This chapter focuses on how Albert Hirschman presented that the image of the economy as a fully competitive system where changes in the fortunes of individual firms are exclusively caused by basic shifts of comparative advantage is certainly an inaccurate representation of the real world. In associations such as the family, the state, and religious, civic, and professional institutions, loyalty dominates and often trumps exit in favor of voice. “Exit” means leaving behind a product, a service, a firm, or a country to seek others, whereas “voice” refers to the choice to seek influence and have a say in determining the future quality of products or institutions. The chapter shows how Hirschman knew about exit, the search for voice, and the conflicts of loyalties first-hand through his eventful life and travels.

The existing legislation determines the education as "an integral and focused process of teaching and upbringing, which represents a socially important value and shall be implemented so as to meet the interests of the individual, the family, the society and the state". However, even in this part, the meaning of the notion ‘socially significant benefit is not specified and allows for a wide range of interpretation [2]. Yet the more inconcrete is the answer to the question – "who and how should determine the interests of the individual, the family and even the state?" The national doctrine of education in the Russian Federation, which determined the goals of teaching and upbringing, the ways to attain them by means of the state policy regulating the field of education, the target achievements of the development of the educational system for the period up to 2025, approved by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 4, 2000 #751, was abrogated by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of March 29, 2014 #245 [7]. The new doctrine has not been developed so far. The RAE Academician A.B. Khutorsky believes that the absence of the national doctrine of education presents a threat to national security and a violation of the right of citizens to quality education. Accordingly, the teacher has to solve the problem of achieving the harmony of interests of the individual, the family, the society and the government on their own, which, however, judging by the officially published results, is the task that exceeds the abilities of the participants of the educational process.  The particular concern about the results of the patriotic upbringing served as a basis for the legislative initiative of the RF President V. V. Putin, who introduced the project of an amendment to the Law of RF "About Education of the Russian Federation" to the State Duma in 2020, regarding the quality of patriotic upbringing [3]. Patriotism, considered by the President of RF V. V. Putin as the only possible idea to unite the nation is "THE FEELING OF LOVE OF THE MOTHERLAND" and the readiness for every sacrifice and heroic deed for the sake of the interests of your Motherland. However, the practicing educators experience shortfalls in efficient methodologies of patriotic upbringing, which should let them bring up citizens, loving their Motherland more than themselves. The article is dedicated to solution to this problem based on the Value-sense paradigm of upbringing educational dynasty of the Kurbatovs [15].

In this interview, Michel Guérard elaborates his ideas on the education and training of chefs for a future when cuisine will be increasingly focused on health and cooks will need to know more about the relationships between food and disease prevention. At the same time, nutritionists will need to develop a better understanding of cooking. Guérard disagrees with commentators, such as Michael Steinberger, who conclude that French cuisine is in decline; in his view, this conclusion is exaggerated and the quality of products such as cheese and wine has actually improved. He expresses optimism for the future of French cuisine, which he believes will be a simple and honest “cuisine naturaliste.”

There has been a tendency in recent years for equity markets and the general public to move their interest away from resource development. The focus on gas development has also suffered, as attention has shifted to the so-called ‘new economy’.Gas development in Western Australia is more than ever a jewel in the future economic crown of the State and nation.Gas development offers a real opportunity based on real economics and real comparative advantage. This argument is supported by analysis of the comparative strengths and weaknesses influencing the development of gas-based projects in Western Australia.The paper also identifies where and how this development might occur.

Marriage is the dream of every couple, where marriage is one of the highest forms of commitment in every individual relationship that makes love. In practice marriage is the dream of every couple to continue to be together to build a household. However, the couple's desire now becomes complicated when the marriage is difficult because of different religious beliefs. The difficulty of the legality of interfaith marriages in Indonesia becomes a polemic of interfaith couples in carrying out their marriage legally in the state or religion or even opposition faced with the family. Given this interfaith marriage today is still intensively carried out even though in practice it is difficult to implement and many problems will arise in the future. Indonesia is indeed known as a multicultural nation where differences in culture and religion are inevitable, one of which is the phenomenon of interfaith marriages now that Indonesia has five legitimate religions and streams of belief that are still developing in modern society. The state agency appointed to legalize the holy marriage is still a long-standing polemic for some couples who want to formalize their marriage. However, because they want to keep each of their beliefs, the state fully regulates marriages that require couples to marry with the same beliefs and religions, whereas in practice citizens are free to make their own choices and have the right to be happy in determining their life choices, including in terms of marriage and determining their life partners each

