In the pedagogical analysis undertaken in this study, some theoretical and methodological conceptualizations were applied, referring to the model of youth’s quality of life, developed on the basis of qualitative material collected in the course of international comparative studies – Tadeusz Lewowicki’s Theory of Identity Behaviors and Harold J. Noah’s model of comparing the quality of academic education. The basis for outlining the relationship between students’ life satisfaction and their sense of identity in the local, regional, national, European and supra-European dimension was the comparative research conducted in 2019–2021 in the Polish-Czech-Slovak borderland. The analysis and interpretation of the collected empirical material show that – although the neighbouring countries have undergone political changes, they belong to the European Union, and they collaborate in many areas – the living standards, but above all the influences in the educational sphere, the models and social values, as well as in lifestyles, are significantly different.

In the presented work, an attempt is made to specify the theory-cognitive significance of J. Reykowski’s concept of multidimensional moral development for intercultural studies. This proposal seems to be particularly useful in pedagogical analyses dealing with moral reasoning of children. The presented research results and their interpretation confirm the presence of intercultural differentiation in the development of evaluation standards of learners in late childhood. Therefore, this concept may have broader application in intercultural studies in education.

W pedagogicznej analizie podjętej problematyki przyjęto konceptualizacje teoretycznometodologiczne, nawiązujące do: Warda H. Goodenougha aksjologicznej koncepcji kultury jako zbioru wartości, Pawła Boskiego teorii tożsamości kulturowej opartej na wartościach i praktykach w warunkach dwu- i wielokulturowej socjalizacji, Tadeusza Lewowickiego teorii zachowań tożsamościowych, perspektywy konstruktywistycznej oraz Harolda J. Noaha modelu porównywania jakości edukacji akademickiej. Przyjęto jednocześnie założenie, że badanie poczucia związku z wybranymi grupami społecznymi przejawianego przez studentów z pogranicza polsko-czeskiego umożliwia poznanie sposobu (sposobów) rozumienia przez nich siebie, Innych i świata, zakotwiczonego w ich własnym doświadczeniu i kulturze. Zachodzące różnice w deklarowanym przez studentów poczuciu związku z wybranymi grupami społecznymi wskazują na dostrzegalną aktualnie tendencję utożsamiania się młodego pokolenia z różnymi społecznościami – kraju pochodzenia, lokalnymi, regionalnymi, czy szerzej – europejskimi i ponadeuropejskimi. Konstruowanie przez młodych uczących się własnej tożsamości to zarazem odchodzenie od jej jednolitego wymiaru na rzecz odkrywania i świadomego wybierania tożsamości wzbogaconej, wielowymiarowej, determinowanej najczęściej postępującymi w różnym tempie i zakresie procesami demokratyzacji życia społecznego. Profil tożsamościowy czeskich studentów, w przeciwieństwie do ich rówieśników z Polski, ma przede wszystkim wymiar narodowy, charakteryzujący się wyraźnymi preferencjami własnej grupy etnicznej (kraju pochodzenia) w zakresie tożsamości, języka i kontaktów społecznych.

In the pedagogical analysis of the undertaken issues, some theoretical and methodological conceptualizations have been applied that refer to: Ward H. Goodenough’s axiological concept of culture as a set of values, Paweł Boski’s theory of the cultural identity based on values and practices in bior multicultural socialization, Tadeusz Lewowicki’s theory of identity behaviours, constructivist perspective and Harold J. Noah’s model of the comparison of academic education. The assumption was also made that the research into the feeling of association with selected social groups manifested by students from the PolishCzech borderland enables one to learn the way(s) in which students understand themselves, the others and the world – the way(s) anchored in their own experience and culture. The differences in the declared by students the feeling of association with selected social groups point to a visible tendency to the young generation’s identification with different communities – of their homeland, local, regional, or more broadly, European or supraEuropean ones. The construction of their own identity by university students means drifting apart from its homogenous dimension and getting closer to discovering the conscious choice of an enriched, multidimensional identity, which is most often determined by processes of the democratization of social life, which take place at various paces and in different scopes. Contrary to their Polish peers, the identity profile of Czech students has mostly a national dimension and is characterized by a clear preference for their own ethnic (national) group in regard to identity, language and social contacts.

