The conference Global and Regional Governance - European Perspective and Beyond (Wroclaw, Poland, 24-26 May 2007) was a joint event of the Central and East European International Studies Association and the GARNET Network of Excellence established with the European Union support. It was organised by the Institute of International Studies, University of Wroclaw. This book, inspired by the conference`s theme, focuses on economic aspects of the contemporary world. The authors consider relations between multilateralism and the new regionalism micro and macro perspectives of governance and the regulations and institutions of governance. They also analyse how transition countries adapt to the global economy as well as to the challenges of European economic space. I believe that the publication will make a significant contribution to academic discussion of global and regional governance. Elżbieta Stadtmuller, Executive director for the conference

Feliks Koneczny was a Polish Catholic historian, who lived between 1862 and 1949 and spent most of his life in Kraków, Poland. Koneczny was a prolific writer, producing his most important works towards the end of his life. Since he disagreed with the Marxist claim that the class struggle is the motor of history and instead he saw the role of morality in history, he was condemned to oblivion in the communist period. In the 1970-1980s his major hitherto unpublished works appeared in Britain, to be reprinted again in Poland after the fall of communism, where they have gained some recognition among Catholic thinkers, although they are ignored by the mainstream academia. Koneczny worked out a theory of civilizations that is somewhat akin to the views of Samuel Huntington. He disagreed with cyclical theories of history that compared civilizations to biological organisms having a time of youth, growth, decline and death. Some ancient civilizations, such as the Chinese or Jewish are thriving and show no signs of senility. All attempts to view history according to a deterministic objective process deny spiritual freedom and impose an a priori vision of reality. A view of history must be a posteriori, based on facts. When towards the end of his life, Koneczny asked whether there is any order in history analogous to that perceived in the natural sciences, he was not searching for some objective historical course leading inevitably to progress.

Independence Regained Freedom Endangered. The Battle for Warsaw 1920 is a richly illustrated book celebrating the anniversary of the Battle for Warsaw in August 1920 Poland s most definitive victory of the 20 th Century. The publication presents significant moments of the Polish-Bolshevik War and, most importantly, its climax the Battle for Warsaw acknowledged as being the eighteenth decisive battle of the world. The book relates not just the most important military aspects of the war. It also paints a picture of the wide-ranging social and geopolitical background of the time, the international situation in which Poland found itself in 1920 (after regaining independence in 1918) and the attitude of its western allies to the war with Soviet Russia. The narrative comprises the words of both sides of the conflict, their state leaders and high commands, their rank and file soldiers, army volunteers and ordinary citizens from various walks of life: people of Warsaw, peasants, landowners, clerics and workers. The album follows a convention adopted and perfected for over 28 years by KARTA Publications. Important historical facts relating to unknown, untold and frequently difficult aspects of history are presented through extracts from source texts such as the diaries and memoirs of participants in given events, documentation and original pictorial matter from the period (photographs, posters, illustrations etc.).

Based on original empirical work conducted in Poland and the US, this book presents the results, insights, and interpretations of the relationship between social structure and personality. The work extends and goes beyond Kohn`s Class and Conformity (1969) and Kohn and Carmi Schooler`s Work and Personality (1983). The hallmark of this new study is innovative comparative methodology used in testing the hypothesis that `position in the social structure has generally similiar psychological effects in capitalist and socialist society.` Social Structure and Self-Direction is a thoughtful extension of the work cited above; it summarizes and interprets a corpus of earlier literature in the light of Kohn and Slomczynski`s new findings. It is an important addition to the literature on work, social class, personality, and social structure, and is essential reading for students of stratification and cross-national research. R. P. Mohan, Choice It is not often that one scientific discipline makes an original contribution to another. In this volume, representing the culmination of more than two decades of creative thinking and painstaking research, Melvin Kohn - together with his Polish colleague, Kazimierz Slomczynski - have accomplished nothing less.

Książka w języku angielskim. Rok 1920 - w ktorym na szalę postawiony zostat cały byt narodu - to rok największego w XX wieku polskiego zwycięstwa z zewnętrznym, bezwzględnym wrogiem. 85 lat temu Polacy masowo opowiedzieli się za Ojczyzną, a przeciw zagrazającej Europie ideologii. Polska samotnie stanęła na drodze bolszewizmu. Zwycięstwo pod Warszawą, było początkiem samodzielnie budowanej państwowości, odzyskanej po I wojnie swiatowej. Sukces Jozefa Piłsudskiego, jego wojsk, catego polskiego społeczeństwa, określił na wieLe lat bieg europejskich wydarzeń przed II wojną.Warto przypomnieć moment, gdy od postawy Polaków zależało nie tylko bezpieczeństwo, ale w nie mniejszym stopniu - dusza Zachodu.
