For this purpose, it first provides a brief overview of the various forms of critique that have been advocated in the field of comparative law. Second, it discusses four epistemological concerns as regards legal comparison that are meant to orient comparatists towards a critical mode of comparative reasoning. While most of the remarks comprised in this contribution apply to legal comparisons in general, a few observations shall be made with specific reference to the stakes and limits of legal comparisons in Central and Eastern Europe.

Due to the scarcity in natural resources and the demand for green labour and economy, education for sustainable development (ESD) gained a great importance in developed countries, let alone developing ones. From this point of view, this paper is studying the possibility of infusing ESD in Egypt after one and a half years since January 2011 youth revolution. A primary data gathering method was conducted within a sample of 79 young undergraduate people (67 from the American University in Cairo and 12 fresh graduates from conventional educational systems). The results indicated that there is a positive relationship between high cultural resources along with early childhood awareness and ESD adoption and infusion. Also, Spearman’s rank association test showed a negative relationship between ESD infusion and the satisfaction level of the current conventional curriculum. On the other hand, Spearman’s rank association test showed that α is greater than 0.05; accordingly, there was no correlation between ESD infusion if introduced within the curriculum of an existing well-established university than if introduced as the final outcome of a new university specialised in ESD. The paper highlights the importance of ESD brand associations offered as a service product. After validating the hypothesis, the author discusses the findings and provides solid recommendations for ESD infusion in Egypt.

The former role of tourism in terms of provision of accommodation and food has become outdated. Tourist offer increasingly includes additional activities, such as visits to various tangible and intangible cultural sites, and events that tourists perceive visually. In the contemporary tourism trends, cultural resources of Southeast European countries have become an important factor that maintains the competitiveness under conditions of the growing competition on a world scale. Cultural resources directly affect tourism, but there is also an inverse relationship reflected in the impact of tourism on cultural resources that are becoming an important factor for the choice of tourist destinations. The subject of this paper is to review the contribution of cultural resources to the development of tourist destinations with the help of the analysis of elements of Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Index - TTCI.

Niniejszy artykuł jest próbą zaprezentowania zjawiska zmiany paradygmatu funkcjonowania kultury w społeczeństwie. W dobie cyfryzacji rzeczywistości oraz tworzenia się kultury w cyberprzestrzeni powstała potrzeba przeniesienia dorobku kulturowego do sieci. Badacze i artyści coraz częściej korzystają z zasobów dostępnych w Internecie. Wystawy sztuki, konferencje naukowe, dzieła oraz publikacje zaczynają przybierać cyfrową formę. Zjawisko to stało się dla autorek inspiracją do przeprowadzenia badań własnych i poznania opinii środowiska akademickiego na ten temat. W pierwszej części artykułu zaprezentowane zostały najistotniejsze aspekty dotyczące postrzegania kultury w tradycyjny sposób oraz wyjaśniono, czym jest e-kultura, odnosząc się przede wszystkim do potrzeb społeczeństwa. Druga część publikacji poświęcona została przedstawieniu wyników pilotażowych badań własnych, które przeprowadzono we wrocławskim środowisku akademickim. Autorki dokonały analizy uzyskanej opinii zbadanego środowiska akademickiego oraz przedstawiły wnioski i refleksje badawcze

This paper constitutes an attempt to present the phenomenon of the changing paradigm of the functioning of culture in the society. In the era of digitalisation of reality and the creation of culture in cyberspace, there arises the need to transfer cultural heritage to the web. Researchers and artists are increasingly using the resources available on the Internet. Art exhibitions, scientific conferences, works and publications begin to take a digital form. This phenomenon has become an inspiration for the authors to conduct their own research and to get to know the opinion of the academic community on this subject. The first part of this paper presents the most important aspects regarding the perception of culture in the traditional way and explains what e-culture is, referring primarily to the needs of the society. The second part of this publication is devoted to the presentation of the results of the pilot research, which was carried out in the Wrocław academic environment. The authors analyse the obtained results of the research and draw their conclusions.

The article intends to assess the impact of the cultural resources as a fundamental tourist attraction for Madeira Island’s country homes in the future rural tourism supply. Madeira is a tourist destination with ancient tradition. Nowadays, the island’s tourist supply is well-known worldwide, essentially for its natural resources, safety and natives’ hospitality. Rural tourism is very recent on the island, it began in the late 20th century. Since its beginning, there hasn’t really been a specific promotion for rural tourism, and country homes owners have been disseminating their ventures within general guidelines for Madeira’s tourist promotion, without considering the heterogeneity of their visitors or even the segment in which this type of tourism is inserted in. Based on inquiries launched to the country homes’ visitors in Madeira and also on interviews conducted to the establishments’ owners, we will present in this article this visitor’s profile, non-existent to date, with special focus on the tourist’s motivations and data that can give us a better understanding of the heterogeneity of this particular tourist segment and the importance of the cultural resources as a tourist attraction on future decisions regarding the promotion of rural tourism in Madeira.

Celem artykułu jest prezentacja wartości zasobów kulturowych jako kluczowej atrakcji turystycznej portugalskiej wyspy Madera w kontekście rozwoju turystyki wypoczynkowej opartej na wynajmie domów wiejskich. Madera od pradawnych czasów była celem wycieczek turystycznych. Obecnie walory turystyczne wyspy są dobrze znane na całym świecie, w szczególności jej zasoby naturalne, bezpieczeństwo i szeroko pojęta gościnność mieszkańców. Jednakże rozwój typowych usług rynku agroturystyki na wyspie rozpoczął się dopiero pod koniec XX wieku. Od początku nie było konkretnej promocji wspomnianej formy turystyki wypoczynkowej, a właściciele oferowali do wynajmu swoje wiejskie domy, biorąc pod uwagę jedynie ogólne wytyczne w zakresie promocji Madery, a nie uwzględniając różnorodności ani też rodzaju turystyki, do którego agroturystyka jest przypisana. W oparciu o analizę ankiety przeprowadzonej wśród gości, a także na podstawie informacji uzyskanych od właścicieli domów wiejskich oferowanych do wynajmu w artykule prezentowany jest – nieistniejący do tej pory – profil gościa ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem jego potrzeb i motywacji turystycznych oraz danych, które mogą wpłynąć na lepsze zrozumienie różnorodności tego segmentu turystyki oraz wykorzystania zasobów kulturowych jako szczególnych atrakcji, promując agroturystykę na Maderze.

Sociology of classes of Michele Lamont, which was developed in a dialogue with Pierre Bourdeu’s theory of classes, is a separate and original proposal of studies on classes. It is to be based on analyses of group identification articulation that are used by actors for self-defining, but at the same time also imply the process of defining and drawing symbolic boundaries between classes. However, these boundaries tend to differ from the boundaries defined in the analyses of economic resources and the social and demographic diversity. Lamont creates and develops her theory against two major challenges that theories of classes face: international comparisons which would focus on cultural distinctions and avoid methodological nationalism, similarly to Bourdieu’s theory. The second challenge would be the forms of social diversity, which are not likely to occur in class analyses, such as racial or gender diversity, and seem to be essential to understand contemporary diversity of societies.