Using a large sample of Spanish organizations, in this chapter, the authors empirically reveal the state of health of the Spanish software industry in terms of software process improvement, both in the monitoring of working methodologies and the usage of tools, and they provide the necessary information in order to understand the real skills and efforts to improve the quality of products and end-user services. Having found that a significant number of organizations do not have specific training programs or their own software quality department, it is an essential point of departure for professionals to increase awareness of the need to implement quality processes to improve the competitiveness of the company. The state of knowledge of the methodologies aimed at quality and existing national and international standards shows that these are barely known by professionals in Spanish companies, especially among SMEs and micro-enterprises. However, most Spanish small businesses and large enterprises think the CMMI model best suits their needs, both business and technical. This growing interest is the main reason behind the fact that Spain has almost 38% of the European CMMI certifications, including 22 new certifications since 2010, and is the fourth country in the world in terms of number of CMMI appraisals.

The publication represents the first fragment of the large comparative study, directed to the investigation of factors which negatively influenced to the state of health and emotional sphere of students from Chemical Faculty (CF, 102 persons) and economic (EF, 68 persons) faculties of the same university. For this goal, the genetical, psychological and sociological investigation was included into the study. The block of standard psychological scales, detecting levels of expression of social adoption, alarm, overfatigue and interpersonal relations as well as the subjective welfare scale, are used for anonymous psychological testing. For the analysis of the conduct of life, state of health and influence of socioeconomic factors the special card-interview is created. For the levels of genomic instability evaluation, the micronuclear test on the buccal epithelium cells is used. We found out that students from CF had 3 times more level of stress expression than students from EF. We detected the two significant factors, negatively influenced to emotional sphere: the student’s relation to their future profession and the duration of the contact with chemical compounds during laboratory studies. In the latter case, in addition to correlation with category “faculty”, the dependence on time of duration (hours/week) of laboratory work is revealed. The influence of material prosperity and indicators of a conduct of life on the state of health and the emotional sphere of students aren’t revealed. As the relation to the future profession is proved as an essential factor of students’ quality of life and health, it is represented to be correct to reveal the true relation to the future profession during admission examinations by means of special psychological tests. Such approach can not only become base of a new technology of health protection during the training in higher schools, but also to increase the number of students who after release will work on the chosen specialty will allow increase.

Wspomnienie o profesorze Marianie Friedbergu wpisuje się w obchody 50-lecia jego śmierci. Podzielone zostało na dwie części. W pierwszej autorka przybliża postać i osiągnięcia naukowe Profesora ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem działalności w okresie okupacji i w czasach stalinizmu. Profesor Friedberg pełnił funkcję dyrektora Archiwum Aktów Dawnych Miasta Krakowa w latach 1939–1952, aż do włączenia tego archiwum do Archiwum Państwowego w Krakowie. Autorka wypunktowała jego bohaterską postawę w tych trudnych czasach przejawiającą się ciągłą walką o niedopuszczenie do rozproszenia zbiorów przez niemieckie władze archiwalne. Podkreśliła również wielkie zaangażowanie Profesora w kształcenie przyszłych polskich archiwistów. W drugiej części wspomnienia omówiona została bogata spuścizna naukowa Profesora i jego żony Marii Friedbergowej z Mazanków oraz materiały rodzinne w niej zawarte. Marian Friedberg (1902–1969). Life and legacy The memoirs of Professor Marian Friedberg are part of the events to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his death and are divided into two parts. In the first one, the author introduces the figure and scientific achievements of the professor with particular emphasis on his activities during the periods of occupation and Stalinism. Professor Friedberg was the director of the Krakow Town Archives of Former Records in the years 1939–1952, until the time it was integrated into the State Archives in Krakow. The author lists his heroic actions in those difficult times during the constant battle to prevent the collections from being broken up by the German archival authorities. She also emphasises the professor’s great engagement in shaping the future Polish archival workers. The second part discusses the rich scientific legacy of the professor and his wife, Maria Mazankówna-Friedbergowa, as well as the family materials contained in it.
