The problem of emigration to Ukraine of a significant number of Belarusian citizens due to the events of the Belarusian anti-Lukashenko revolution of dignity and freedom, which began in this country in August 2020 after the presidential election, is discussed in the article. It is noted that at the beginning of 2021 the number of those who fled to Ukraine, hiding from repression and persecution by the Belarusian authorities, was already more than 75 thousand people. In the future, the number of Belarusian refugees is projected to increase to 100-120 thousand people by 2021. It is unknown yet which of these people will join the Belarusian Diaspora in Ukraine, which before these events was the second largest Diaspora in Ukraine. And who considers Ukraine only as a territory of transit further to the East, or the West, for example, to Poland. In connection with these events, the Ukrainian state and society faced a series of challenges, problems and threats, to which it will be necessary to find adequate answers. In particular, the authors of the article consider unjustified some warnings expressed by patriotic Ukrainian citizens about the possible growth of pro-Russian sentiment in Ukraine due to the arrival and settlement of Belarusian refugees here. It seems logical that people with pro-Russian sentiments would rather immigrate to Russia than come to Ukraine. It is expected that a significant problem for the newly arrived Belarusians may be the understanding and establishment of dialogue and contacts with the "old" Belarusian Diaspora in Ukraine because of its commitment to Lukashenko and sympathy for Russia. It is concluded that Belarusian citizens, active participants in the Belarusian revolution, can become a useful enzyme for accelerating the reform processes in Ukraine and will contribute to further democratic and pro-European movement in this area.

The review of Vladimir Gorbulin's book "How Russia Will Defeat in the War of the Future" analyzes the main theoretical and practical tasks set by the author before the Ukrainian state and society, aimed at overcoming such a strong and extremely dangerous enemy for independent Ukraine as Putin's Russia. Academician Gorbulin's book immediately became a bestseller in Ukraine and gained notoriety abroad. It is one of the most serious studies of the problems facing the Ukrainian state and nation today, as well as a de facto "road map" for Ukraine in the war against Russia, which can create conditions for victory and independence and freedom from the sinister aggressor - the Kremlin neo-empire.

<p><em>The formation of character is a discourse that continues propagated by the government of Indonesia today. This is done because the condition of the nation's degraded in many areas of life. Various types of crimes such as rape, violence, theft, fights between students, corruption, and others allegedly happened as a result of the moral degradation of the Nation. Character education is the only hope which is able to restore the values of goodness and glory of the nation. So therefore, children as the future generation should be provided with character education from the beginning.</em></p><p><em>Format of character education which is given to children, therefore, must be clear and precise objectives.

The paper addresses the issues of changing the structure and content of the system of higher education in response to requests coming from the state and society. As it is argued, one of the most effective management tools for universities is networking. In practice this means that educational institutions should cooperate in order to find solutions to common tasks and goals and draw on various resources (i.e. material, informational and technological, scientific etc.) making them available to all participants. The paper highlights the contradiction between the future specialists’ need for innovational technologies and the impossibility to fulfill it in the rapidly changing settings of the modern society.

In 2017, the publication Contemporary Military Challenges entered its nineteenth year of existence, which reminds us of an important anniversary coming up in 2018. The first issue was published in September 1999 under the name of Bulletin of the Slovenian Armed Forces. From then until the end of last year, 18 volumes of the publication included 438 articles by 564 authors. There were 289 authors from the Slovenian Armed Forces and 48 authors from the administrative part of the Ministry of Defence; 161 authors were from different institutions and 66 authors from abroad. This year, we will focus on topical issues, which will, hopefully, be of interest to our readers and will motivate you to open discussions, reflect upon and perhaps even write about your views on the emergence of new security as an imperative for the future. This year's second issue titled Veteran organizations – are they even needed will be released in English. Since this topic has never before been discussed in our publication, it is perhaps time that we speak about it and share experiences of different countries. This year’s third issue titled Migrations and security on the Old Continent will also be published in English. It will be dedicated to the unstable Middle East, terrorism in Europe and national experiences with migration. Special focus will be put on the migration flows from autumn 2015 to spring 2016 as well as to the Europe's response to them. The title of the fourth issue will be Security forces of the future. It will focus on the way forward in ensuring safety. Some of the topical issues will certainly include the new old ways of manning the armed forces, achieving capability targets and international operations and missions. This year also marks 20 years since members of the Slovenian Armed Forces have joined an international operation for the first time. It was Operation Alba in Albania. Since then, they have participated in numerous operations and missions throughout the world. The 2017 will undoubtedly also be marked by the findings of the 2016 Strategic Defence Review, and the tasks arising from it. The chapter referring to the strengthening of the defence capability and resilience defines the primary objective of further development of the defence system and defence capacity of the Republic of Slovenia, which arises from the findings of the strategic review. The authors of the document classified them as follows: provision of the country’s defence capabilities, enhancing the resilience of the state and society to security threats, improving the preparedness and sustainability of the Slovenian Armed Forces, and achieving of common goals and commitments in the framework of the EU and NATO. It is our firm belief that the articles in this issue of the Contemporary Military Challenges titled Security as an imperative can contribute to the goals set out in the Strategic Defence Review.

The role of conflict has been integral to the state and nation formation in Turkey since the inception of the Republic in 1923. Faced with the twin tasks of democratic legitimacy and maintaining control, or security and civil-centered politics, the state has historically opted for authority and control. Ironically enough, while Republican politics has emphasized unity and uniformity to limit diversity and conflict caused by class, ethnicity and Islam, the result has been the opposite. So much so that the present conflict between the state and the Kurdish Workers' Party (PKK), which has cost nearly fourteen thousand lives since 1984, has reached an abysmal point: “in the end Turkey's victory may be a Pyrrhic one. If the conflict continues without exploration of other avenues, it will most likely jeopardize Turkey's relations with Europe and the United States” (Brown 1995, p. 128). Moreover, it has become increasingly clear that Kurdish nationalism is not just a simple expression of discontent and opposition but also a challenge to the very premises on which the Turkish nation-state has been built. In that sense, the resolution of the Kurdish “problem” is of concern not only to the Kurdish population of the Republic, but involves the future shape and substance of the Turkish state and society in their entirety as well.

Chinese political reform in the 1980s was concentrated largely on reversing many of the affects of the Cultural Revolution, such as the "personality cult" and the attitutde of "what I say goes." and improving efficiency through streamlining admininstration and delegating power to the lower levels. The reforms of that decade demonstrate a certain passivity and vacillation. In comparison, the political reforms enacted in the 1990s tended to be theoretically conscious, entailing a progressive advancing political reform, which promoted change at many levels, concerning relationship between micro and macro, central and local, and state and society. Autonomy, internationality, and progressiveness were the key characteristics of Chinese political reform in the 1990s. In the near future, political reform in China will begin storming age-old fortifications, and only through uninterrupted institutional innovation can China effectively avoid a cataclysin fron am "explosion of participation."

This article discusses the composition of the new 2009 Parliament in Kuwait and compares changes in its composition with the outgoing one, dealing with factors which contributed to the historic victory of women and the demise of the organized political blocs. It traces Kuwait's unique pioneering experience in democracy in the region and sheds light on how economic development and oil politics have altered the historical dynamics between state and society. It concludes by forecasting the future malaise of Kuwaiti politics if changes are not made and provides feasible recommendations to possibly overhaul the system or even amend the Constitution.
