The present text aims to organize and approximate the information which concerns the Ukrainian society in XIX century that was shown in ethnographic magazine „Wisła”. Thanks to thorough field research, documented in the periodical, readers have been informed that even then people had noticed the differences among the representatives of Ruthenians.

Die Organisation des Rundfunks in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland wird durch Art. 5 Abs. 1 Satz 2 GG bestimmt. Danach ist der Rundfunk so zu organisieren, daß die Freiheit der Berichterstattung durch Rundfunk gewährleistet wird. Da der Grundrechtsnorm, die Freiheit der Berichterstattung durch Rundfunk zu gewährleisten, allerdings nicht zu entnehmen ist, wie dies verwirklicht werden soll, kommt der Interpretation des Begriffs der Freiheit der Berichterstattung durch Rundfunk (Rundfunkfreiheit) eine wesentliche Bedeutung für die Organisation des Rundfunks zu. Dabei stehen sich zwei konkurrierende Interpretationen der Rundfunkfreiheit gegenüber, die subjektiv-rechtliche Interpretation der Rundfunkfreiheit als Gründungsfreiheit für Rundfunkunternehmen und die objektiv-rechtliche Interpretation der Rundfunkfreiheit als dienender Freiheit; sie dient der Gewährleistung freier und öffentlicher Meinungsbildung und erfordert eine private oder öffentlich-rechtliche Organisationsform des Rundfunks, die es ermöglicht, daß sich das gesamte gesellschaftliche Meinungsspektrum in den Rundfunksendungen widerspiegelt. Ziel der Untersuchung ist es zu zeigen, daß die Rundfunkfreiheit aus ökonomischer Sicht objektiv-rechtlich interpretiert werden sollte.

Krasznahorkai László nem csupán a kortárs magyar irodalom, hanem napjaink világirodalmának is az egyik legfontosabb és legeredetibb alkotója, aki 1977-ben megjelent első elbeszélése óta konok következetességgel írja életművét, voltaképpen egyetlen szöveget. Szabó Gábor informatív monográfiája az életmű belső mozgásait, motívumvándorlásait vizsgálja, és akkurátus pontossággal olvassa és elemzi végig az életmű egészét. A Kilátás az utolsó hajóról cím a Krasznahorkai-epika hullámmozgásaira utal,ugyanakkor a perspektíva, az esély(telenség), távlat(nélküliség) mellett a művekben megjelenő reménylehetőségekre is rávilágít. A kötet nem csupán a Krasznahorkai-művek összefüggéseit, a filozófiai, természettudományi és képzőművészeti hatásokat és vonatkozásokat térképezi fel,de ragyogó összehasonlító elemzéseket olvashatunk az író számára megkerülhetetlen Hermann Melville,Jorge Luis Borges és a nemrég elhunyt kolosszális amerikai regényíró, Cormac McCarthy apropóján is.

In Empire's Violent End, Thijs Brocades Zaalberg and Bart Luttikhuis, along with expert contributors, present comparative research focused specifically on excessive violence in Indonesia, Algeria, Vietnam, Malaysia, Kenya, and other areas during the wars of decolonization. In the last two decades, there have been heated public and scholarly debates in France, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands on the violent end of empire. Nevertheless, the broader comparative investigations into colonial counterinsurgency tend to leave atrocities such as torture, execution, and rape in the margins. The editors describe how such comparisons mostly focus on the differences by engaging in "guilt ranking." Moreover, the dramas that have unfolded in Algeria and Kenya tend to overshadow similar violent events in Indonesia, the very first nation to declare independence directly after World War II. Empire's Violent End is the first book to place the Dutch-Indonesian case at the heart of a comparison with focused, thematic analysis on a diverse range of topics to demonstrate that despite variation in scale, combat intensity, and international dynamics, there were more similarities than differences in the ways colonial powers used extreme forms of violence. By delving into the causes and nature of the abuse, Brocades Zaalberg and Luttikhuis conclude that all cases involved some form of institutionalized impunity, which enabled the type of situation in which the forces in the service of the colonial rulers were able to use extreme violence.

This volume contains a selection of papers from the 10th International Conference on Language Variation in Europe (ICLaVE 10), which was organized by the Fryske Akademy and held in Leeuwarden/Ljouwert (the Netherlands) in June 2019. The editors have selected thirteen papers on a wide range of language varieties, geographically ranging from Dutch-Frisian contact varieties in Leeuwarden to English in Sydney, Australia. The selection includes traditional quantitative and qualitative approaches to different types of linguistic variables, as well as state-of-the-art techniques for the analysis of speech sounds, new dialectometrical methods, covariation analysis, and a range of statistical methods. The papers are based on data from traditional sources such as sociolinguistic interviews, speech corpora and newspapers, but also on hip hop lyrics, historical private letters and administrative documents, as well as re-analyses of dialect atlas data and older dialect recordings. The reader will enjoy the vibrant diversity of language variation studies presented in this volume.