The issues explored in the article concern experiencing acculturation stress by children inhabiting Gubin (on the Polish-German borderland) whose parents decided to educate and fulfill school duties in the German cultural environment in the neighbouring Guben. It was assumed that methodical education in German school of Polish children who live with their parents in their homeland: (a) contributes to the children’s applying different culturalization strategies in different areas of life - these differences are visible mostly in the public and private sphere and they change with growing up; (b) becomes the source of permanent and/or recurrent enculturation stress, which children at primary education age are not prepared to manage in the psycho-physical (individual) and social dimension as they lack family support and the support from the receiving environment (culture). What became the basis for the undertaken discussion were the results of some studies conducted in the Polish-German borderland in 2004. They concerned the axiological preferences of I-III class children living in culturally diversified environments as well as some new phenomena, not observed in other regions. They encouraged the author of this study to provide a broader view upon the issues of the culturalization process and to repeat the studies in 2007 and 2017 in order to capture the relative dynamics of this phenomenon.

What has been described in this study are the transformations of the values appreciated by children and youth in the Polish-Czech borderland. This is done in reference to Ronald F. Inglehart’s hypotheses of scarcity and socialization. They assume that: firstly, the individual’s priority values reflect his/her socio-economic environment and the relatively scarce objects in this environment are attributed a subjectively bigger value, and secondly – that the individual’s basic structure of values reflects the conditions in which s/he has been brought up. The studies, conducted in 1990–1991 and 2014–2015 with the use of longitudinal comparisons based on the time criterion, allowed for recognizing the determinants of the young generation’s axiological preferences, for presenting the relative dynamics of the change as well as for capturing the mechanisms which determine this change.

W opracowaniu scharakteryzowano przemiany w zakresie wartości cenionych przez dzieci i młodzież z pogranicza polsko-czeskiego – odwołując się do sformułowanych przez R. F. Ingleharta hipotez niedoboru i socjalizacji. Zakładają one – po pierwsze – że priorytetowe wartości jednostki odzwierciedlają jej środowisko społeczno-ekonomiczne, a przedmiotom, których jest w nim stosunkowo niewiele, nadaje się subiektywnie wyższą wartość i – po drugie – podstawowa struktura wartości jednostki odzwierciedla warunki, w jakich została ona wychowana. Przeprowadzenie badań w latach 1990–1991 oraz 2014–2015 – z wykorzystaniem strategii porównań podłużnych, opartej na kryterium czasu – umożliwiło poznanie czynników oddziałujących na preferencje aksjologiczne młodego pokolenia, jak również przedstawienie względnej dynamiki zmiany i uchwycenie wyznaczających ją mechanizmów.

The study comprises an attempt to specify culturalization strategies applied by the communities of schools with Polish as the teaching language in Austria, France and the Czech Republic. It was assumed that both children and adults (parents and teachers) may apply different culturalization strategies in various spheres of life and that these differences will be noticeable mostly in the public (social) and private (family) sphere. In order to describe the patterns of the respondents’ adjustment to functioning in a different environment than the culture of their origin, some selected components of Paweł Boski’s cultural model of the acquisition of biculturalism were taken into account. These were: the declared feeling of ethnic identity (of the native country) and/or national identity (of the residence country), the knowledge and use of languages (of the native and residence country), social contacts (with members of the ethnic and national group), family and school duties (in the ethnic and national group) and the granted rights (in both these groups).

