The purpose of this article was to identify significant differences in the hunting management process in Poland and selected European countries in the context of their impact on the preservation of biodiversity and the implementation of the idea of sustainable development. The goal was achieved through the analysis of hunting management in selected European countries through the prism of the assumptions made by Aldo Leopold in 1933. Based on the analysis carried out, it was found that hunting management in relation to Leopold’s postulates has best been undertaken by France. Moreover, the wild game management process should be actively implemented and based on the still up-to-date, universal postulates of Leopold, which can be treated as a model approach.

Zusammenfassung. In der sportwissenschaftlichen Forschung besteht Uneinigkeit darüber, wie die Aufgabe von Schiedsrichtern im Sport angemessen zu beschreiben sei. Die vorliegende Untersuchung zeigt, dass Schiedsrichter als Game-Manager und nicht als bloße Instanzen der Regelverwaltung betrachtet werden müssen. Hierzu werden die Daten von 163 Schiedsrichtern herangezogen, darunter sämtliche Spielleiter der 1. Bundesligen Basketball, Handball und Eishockey. In weiteren explorativen Analysen zeigt sich, dass Bundesligaschiedsrichter häufiger als niedrigklassig agierende Schiedsrichter hoch qualifizierten Berufstätigkeiten nachgehen, und dass die berufsbezogene Leistungs- und Führungsmotivation von Bundesligaschiedsrichtern höher als die anderer Schiedsrichter ist. Es wird argumentiert, dass sich diese qualifizierenden Personeneigenschaften gleichermaßen im Leistungsumfeld Beruf, wie auch im Leistungsumfeld Spielleitung günstig auswirken. Die erhaltenen Ergebnisse zum Schiedsrichter als Spielleiter sind insbesondere im Hinblick auf zukünftige sportpsychologische Analysen von Schiedsrichterentscheidungen bedeutsam.

Results of privatization campaign in 1990’s continue to meet strong opposition from a very considerable part of Russian people and authorities actually refuse to consider the rights of private owners legitimate and not subject to violation. One of the reasons for this, besides historical tradition, is a specific nature of Russian privatization of 1990’s. The article brings to discussion a set of measures aimed at overcoming its negative consequences. While insisting on the need to honor all previous government obligations and commitments, the paper proposes a one-time special tax (windfall tax) to be levied on those who benefited most from privatization deals that were not just and fair, and special rules to be set for the use and sale of economic assets of national importance. The author also considers possible ways to legitimize private property, as well as chances to achieve а broad public consensus on this issue in Russia.

This article explores the sources of legitimacy of private property in the means of production in Ukraine. The conceptualization of legitimacy of private property was made by analyzing theoretical approaches to the study of the foundations of private property relations in Western countries. The application of these approaches tests economic utilitarian, psychological, and sociocultural explanations of legitimacy of large and small private enterprises and private land in the process of activation of post-communist transition of Ukrainian society. The basic hypothesis was that the process of legitimation of private property in the means of production proceeds by uniting utilitarian and psychological adaptation with sociocultural agreement of ideological attitudes. This hypothesis was verified with the help of created legitimacy indices by comparison of linear regressions and data of the Institute of Sociology of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) of Ukraine for 2013 and 2017. The results indicate that the hypothesis has been held true only concerning legitimacy of small private enterprises. They have acquired a moderate extent of legitimacy owing to the fact that besides the factors of adaptation, social recognition has increased at the expense of people who support the multiparty system and the liberal and mixed methods of regulation of the economy. In contrast, the existence of large private enterprises and private land has not acquired the corresponding sociocultural foundation.

For the most part, research and policymaking on urban gardening have focused on community gardens, whether in parks, vacant lots, or other public land. This emphasis, while important for many Midwestern cities, can obscure the significance of privately owned land such as front yard and back yard and their crucial connections with gardening on public land. In this case study, we examine how policies and practices related to gardening and the management of green space in two Midwestern cities exceed narrow visions of urban agriculture. The article explores the cultivation of vacant lot gardens and private yards as two modes of property in similar Midwestern contexts and argues that the management of green space is about more than urban agriculture. Instead, we show how urban gardening occurs across public/private property distinctions and involves a broader set of actors than those typically included in sustainability policies. Gardening also provides a key set of connections through which neighbors understand and practice sustainability in Midwestern cities.
