This paper puts forward the argument that Performance Measurement Systems (PMSs) foster rational, self-interested behaviour and vested values at all levels within organisations, which weakens moral barriers preventing fraud, fabrication of data and bribery. It argues that the longer a PMS is in operation, the greater the probability that rational self-interested behaviour in conflict with fundamental values and goals will be consolidated, aggravated and disseminated within organisations that operate within public welfare policy. If implemented, common incentives aimed at counteracting undesirable behaviour aggravate and speed up this process rather than reversing it. In a worst-case scenario, PMSs are the first step toward corruption, even though PMSs have been implemented with the good intention of improving public policy and strengthening accountability.

The article is devoted to the issue of the implementation of the Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) of 6 July 2016 on measures contributing to a high level of security of networks and information systems within the territory of the Union (the so-called NIS Directive) into the Polish legal system. In this context, the author analyses the Act on the National Cybersecurity System, presenting the system and its individual components. The subjects of consideration are the provisions of the Act on National Cybersecurity System of the Republic of Poland and other legal acts concerning the subject matter, which entered into force before the adoption of the analysed act. In conclusion, the author states that in some cases, it is necessary to amend individual legal acts in order to avoid ambiguities which lead to disruption of the system as a whole. The basic method used in this article is legal dogmatics and critical analysis of the scientific literature, documents and opinions of experts—practitioners.

The article presents a discussion of strategic management with a particular focus on the possibility of using project management as a strategy implementation instrument. It describes selected strategy management paradigms and models. Strategy implementation was treated as the transposition of the model of a “dead” system – the strategic plan – onto a live system, or an organisation realising defined strategic goals. This requires static changes in organisational structure as well as a shift in the mindset and approach to the organisation’s employees. The changes themselves require creativity, innovation and the formation of project groups to carry out the work.

The purpose of this research is to investigate English teachers’ perception and challenges of the implementation of ICT in ELT classrooms. This study used mixed methods, qualitative and quantitative in nature. A purposive sampling technique was used to select the study subjects, who are 26 English teachers from 16 public senior high schools in Banda Aceh. Questionnaires and interviews were used to collect data. The data were analysed and interpreted through qualitative and quantitative procedures. The results showed that the English teachers found ICT very helpful in teaching. However, the limited time and tools, coupled with a poor Internet connection as well as a lack of knowledge and experience of ICT training were obstacles for the teachers using ICT. The results of this study give meaningful insights for policy makers in relation to the implementation of ICT for teaching and learning in the classroom.

The article discusses the problems of implementation of the Convention on the Rights of persons with disabilities in the Polish civil law. Polish legislator needs to choose the model of legal regulation of adult’s protection, which will replace the incapacitation. The article presents the solutions adopted in this field in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, England, France, Hungary, and in some other European countries. The institution of incapacitation is deeply rooted in the Polish legal system, both in law and in legal culture. The abolition of incapacitation will require changes in many areas of law such as family law, rights of the patient, the rules of the exercise of the legal professions and the medical professions, and others. The reform of adult’s protection law carried out in other European countries have faced many problems, such as rising costs of institutions dealing with the protection and the ineffectiveness of many of the new norms. The reform of the law to protect adults conducted in Poland can and should learn from the experience of other countries in this regard.

The disbursement of funds of the European Union’s budget with regard to Common Agricultural Policy imposes on administrative authorities of Community and Member States many responsibilities to protect financial interests of the EU’s budget. This paper presents the characteristics of these responsibilities and legal consequences of their violations and deals only with issues connected with responsibilities of domestic authorities. A well– functioning system of protection of such interests consists of a group of institutional guarantees starting with the effectively functioning institutions at the level of coordination, management and implementation of UE’s aid, through effective management and control system dealing with disbursement of these funds. The effectiveness of the protection of those interests in particular Member States can be assessed by ascertained irregularities. Although Poland is considered to be a country which effectively deals with above mentioned protection of financial interests, it does not exempt our country form the obligation of further development in these area.

Health psychology was founded as a response to social needs for better understanding and regulation of psychological aspects of biological, mental, and social well-being. Despite initial enthusiasm and optimism in its early days, three decades of development yielded results that are disappointing to many scholars in terms of health psychology practical meaning. Thus, in this paper we review several challenges for health psychology. We believe that health psychology might benefit from revival of aims and values that distinguished the discipline at its onset such as bio-psycho-social perspective that has been narrowed to somatic illness in recent days. Second, more integration is needed in theory and terminology to eliminate overlapping concepts labeled with different names. Furthermore, social practice would benefit from greater responsiveness of health psychologists to new technologies. Finally, health psychology is likely to derive benefits from more general well-established perspectives on diffusion of innovation in social practice. We conclude that health psychology as a practice-related scientific discipline is likely to regain its initial momentum once these problems are solved and novel areas of scientific exploration are identified.

