Anton Štefánek – sociologist, politician, journalist and educator was a prominent yet undervalued figure in Slovakia of the 20th century. Štefanek‘s public activity in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Czechoslovak Republic (CSR) involved a number of different areas. His sociological work encompassed the period between the late 19th century and the latter half of the 20th century including the evolution of Slovak sociological thought. However, the most important from the perspective of a historian, political scientist and sociologist was his general perception of social thought and of the intellectual condition of Slovakia at large.

The aim of the present study is to explore the anti-Zionist journalistic activities of Najib al-Khuri NaSSar in his paper al-Karmal in the period before the First World War. The paper focuses on the issues of al-Karmal published in 1914. All articles dealing with Zionism from this year were thoroughly analysed. The editor of this newspaper, Najib NaSSar, was the most active and persistent anti-Zionist journalist and activist of this period. Most of his attention was devoted to Zionist land purchases and he drew attention to every change to the existing status quo. He regularly warned his fellow citizens that the goal of the Zionists was to take possession of Palestine and drive out the indigenous Arab population.

It isn’t a subject of controversy that the media– radio, television, Internet, newspapers, books, have a great impact on us, fulfilling the role of the „Kantian” glasses through which we view the world. Disability, until recently treated stereotypically and hermetically media devote more attention. The image of disabled people is constantly changing, being shaped by the environment of skilled and specialized. Therefore it seemed important to examine and compare the opinions of physiotherapists and journalists on the subject, including journalists with disabilities. The aim of this study was to identify the opinions of journalists and physical therapists on the perception of the image of a disabled person in the media.

New forms of media require a special kind of ethical sensibility. Changes in the way we function in the modern world are greatly determined by the dominant media form. We are surrounded by changing forms of media and new technologies themselves are beginning to determine culture. A new kind of engagement in society and community life is being created by the internet. Do we need therefore a new kind of media ethics? No. We only need to learn how to apply old ethical values to new situations; we need to care about the way in which our messages are put across and we need to assume responsibility for the words we use – always concerned about the good of our recipients. The central postulate of media ethics during the pontificate of pope John Paul II was that the human being in all their social complexity must be the aim and measure of all forms of media and social communication. A secondary postulate was that the media must aim to educate its recipients to make informed choices, and must observe the standards of truth and social responsibility in the area of adverstising. Pope Benedict XVI has recently built upon these postulates by arguing that a new discipline of infoethics in the area of communications is necessary to determine ethical criteria and standard in the same way that bioethics tries to do for medicine and sciences concerned with human life. In terms of „evangelizing” the media, the Church never seeks to impose its own ethical values onto the world of media and communications, rather it proposes a set of ethical criteria which flow out of the truth about man and the world. These are truth it receives, not ones it creates.

Although born in the United States, Andrej Vrbacky (1908-1974) came from the Slovak Lowland. His parents returned to Vojvodina shortly after his birth. From his early years, Vrbacky worked on two-way Yugoslavian-Czechoslovak route in two parallel professions - as a journalist and as a translator. He had wide contacts, broad thematic coverage in journalist and translational activities. Vrbacky lived in Yugoslavia, but it was not in the way of his cooperation with Bratislava and Kosice theaters. From 1933 to 1945, he was the main supplier of translations for Slovak professional stages - he prepared translations for 13 productions. The bibliography for the years 1938-1945 contains 54 entries of book translations and professional stage productions, and there are eighteen entries for the name of Andrej Vrbacky, representing 33% of the total production - no other translator was involved in the total production of translations from Croatian and Serbian on such a scale. On the other hand, he translated Ivan Stodola's plays Jozko Pucikk and His Career, Tea at Mr. Senator's, Bankinghouse Kuwich and Comp. into Serbo-Croat. Vrbacky's productivity and basic features of his translation program, or rather translation strategy, are evident throughout the all fields of dramatic arts - the author does not mean only translation of dramas that came out in the press and staged in amateur theatre, but also Vrbacky's pioneering collaboration with the Slovak Radio, which he supplied with many translations and his own adaptations of dramas written by South Slavic authors. After the period presented in this article, Vrbacky still worked as a journalist and a translator and until his late years he was a productive and inventive translator. Ample translational and popularizational work of Andrej Vrbacky is an important pillar of Slovak - Yugoslavian relations of the 20th century and the extraordinary contribution to Slovak culture and the culture of South Slavic nations.
