The present publication deals with the description of selected aspect of young people’s mentality, i.e. their systems of values. The research was conducted three times: in 2003 (325 respondents), in 2008 (379 respondents), and in 2013 (368 respondents), and it embraced students of the Bialystok universities. An attempt was made to establish if in the period of the ten years between the three surveys, and thus with the advancement of the transformational processes in Poland, one could observe changes in the mentality in the desired direction from the point of view of political transformations from ‘collectivism’ to ‘individualism’. The way of understanding values was adopted from M. Rokeach’s theory. To study the system of values, the Rokeach Value Survey was used. The obtained results lead to a conclusion that together with the advancement of transformation processes, young people’s systems of values undergo the transformation ‘towards individualism’ (except the comparison of the groups from 2008 and 2013). However, this ‘individualisation’ refers to a particular category of values. A growth of preferences for ‘pro-developmental’ values, which are essential for the system changes, was not observed. Instead, there is stronger acceptance of hedonistic values connected with the need for stimulation (an interesting, pleasant and diversified life), as well as the values connected with the social and material status. There was also an increase in the significance of collective values, which are a part of stabilizingaffiliate syndrome.

In this article is determined that the main factor that led to political transformations in the Arabian Peninsula was the process of globalization. Moreover, the impact on the countries of this region was carried out in two vectors - externally and internally. As a result of the active promotion of Western traditions of understanding and functioning of political systems, cardinal reforms and transformations in gender policy, education, socio-economic level, etc. have taken place in the countries of the studied region. The relevance of the study of the proposed topic is due to the fact that the Middle East, including and the Arabian Peninsula become important in Ukraine’s international relations. Although, as the practice of post-reform events shows, often these changes are only declarative rather than systemic. This is primarily due to the slow and unstable movement towards the transformation of socio-political institutions, despite the rather strong pressure in this context from leading international organizations and the leadership of key Western political states.

In the classical meaning, the international society consisting of sovereign states plays a role of an international environment in the international system. Taking into consideration the dynamic transformation in the world politics after the Cold War, globalization, the strengthened international interdependence in its vertical, as well as horizontal realms, and the institutionalization of international social and political spheres fuels the discussion about the future of the international society, its inner structural changes, common norms, values, and rules. The thesis of the paper is the claim that the changes in international state-society reflecting the dynamic of world politics and the global trends do change the character of the international society, but do not change its essence. A growing and seemingly lasting process is strengthening the role of culture and identity in shaping the new structure of the international society.

Autorzy prezentowanych tekstów podają w wątpliwość przekonanie o gospodarczym, finansowym i ziemskim kryzysie, z którym kler miał się zmagać przez ponad dwa stulecia. Analizują ów kryzys, wykorzystując w tym celu kwestionariusz pozwalający na przebadanie źródeł i ustalenie w ten sposób, do jakiego stopnia można faktycznie przyjąć, że mamy do czynienia z kryzysem, a następnie na przybliżenie czynników, które mogłyby go wyjaśnić, wreszcie na ustalenie, czy kryzys ów został przezwyciężony, czy też nie. Wydaje się, iż duchowieństwo musiało zmierzyć się z kilkoma kryzysami, które mniej lub bardziej były związane ze zmianami w podejściu państwa oraz z reakcjami wiernych i całego społeczeństwa. Samego duchowieństwa nie można też zwolnić z odpowiedzialności ze względu na nierówną jakość zarządzania, choć należy stwierdzić, że wpływ na nie miała niekorzystna sytuacja ekonomiczna. Błędem byłoby jednak wierzyć w istnienie ogólnego, nieprzerwanego i nieodwracalnego kryzysu, ponieważ w tym okresie były momenty wytchnienia, szans i ratunku; niektóre instytucje kościelne radziły sobie z kryzysem lepiej niż inne dzięki temu, że osiągnęły krytyczną wielkość, dzięki swoim umiejętnościom czy też dzięki przypadkowi.

The authors challenge the belief in an economic, financial and land crisis which the clergy apparently faced for over two centuries. They examine the crisis, using a questionnaire allowing them to question the sources and thus to determine to what extent it is really possible to assume that we are dealing with such a crisis, then to bring to light factors which could explain it, and, finally, to establish whether the crisis was overcome or not. It seems that the clergy had to face several crises, all more or less associated with changes in the attitude of the state, as well as with reactions of the faithful and of society as a whole. The clergy themselves should not be exempt from responsibility due to the uneven quality of their management, although it has been affected by unfavourable economic circumstances. It would be wrong, however, to believe in a general, continuous, irreversible crisis, as there were moments of respite, opportunity and salvation; some ecclesiastical institutions have managed to overcome the crisis better than others by reaching a critical size or thanks to their skills, or by chance.

The analysis embraces the transformation processes Central and Eastern Europe embarked upontwenty five years ago. They occurred in different fields - politics, society, economy, culture, and internationalrelations. Despite initial optimism in political science research, the prolonged analysis of thetransformations reveals a number of scenarios implemented in different countries. The notion of ‘transition’(tranzycja in Polish), defined as the transformation of non-democracy into a system of liberal democracy,turns out to be of little value in a more detailed analysis in political science. A portion ofBalkan or post-Soviet states has gone for a ‘hybrid’ model, lying somewhere between democratic andmarket solutions on the one hand, and the routine of a socialist state at the end of the 1980s on the other.This background of events and processes is completed by ‘Europeanization’, treated as the promulgationof West European solutions to the whole continent and the unification of political, socio-economic andcultural systems.

Analiza obejmuje procesy transformacyjne w regionie Europy Środkowej i Wschodniej zainaugurowane 25 lat temu. Obejmują one zróżnicowane sfery - polityczne, społeczne, gospodarcze, kulturowe oraz międzynarodowe. Pomimo wcześniejszego optymizmu w badaniach politologicznych, dłuższa analiza procesów zmian pozwala na dostrzeżenie wielu scenariuszy realizowanych w poszczególnych państwach. Termin „tranzycja” jako przejście od systemu niedemokratycznego do systemu liberalnej demokracji okazał się mało przydatny do bardziej szczegółowych analiz politologicznych. Część państw bałkańskich czy poradzieckich wybrało model „hybrydowy” zawieszony pomiędzy rozwiązaniami demokratycznymi i rynkowymi a porządkami obowiązującymi w państwie socjalistycznym do końca lat 80. Powyższe tło wydarzeń i zachodzących procesów w omawianym regionie Europy uzupełnia „europeizacja” - traktowana jako rozpowszechnianie rozwiązań Europy Zachodniej na cały kontynent oraz ujednolicanie porządków politycznego, społeczno-gospodarczego czy kulturowego.