W opracowaniu podjęto próbę określenia strategii kulturalizacyjnych przyjmowanych przez społeczności szkół z polskim językiem nauczania funkcjonujących w Austrii, Francji i Republice Czeskiej. Przyjęto zarazem założenie, że zarówno dzieci, jak i dorośli (rodzice i nauczyciele) mogą przyjmować odmienne strategie kulturalizacyjne w różnych sferach życiach, przy czym różnice te będą zauważane przede wszystkim w sferach publicznej (społecznej) i prywatnej (rodzinnej). Charakteryzując wzorce przystosowania badanych do funkcjonowania w środowisku odmiennym niż kultura pochodzenia, uwzględniono wybrane komponenty kulturowego modelu nabywania dwukulturowości opracowanego przez Pawła Boskiego, a mianowicie: deklarowane poczucie tożsamości – etnicznej (kraju pochodzenia) i/lub narodowej (kraju osiedlenia), znajomość i używanie języków (kraju pochodzenia i osiedlenia), kontakty społeczne (z członkami grupy etnicznej i narodowej), obowiązki rodzinne i szkolne (w grupie etnicznej i narodowej) oraz przysługujące prawa (w grupie etnicznej i narodowej).

The study presents an assessment of the achievements and problems of intercultural pedagogy as an important educational (sub)discipline, which has been developing intensively in Poland – particularly since the 1990s. Against the background of a crisis of multicultural education, a new suggestion was presented aimed at overcoming its drawbacks in the form of the theoretical assumptions and practical solutions of intercultural education. However, understanding and accepting intercultural education depends on many factors – e.g., historical experiences, the developmental level of societies and the socio-political system. This necessitates presenting the essence of intercultural education as well as formulating its message both in Poland and worldwide.

The outlining of the values appreciated by academic youth and their perception of the possibilities of implementing and fulfilling them was based on the international comparative research conducted in 2019–2021 in the Polish-Czech-Slovak-Ukrainian borderland. In the pedagogical analysis undertaken in the study of this subject matter, some theoretical and methodological conceptualizations were applied, which referred to: (1) Ronald F. Inglehart’s concept of changes of values, (2) the objectivistic approach to values and axiological maturity according to Adam Węgrzecki and (3) comparative analysis in international studies. Comparing the declarations of student groups in the investigated environments reveals significant differences in all value assessments, except for the implementation of moral values and a respectable life. The analysis and interpretation of the collected empirical material also indicate that the image of university students’ axiological preferences is characterized – in the context of Inglehart’s theory – mainly by secular-rational authority and post-materialism aimed at achieving a particular quality of life.

In a pedagogical analysis of social competences, theoretical conceptualization has been assumed which refers to Michael Argyle’s classification of difficult social situations, Tadeusz Lewowicki’s theory of identity behaviours and Robert J. Havinghurst’s concept of developmental tasks. Thus, it has been assumed that social competences are models of social behaviour, and, as complex specific abilities (acquired by children through various experiences), they condition the child’s efficient managing in certain social situations. What is presented in the study is the analysis of the research results collected in 2004–2005 and 2015–2016. The obtained results enabled the comparison of similarities and differences between the surveyed groups of learners from the Polish-Czech borderland concerning highly ranked values and acquired social competences, as well as their relation to the developmental tasks fulfilled in late childhood. This also allowed for the preliminary theoretical interpretation of the research results and for formulating final conclusions.

W pedagogicznej analizie problematyki kompetencji społecznych przyjęto konceptualizację teoretyczną nawiązującą do: propozycji klasyfikacji trudnych sytuacji społecznych Michaela Argyle’a, teorii zachowań tożsamościowych Tadeusza Lewowickiego oraz koncepcji zadań rozwojowych w ujęciu Roberta J. Havighursta. Założono, że kompetencje społeczne są wzorcami zachowania społecznego i jako złożone, specyficzne umiejętności, nabywane przez dziecko w toku różnorodnych doświadczeń, warunkują efektywne radzenie sobie w określonego typu sytuacjach społecznych. W podjętych rozważaniach przedstawiono analizę materiału badawczego zgromadzonego w latach 2004–2005 oraz 2015–2016. Uzyskane wyniki umożliwiły porównanie podobieństw i określenie różnic występujących między badanymi grupami uczniów z pogranicza polsko-czeskiego w zakresie cenionych przez nich wartości oraz nabywanych kompetencji społecznych i ich związku z realizowanymi zadaniami rozwojowymi w okresie późnego dzieciństwa. Pozwoliły również na wstępną, teoretyczną interpretację wyników badań oraz sformułowanie wniosków końcowych.