Princess Marie Adelheid of Lippe-Biesterfeld was a rebellious young writer who became a fervent Nazi. Heinrich Vogeler was a well-regarded artist who was to join the German Communist Party. Ludwig Roselius was a successful businessman who had made a fortune from his invention of decaffeinated coffee. What was it about the revolutionary climate following World War I that induced three such different personalities to collaborate in the production of a slim volume of poetry—entitled Gott in Mir—about the indwelling of the divine within the human? Gossman's study situates the poem in the ideological context that made the collaboration possible: pantheism, Darwinism, disillusionment with traditional liberal values, theosophy and völkisch religions, and Lebensreform. The study outlines the subsequent life of the Princess who, until her death in 1993, continued to support and celebrate the ideals and heroes of National Socialism. Brownshirt Princess provides deep insight into the sources and character of the "Nazi Conscience", and is invaluable reading for anybody interested in understanding German society during the inter-war and Nazi periods. The University Committee on Research in the Humanities and Social Sciences, Princeton University, has generously contributed towards the publication of this volume.

Russia’s attack on Ukraine has sent shockwaves across Europe and the world. While the current war is a geopolitical turning point, it remains unclear whether it will trigger a quantum leap forward for European defence policies and for the role of the European Union as a security provider. This Report investigates whether we can expect a further convergence of European strategic cultures, and on collaboration among Europeans to generate the required military capabilities and integrate their forces. Most importantly, it finds that the timely implementation of the EU’s Strategic Compass will be a decisive test to establish whether Europeans are rising to the challenge of taking more responsibility for their security and defence.

Criminal Careers follows the lives and criminal behaviours of 2,397 people in Poland who as juveniles committed a crime and received a form of punishment from the juvenile court between the late 1980s and the year 2000. Through combining quantitative and qualitative research, their criminal careers, the differences between men and women, risk factors, and reasons for nondesistance are analysed. Uniquely, the authors have used an extensive database of former juveniles, in which as many as 40% were women. This book therefore makes a comparison between women and men in terms of their future life paths. Additionally, the researched group consisted of teenagers from two different periods: the 1980s (the transition generation) and 2000 (the millennial generation), which in the context of Central and Eastern European countries means that they entered adulthood in completely different realities. These differences are therefore also explored in depth within the book. By focusing on Poland, the book provides a different perspective to criminal career research, which is generally limited to a few countries in Western Europe and the United States. The book will be of great interest to academics and students who are developing their own research in the fields of criminal careers, juvenile delinquency, and antisocial behaviours by young people. It will also appeal to professionals, including juvenile judges, probation officers, staff in correctional facilities and social rehabilitation institutions, social workers and employees of nonprofit organisations that support juveniles, people in crisis, and prisoners or exprisoners.

Le brutal décès de Dominique Kalifa, le 12 septembre 2020, a été un choc inattendu pour ses proches, ainsi que pour ses collègues, lecteurs et étudiants. Professeur d'histoire du xixe siècle à l'université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, auteur d'une œuvre importante et largement discutée en France et à l’étranger, Dominique Kalifa a laissé une empreinte marquante, tant par ses livres et ses enseignements que par son inventivité méthodologique et son charisme personnel.Conçu comme un hommage scientifique et amical, cet ouvrage rassemble 31 contributions, la plupart présentées lors du colloque organisé en Sorbonne (9-11 décembre 2021) dont ce volume rassemble et enrichit les actes. Sous la plume d’historiennes et d’historiens de plusieurs générations et de plusieurs pays, ce livre propose un portrait de Dominique Kalifa à travers la présentation et l’exploration de son œuvre et de ses sujets de prédilection.On y discute donc de la notion d’imaginaire social ; on s’interroge sur les limites chronologiques du xixe siècle ; on réfléchit à ce que les historiens peuvent tirer des images et des sons. On y parle surtout d’enquête et de crime, d’amour et de chrononymes, de mauvais garçons et de jeunes libérées. De Marseille au Mexique en passant par l’Italie et le Japon, on croise La Joconde, La grande illusion et les Peaky Blinders. Et plane sur l’ensemble l’ombre de Fantômas.