Wildlife crime is one of main threats to biodiversity. It is often committed by organized criminal groups and generates them significant sums of money. Despite these facts, it remains underestimated by authorities that are responsible for enforcement of rules on environmental crimes. Efforts to adopt a common international legal framework within the Council of Europe have failed, also the EU’s Environmental Crime Directive is being implemented in a very limited way. On the basis of various studies, the article provides evaluation of this implementation, describes main shortcomings and indicates also several recommendations for further steps.

The paper deals with issues related to implementation of the European Council Framework Decision of 23.07.2003 (2003/577/WSiSW) on the execution in the European Union of orders freezing property or evidence in the selected Member States. The Decision is an important instrument in judicial cooperation between the EU Member States, based on the principle of mutual recognition of court orders. To begin with, the author asserts that the European Union has yet to work out a system of the execution of legal assistance in the criminal proceedings, which is specific, uniform and used by all Member States. Major critical arguments are brought forward against the functionalities of the mutual recognition principle, quoting in particular the European Arrest Warrant, considering the right to defense. Critical assessment of implementation of the Decision of 23.07.2003 is supported by the Report of the Commission of the European Communities of 22.12.2008 (COM 2008 885) and by the Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament and the Council – Proceeds of organized crime: ensuring that “crime does not pay” of 20.11.2008 (COM 2008 766). In those documents European Commission has concluded that in several Member States implementation is delayed, incomplete or not in conformity with guidelines set by the Decision. Finally, the author examines regulations of the Polish Criminal Procedure Code, the regulations introduced in Germany on 06.06.2008, amending the Act on the international judicial cooperation (not referred to in the Report of the European Commission) and the regulations of the British system of common law, which only barely implemented the Framework Decision of 2003.

Legislative policy is understood in this paper as a holistic approach to the law-making process. EU legislative policy is missing the overall idea on how to legislate, a fact which has induced fragmentation, lack of cohesion and improper implementation of EU law. The goal of this study is not a theoretical discussion on the negative aspects of directive functioning, but to focus on selected imperfections of EU legislative policy and to illustrate them with examples of selected directives. My thesis is that EU legislative policy based on directives is far from perfect or even effective and requires definite changes. As a first step, using fragmentary regulations of particular domains (sectors) of socio-economic life should be stopped. Second, the EU legislature needs to make significant progress in terms of the legislative quality of the laws created. Finally, mechanisms requiring the implementation of directives by member states should be strengthened. These measures require prompt application if the EU legal system is to be an effective tool for, rather than obstacle to, European integration.

The paper discusses the process of Polish labour law adjustment to the European Union requirements. The process of labour law regulations evolution prior to the accession of Poland to the European Union can be divided into three stages: the first one started with the systemic transformation and continued until the coming into effect of the Europe Agreement made between Poland and the European Communities and their Member States, the second one started in February 1994 and continued until commencement of negotiations concerning membership of Poland in the European Union while the third one was the period of negotiations with the European Commission that ended in the accession. During the early years of operation of the new system the focus was on two important issues - first, elimination of the regulations referring directly to the planned economy system that did not fit the market economy realities and second, protection of the interests of employees losing jobs as a consequence of restructuring of their employers. During the period of association with the European Union, Article 68 of the Europe Agreement contained, expressed expressis verbis, the requirement for the approximation of Poland's existing and future legislation to that of the Community. The provision also stated that Poland shall use its best endeavours to ensure that future legislation is compatible with Community legislation. The Europe Agreement did not, however, impose the general duty of Poland's accession to the European Union. The process of Polish labour law harmonisation gained the highest dynamics during the years of negotiations with the European Union. That period was characterised by the largest number of changes in regulations while major novellas to the regulations occurred in 2001, 2002 and 2003. This paper aims at presenting the process of Europeanization of the Polish labour law that took place after 1989. The paper presents the stages in the evolution of regulations and major directions of changes in the labour law. It also presents the issues of the novellas becoming effective, interpretation of regulations and critical comments to the process of Polish labour law adjustment to the European Union directives.

The implementation of CRM strategy itself needs vast amount of effort from the whole company including both, workers and management. Especially the strategy needs the change of the way of thinking (in terms of the product) and taking into consideration clients position in every process in a company. Moreover, this concept requires full commitment of staff and management regardless the management level. The most important then are becoming trainings and the creation of the proper motivational system. Among outside factors one can number such as information access, kind of a client contact, the emotional notion towards a product or service, number of clients and value of transaction per unit. The biggest problem is caused by a kind of the client contact and information access which is attached to it. The influence of the rest of factors can be reduced for example by the usage of CRM system, promise model or such tools as contests, lotteries or loyalty contracts.