The undertaken discussion addresses the issues of national identifications manifested by university students. In the pedagogical analysis of this subject matter, some theoretical and methodological conceptualizations have been applied, which refer to: Paweł Boski’s theory of the cultural identity based on values and practices in the conditions of bi - and multicultural socialization, Tadeusz Lewowicki’s theory of identity behaviours, and the theory of intergroup contact and mutual intergroup differentiation, which originate from the hypothesis of contact. What has become the basis for outlining the identification processes taking place in the times of current social changes are the comparative studies conducted in 2018-2019 in the Polish-Czech borderland. The analysis and interpretation of the collected empirical material indicate the occurring changes in the field of criterial and correlative identity attributes of Polish and Czech students. They are determined by other factors than family culturalization and socialization, as well as by the assimilation processes that have taken place (in various extents and scopes) in the Polish-Czech borderland.

Podjęte rozważania koncentrują się na kwestiach dotyczących przejawianych przez młodzież akademicką identyfikacji narodowych. W pedagogicznej analizie podjętej problematyki przyjęto konceptualizacje teoretyczno-metodologiczne, nawiązujące do: Pawła Boskiego teorii tożsamości kulturowej opartej na wartościach i praktykach w warunkach dwu- i wielokulturowej socjalizacji, Tadeusza Lewowickiego teorii zachowań tożsamościowych oraz teorii kontaktu międzygrupowego i wzajemnego różnicowania międzygrupowego, wywodzących się z hipotezy kontaktu. Podstawą do nakreślenia zachodzących procesów identyfikacyjnych w okresie aktualnych zmian społecznych stały się badania porównawcze przeprowadzone w latach 2018-2019 na pograniczu polsko-czeskim. Analiza oraz interpretacja zgromadzonego materiału empirycznego wskazują na zachodzące zmiany w obszarze kryterialnych oraz korelatywnych atrybutów tożsamościowych polskich i czeskich studentów. Są one warunkowane innymi czynnikami niż kulturyzacją i socjalizacją rodzinną, jak również zachodzącymi w różnym stopniu i zakresie zarówno w przeszłości, jak i współcześnie procesami asymilacyjnymi na polsko-czeskim pograniczu.

What is explored in the presented text, in reference to the results of authorial studies conducted in 2005/06 and 2012/13 on teachers working in kindergartens, primary, lower- and upper-secondary schools, are the issues of the implementation of intercultural education in the Polish-Czech borderland. This is done in reference to the levels of the work of school and the teacher, outlined by Jerzy Nikitorowicz, within three major tasks of intercultural education. The empirical data based on questionnaire surveys, observation and document analysis allowed for characterizing contemporary chances and barriers of education towards interculturalism in the environment of both urban and rural school.

The study comprises the presentation of an authorial approach to cultural identity, viewed from the perspective of the communities (consisting of children, parents and teachers) of schools with Polish as the teaching language in Australia and some selected European countries (Austria, France, the Czech Republic). In reference to the culturalistic model of identity, the characteristics of the most frequent identity behaviours of these communities were provided in the ethnic, national, integrative and mixed dimension. The author also indicates the contemporary contexts of identity shaping, which are determined by migration processes and multiculturalism. By formulating the most important conclusions resulting from the research, the need is indicated for implementing intercultural education in schools with Polish as the teaching language. Among other things, this will enhance the shaping of a multidimensional feeling of identity.

What is discussed in the presented study are the transformations in the realization and fulfillment of life aspirations of children and youth from the Polish-Czech borderland. This is done in reference to Carol S. Dweck’s concept of motivation and life aspirations, according to which they are fulfilled in two different ways depending on how the nature of human abilities and the reaction to diffi culty and failure are understood. The studies conducted in 1990-1991 and 2014-2015, with the application of the strategy of longitudinal comparisons based on the time criterion, enabled both the recognition of some factors which affected the fulfillment of life aspirations by the young, and the presentation of the relative dynamics of the change and capturing the mechanisms which determine it.

