Growing problem of inconsistency of the academic system of education with the new needs of society and individual, lack of existing structures of education contribute to the emergence of a different approach for the organization of educational activities, which is non-academic. As a philosophical phenomenon, it fully complies with the students' diverse interests and possibilities. Nonacademic education functions outside the academic education, free from strict rules and regulations, it focuses on specific educational requests of different social, professional, demographic groups.

The subject of this study is the characteristics of Polish law enforcement authorities in the fi eld of preventing and combating the crime of traffi cking in human beings. The author points out that, based on existing legal regulations in Poland, the foremost burden related to prevention and prosecution activities of this type of crime lies within the scope of duties of the prosecutor’s offi ce, the Police, and the Border Guard. Thus, the article is devoted to a concise description of the indicated entities in terms of their legal instruments which make it possible to effectively implement the tasks and duties imposed by law and regulations upon the institutions. In the author’s assessment, the key role in the system is played by the prosecutor, who is the only authority sanctioned to make decisions on initiating the investigation and entrusting its conduct in its entirety or the indicated scope to other authorities, primarily the Police or the Border Guard. The prosecutor’s special role also results from the fact of being solely entitled to draw up and support an indictment in court in cases involving traffi cking in human beings. Nevertheless, according to the author, in practice, the main responsibility to carry out procedural and operational activities in this category of cases lies with the Police and Border Guard. The author points out that, at present, the Polish law enforcement system has appropriate instruments, both at the legal and institutional levels, ready for the effective prevention of and combat against crimes of human traffi cking. However, bearing in mind that the phenomenon of human traffi cking has, in principle, a cross-border dimension, the article highlights the aspect of international cooperation between the relevant institutions established to detect and prosecute these crimes.


Allow me first of all to express my deep gratitude for this honour: to speak before the Royal Society, before Britain’s foremost scientists. Your President suggested to me that I speak about the organization of science in the Soviet Union. This is no easy task, because the organization of science cannot be considered apart from its development. Nor can one avoid making certain assessments of various scientific trends, and here there are always pitfalls. I must also ask you to excuse me in advance if I happen to lapse into some commonplace generalities about science and its significance, but so much has already been said on the subject that one can scarcely be original in dealing with it. Nevertheless, it is here that I shall begin. In our day we very often hear it said that in the twentieth century science has come to play a special role in the development of society and the role of the state in organizing science has been enhanced. For centuries science has been a motive force of progress, and in advanced countries governments have been at pains to found universities, which have been centres of learning. There is no doubt, however, that never before did the scope of research and the number of people occupied in it increase as rapidly as they are doing today. Man has realized that major technical advances nowadays depend on harnessing less and less conspicuous natural phenomena, hidden deeper and deeper from view.

This article explores the natural enlargement of English vocabulary of the subject field «cinematography», describes contemporary ways of word formation and their peculiarities in English cinema discourse. The following word formation patterns were viewed: affixation, composition, blending, shortening and derivational neologisms. Each pattern was illustrated by the examples from the corpus that comprises 1051528 words and from additional modern resources. The total amount of the analyzed material was 298 terms. A graphical representation of the results was given and a conclusion was drawn about the most productive word formation patterns, namely affixation (46% of the 5 word-building patterns) and shortening (28% of the 5 word-building pattern groups). The most frequent affixation patterns were the ones with -er / -or suffix (42% / 30% of all affixation patterns) and with pre- prefix (21% of all affixation patterns). The least frequent were derivational neologisms due to their highly specific character. The role of extra-linguistic factors influencing the changes of the studied terminology group is emphasized. The obtained results demonstrate dynamic development of the cinema terminology influenced by various linguistic and extralinguistic factors.

The relevance of the article is determined by the need to overcome the existing differences in understanding the subject area of the family studies in Russian sociology today. The aim of the article is a revision of subject boundaries and methodological problems of the family sociology. The novelty of the work is in identifying the externalist and internalist factors that are differentiating the sociological research methodology of marriage and family relations from it’s in other sciences. But currently, there is a tendency to overcome the cognitive one-sidedness of various disciplinary approaches in an attempt to create a comprehensive science of the family.

The fragility of the modern unstable world has created both theoretical and methodological crises, and opened up opportunities for discursive and politicalpragmatic transcending the boundaries of linear normative constructions of Modernity. The inclusion of the concepts of identity and identity politics paradigm in the interpretation of political reality, and in instrumental practice appropriate strategies and technologies that lead to improving the performance of scientific research, and at the same time – to the aggravation of the uncertainty and destructive due to the use of political practices, guided around them. The subject field of these concepts is diversified and fragmented, reflecting the multiplicity of referents and generating conceptual and political-instrumental competition. The aim of the research is to trace the theoretical response to changing reality, which is poorly described by the traditional institutional paradigm of political science and requires the incorporation of socio-cultural meanings, which then becomes a catalyst and legitimizing basis for certain political practices. The authors address the conceptual positions of the theories of protest identity (M. Castells) resentiment (F. Fukuyama), pseudo-politics (M. Lilla), politics of life (A. Giddens), tribes and new tribalism (M. Maffesoli) and retrotopia (Z. Bauman).

Being one of alternative forms of legal disputes resolution, mediation is an institution which is becoming more and more popular as its use increases statistically. In practice, mediation is used mainly in civil law disputes, however, the legislators have introduced normative solutions in almost every branch of law to enable the use of this solution if the parties so desire. One of the areas where mediation can be used is also real property disputes. The subject of those disputes will most often be issues related to the mutual performance of financial obligations, although they may also apply to administrative matters. A mediator will play a special role in resolving real property disputes. It is the mediation procedure, well-organized and properly conducted by the mediator, that might determine whether the parties would reach an agreement and make a settlement, or whether no agreement would be attainable. Therefore, it is of essence that mediation proceedings, particularly in real property disputes, are conducted by mediators who not only have conciliation skills, but also extensive legal knowledge, so as not to miss any chance for conflict resolution. Therefore, in the article, the authors drew attention to the essence of mediation, and in particular the role of a mediator in resolving real property disputes
