polski będzie stanowić jedno z najważniejszych wyzwań polityki zdro-wotnej i społecznej w nadchodzących latach. Obecnie uważa się, że aktywność fizyczna jest jed-nym z najważniejszych czynników gwarantujących osobom w okresie starości szansę na zdrowe i pomyślne starzenie się. Celem niniejszej pracy jest przedstawienie w świetle literatury przedmiotu znaczenia aktywno-ści fizycznej w profilaktyce i leczeniu wybranych schorzeń w okresie starości. Prezentowana praca przedstawia informacje dotyczące prewencyjnego wpływu aktywności fi-zycznej na wybrane schorzenia wieku starczego; ćwiczenia dla osób w okresie starczym z choro-bami układu krążenia (w nadciśnieniu tętniczym i niewydolności mięśnia sercowego) oraz ćwi-czenia w chorobie zwyrodnieniowej stawów i w osteoporozie. Podkreślono w niniejszej pracy fakt, iż pozytywne efekty przynosi jedynie regularne podejmo-wanie aktywności fizycznej. Istnieje coraz więcej dowodów wskazujących na to, że aktywność fi-zyczna może zapobiegać lub opóźniać występowanie wielu schorzeń wieku starczego.

THE ESSENTIAL CONNECTION BETWEEN COMMON SENSE PHILOSOPHY AND LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE

This article argues that, strictly speaking, from its inception with the ancient Greeks and for all time, philosophy and science are identical and consist in an essential relationship between a specific type of understanding of the human person as possessed of an intellectual soul capable of being habituated and a psychologically-independent composite whole, or organization. It maintains, further, that absence of either one of the extremes of this essential relationship cannot be philosophy/science and, if mistaken for such and applied to the workings of cultural institutions, will generate anarchy within human culture and make leadership excellence impossible to achieve. Finally, it argues that only a return to this “common sense” understanding of philosophy can generate the leadership excellence that can save the West from its current state of cultural and civilizational anarchy.

Since most pressing today on a global scale is to be able to unite religion, philosophy, and science into parts of a coherent civilizational whole, and since the ability to unite a multitude into parts of a coherent whole essentially requires understanding the natures of the things and the way they can or cannot be essentially related, this paper chiefly considers precisely why the modern world has been unable to effect this union. In so doing, it argues that the chief cause of this inability to unite these cultural natures has been because the contemporary world, and the West especially, has lost its understanding of philosophy and science and has intentionally divorced from essential connection to wisdom. Finally, it proposes a common sense way properly to understand these natures, reunite them to wisdom, and revive Western and global civilization.