Aim: This ethnographic study is aimed at outlining the functioning of education with the Polish language as the language of instruction in the Czech Republic. Methods: The research for the text was conducted in the post-positivist paradigm, with the application of the strategy of ethnographic studies. In this regard, the method of searching secondary sources as well as observation and interviews were used. Results: As a result of the conducted analyses, a review of education with the Polish language as the language of instruction was created, pertaining to two counties of the Czech-Polish borderland – Karviná and Frýdek-Místek. Conclusions: Despite an increase in the number of students attending schools with the Polish language as the language of instruction in 2010–2022, simultaneously with the not increasing number of educational institutions (kindergartens and schools), the reasons for the decrease in their total number in previous decades should be sought in: the structural transformations in the Czechoslovak school system, as a result of which lower-organized schools were closed; the liquidation of Polish settlements as a result of mining damages; the lack of vocational schools with the Polish language as the language of instruction; the decreasing social usefulness of the Polish language in the environment; and the increasing number of mixed marriages. On the other hand, the Polish national minority in the Czech Republic has a well-developed organizational background and numerous organizations, social and cultural institutions operate there. Their activities not only serve the minority, but above all support education with the Polish language as the language of instruction.

Aim: The study is aimed at outlining the functioning of the Cieszyn Research School for Borderland Culture and Education, founded and developed over the last three decades by Professor Tadeusz Lewowicki at the University of Silesia in Katowice, Faculty of Ethnology and Educational Sciences (currently: Faculty of Art and Educational Science). Methods: The School’s activity was described on the basis of the concept of distinguishing and estimating seven factors/phenomena attributed to a scientific school – genealogy, time, place, self-awareness, ideological core, methodological core and writings, styles and worldviews, developed by Zbysław Muszyński. Results: The article synthetically presents the results of team research initiated in 1989 in the Polish-Czech borderland in Cieszyn Silesia. The researchers focused on educational environments (family, school, local communities, churches of various denominations), problems of social and educational policy, socialization and identity formation, teacher’s work in multicultural conditions and social conditions of intercultural education. The result of these undertakings is the series “Edukacja Interkulturowa /Intercultural Education/”, published since 1992, which currently comprises 95 volumes. Conclusions: Over thirty years of theoretical achievements, research results and practical experience of the Cieszyn Research School for Borderland Culture and Education, as well as of other Polish research centers dealing with the issues of multi- and intercultural education, became the basis for developing a synthesis containing the outline of intercultural pedagogy – as a discipline of educational science.

Pedagogical analysis of the issues addressed in the study adopts theoretical and methodological conceptualisations, referring to Paweł Boski's (1) theory of cultural identity based on values and practices in conditions of bicultural and multicultural socialisation, Tadeusz Lewowicki's (2) theory of identity behaviours, and (3) comparative analysis in international studies. The basis for outlining the sense of identity in local, regional, national, European and extra-European dimensions manifested by academic youth and their perceptions of mixed marriages was an international comparative study conducted from 2019 to 2021 in the Polish-Czech-Slovak-Ukrainian borderland. The analysis and interpretation of the collected empirical material indicate that – although there have been political transformations in the neighbouring countries, they cooperate in many spheres – both traditional ('constant') elements and new phenomena and processes, determined by the complexity and diversity of historical, cultural-social, cultural-personal and economic conditions, are preserved in the image of identity behaviour manifested by students today. These shape with particular intensity the cultural identity of young learners in the years of early adulthood.

The theoretical and methodological framework of the undertaken issue is indicated by basic notional categories - culture, value and valuing orientations. While analyzing the philosophical and educational context, assumptions of social and cultural anthropology were applied (with a special focus on its anthropocentric-cultural current), (phenomenologically orientated) axiology and cognitive psychology (with the use of its cognitive-developmental theories). Assumption was also made concerning the exploration of youth’s image of the axiological world and the valuing orientations manifested by them, that make it possible to learn the way(s) rooted in culture and experience, in which learners understand themselves, Others and the world.
