The article is devoted to the problem, related to the personnel of the Galician military forces of WUPR formation in November and December of the year 1918. Being based on the rich historical data the conclusion has been made that on the territory of the WUPR during the first four months of its existence two general and a number of local partial mobilizations of male population were taken. It made possible for the Military Forces to be provided with human resources to a greater or lesser degree. The mobilization process as a complex of all necessary actions both in the center and periphery was not always well-organized, effective and well-planned, had certain differences in different districts, indicating a number of problems with readiness of men to defend the republic with arms as well as with their trining, equipment and use of recruits that was connected with state discipline violation, acute deficit of authority staff, improper work of the expected organs, their miscalculations and loss of control over the part of the Ukrainian territory, and the last but not the least the complexities of the state and military construction in the WUPR. With time and experience mobilizing structures that lacked professional training and responsibility fulfilled their tasks at the more or less satisfactory level resulting in the number of Military Forces of not less than 11-12 thousand members. At the same time negative phenomena connected with the work of state structures as to organization and conducting of the forced mobilization of men to the troops at the level: center – military region – military district – community. Lack of the patriotic learning of the adults also produced its negative effect. Avoiding mobilization, deserting military forces were a usual thing. Key words: WUPR, State secretary of military affairs, community commissar, mobilization, recruits, training, organizational problem.

President M. Richard Nixon took office in the context that the United States was being crisis and deeply divided by the Vietnam war. Ending the war became the new administration's top priority. The top priority of the new government was to get the American out of the war. But if the American got out of the war and the Republic of Vietnam (RVN) fell, the honor and and prestige of the U.S will be effected. Nixon government wanted to conclude American involvement honorably. It means that the U.S forces could be returned to the U.S, but still maintaining the RVN government in South Vietnam. To accomplish this goal, Nixon government implemented linkage diplomacy, negotiated with the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV) in Paris and implemented "Vietnamization" strategy. The aim of the Vietnamization was to train and provide equipments for the RVN's military forces that gradually replace the U.S. troops, take responsibility in self-guarantee for their own security. By analyzing the military cooperation between the United States and the RVN in the implementation of "Vietnamization", the paper aims to clarify the nature of the "allied relationship" between the U.S and the RVN. It also proves that the goal of Nixon's Vietnamization was not to help the RVN "reach to a strong government with a wealthy economy, a powerful internal security and military forces", served the policy of withdrawing American troops from the war that the U.S could not win militarily, solving internal problems but still preserving the honor of the United States.

Abstract. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have strong traditions of musical bands that date back to princely and Cossack times. The task of their orchestras is to boost the morale of servicemen, to strengthen the power of the Ukrainian army by means of musical arts, as well as to perform at festive events (both at the local and the state level). However, despite the importance and diversity of creative and educational activities of the Military Orchestra Service of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, no comprehensive study of historical aspects of the functioning of music and military bands in national musicology has been conducted. The purpose of the article is to analyze the historical process of the formation of traditions of professional training of members of military musical bands at the turn of the XIX–XX centuries in the Ukrainian lands, as well as ceremonial and social functions of their concert activity. Research methodology. The overview is based on historical, structural and systemic methods. Results. Traditions of military orchestral training in Ukraine have deep historical roots and are based on multicultural principles. Traditions of performance and training in military musical bands of the Armed Forces of the independent Ukraine were formed on the basis of the three lines of continuation: princely and Cossack music­artistic formations and bands of the time of liberation movements (LUSR — Legion of Ukrainian Sich Riflemen, UIA — Ukrainian Insurgent Army), which represent their direct national line; Russian military orchestras with the participation of Ukrainian specialists; and multinational Austrian and Polish military music bands in Ukrainian territories. All of them together formed the basis on which the Ukrainian military and musical tradition was based, absorbing all the most relevant and productive aspects of the experience gained. Novelty. The activity of centers in which members were trained for existing military orchestral groups in the Ukrainian lands, as well as ways in which such training was performed, and the development of professional training of musicians were considered. Practical significance lies in the consideration of prospects for further detailed study of the functioning of separate bands, their repertoire, instruments, ceremonial and social functions, achievements of particular individuals in the field of performance, pedagogy and conducting. Conclusions. In the activity of military orchestras in the Ukrainian lands at the turn of the XIX–XX centuries we can see a combination of military­ceremonial and social palace­concert functions, wide involvement of all segments of the society in concert touring, which completely dictates the rich repertoire. From LUSR schools and guilds, professional training of musicians was gradually transformed into the activities of specialized training units at the military formations, cadet schools and trumpet schools, institutions at music societies and professional music training in conservatories.

