Abstract A city’s public spaces ought to meet a number of requirements to serve their main purpose, that is to foster public life. They need, for instance, to answer people’s needs, fulfil certain social functions, and let people use their basic rights, among them the most important right of access. In Katowice, one of the most prominent examples of the regeneration of public spaces is now the Culture Zone. The aim of this paper is to discuss the development of social functions in the area mentioned, a fine example of the post-industrial heritage of Upper Silesia. Applying some of the qualities of public space identified in the theories adopted, the paper discusses how the Culture Zone [in Polish: Strefa Kultury] fulfils the above-mentioned demands and requirements. Is it accessible? Does it meet the need for comfort? Does it function as a leisure space? By referring to analyses and opinions presented in the literature and comparing them with the results of the author’s own empirical research, this article discusses the importance, opportunities, and shortcomings of the Culture Zone as a public space.

This essay examines official forms of governmental inquiry into the religious feelings of Muslim citizens. It identifies a series of normative problems with currently available investigative practices in that regard. Government can push too far in its investigations of religious practitioners’ feelings, and various forms of investigation, currently allowed under liberal-democratic legal codes, appear to permit violations of citizens’ basic rights. The essay offers grounds for restructuring conditions under which government officials may permissibly question Muslims about their emotions and sentiments; for rethinking how far government functionaries may proceed in their examinations; and supporting a more general right of citizens to refuse to disclose their feelings to government officials, when questioned about them.

Specific Position

In this paper the position of victim in criminal procedure for organized crime is analyzed. Through recent changes of our criminal procedure law, the special type of procedure is created in relation to organized crime, with inclusion of large number of specific criminal procedure norms. These new solutions contribute to the protection of victims/witnesses, although there are still more space for the improvement. Legislative body still needs to overcome deeply embedded attitude that the witnesses and victims are the exclusive source of evidence, or, in other words, that the witness testimony is only way to find out evidence information. The victim has to be treated at the first place as a person to whom specific position in criminal procedure, with special regard on the protection of her basic rights, should be guaranteed.