The article is devoted to the problem of professional development and career development of officers of the armed forces, other troops and military formations. The relevance of this problem is due to the rapidly changing conditions of the military-pedagogical environment. At present traditional forms and methods of professional training cannot fully meet the demand of military personnel for the formation of self-development, self-actualization and self-realization skills. In this regard the author raises the question of the need to find new approaches and views on the process of improving professional training, the result of which should be the readiness of officers to build, design and develop a military career. The author suggests using coaching, the methodology of which is focused on the disclosure of professional and personal potential and the awakening of the activity of officers as promising forms and methods of military professional training. The concepts of «profession-oriented army coaching» and «army coach» are clarified. It is emphasized that the technology of coaching is new for the military sphere and requires substantial and technical adaptation to the army reality. In this work the author presents the concept of profession-oriented army coaching, taking into account the ideas of the acmeological approach, the military specifics and the architecture of the coaching process. The goals, objectives,principles, directions and conditions for the implementation of coaching in the army environment are defined. The author comes to the conclusion that in the army environment, the coaching and acmeological approaches have similar views, combining the search for ways to maximize self-expression in the military profession and the optimal ways to organize professional activity to achieve success in the future. The concept of profession-oriented army coaching proposed by the author reflects the requirements for finding new approaches to the process of improving the professional training of military personnel, imposed by the modern training and combat process of the armed forces. The practical implementation of this concept became development and introduction of «Profession-oriented army coaching» teaching guide to the learning process of military universities of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The author sees the prospect of further work in the use of profession-oriented army coaching in the troops in organizing classes for the professional development of personnel.

O presente ensaio propõe uma reflexão sobre a dificuldade de acesso aos mecanismos de justiça e precariedade de defesa das camadas populares no Brasil frente a uma postura autoritária por parte das esferas de decisão personificadas pelo Poder Judiciário. Temos uma constituição democrática que garante direitos difusos, e coletivos, mas que na prática, quando falamos de direitos inerentes aos mecanismos processuais do uso do contraditório e da ampla defesa por exemplo, vimos que na prática são direitos que não se concretizam plenamente para ricos e pobres. A proposta do presente texto é mostrar que quanto maior é o grau de exclusão de um indivíduo, maior é seu distanciamento das garantias legais e constitucionais quando nos referimos aos mecanismos de defesa dentro do ordenamento jurídico formal, já que em regra é atendido por uma defensoria pública sobrecarregada, com poucos recursos e muitas vezes precárias condições para realizar uma defesa plena e irrestrita, como diz a norma. Ainda abordamos a herança autoritária dos períodos de ditadura e seus reflexos em práticas processuais retificando um procedimento violador de direitos e uma lei altamente seletiva e segregatória. Por fim nosso trabalho é fruto de pesquisa qualitativa e bibliográfica sendo concluído com um olhar voltado para a necessidade urgente de mudanças na formação dos profissionais do direito, humanizando-os. Quando assim acontecer teremos um sistema de justiça criminal que busque de fato justiça com equidade garantindo a todos os cidadãos brasileiros igualdade de armas na busca por uma decisão justa.      Cidadania.

We have a democratic constitution that insures diffuses rights, and collective, nevertheless in the practice, when we talk about rights inherent to the procedural apparatus' use of contradictory and the ample defense for example, we perceive that in the practice they are immaterialized rights to the rich and poor. The purpose of this text is to show that how bigger is the exclusion rate of an individual, the bigger will be the distance of the legal and constitutional insurances when we refers to the defense mechanisms within the formal legal order, since as a rule it's attended by an overwhelmed public defense with few resources and, oftentimes, precarious conditions to perform a full and unrestricted defense, as it says in the regulation. Furthermore, we approach about the authoritarianism heritage of the dictatorship period and its reflection in the processual practices rectifying a procedure that violates the rights and a law highly selective and segregationist. Lastly, our work is product of a qualitative and bibliographic research, concluding with a view towards the urgent necessity of change on the formation of the Law professionals, humanizing them. When this happens, there is a criminal justice system that effectively seeks justice with equality, guaranteeing all members of the Brazilian Justice System in the search for a just decision.Citizenship.

Ample defense.The history of research in the pedagogy course: Clues, Propositions and Legal Requirements Abstract From a historical review, this essay discusses the research element in Pedagogy courses from its genesis in 1939 until the promulgation of the National Curricular Guidelines for Pedagogy Courses in 2006. It is an essay produced through appreciation (KAUFMANN, 2013) as a support for the understanding of the discourses, which have different meanings. The Brazilian university was born in the 1930s, with vocation and nature for the practice of general culture, scientific research and professional training (DECREE 19.851 / 1931). The National Faculty of Philosophy, the place of origin of the Pedagogy course, also presented this vocation (DECREE-LAW No. 1,190 / 1931), but did not include the research in the curriculum of the course. This contradiction provoked a historical noise, so much so that, in 1962, research emerged as an optional discipline in the Pedagogy course (OPINION no. 251/1962), suffering interruption six years later, with the implementation of the military dictatorship. This interruption also became noisy until the 1980s, when, due to political openness and the movements of educators, the reflections and clashes about teacher education were resurfaced. The educators, through ANFOPE, materialized new formative proposals and conferred on the research, together with teaching and management, the condition of formative principle and course identity. The research was done legally with the DCN-CP (RESOLUTION No. 01/2006). Search. University. Course of Pedagogy.

Munitions are one of the most critical and sensitive assets in the military supply chain, and its supply in the battlefield can greatly affect the result of the war. Historical data show that military forces are often provided either too much or too little ammunition because of the lack of visibility. This paper introduces the Munitions Visibility Management System that contains two parts, an organizational system and a technological system. The former one is from the administrative angle to standardize and control, and the latter one is from the technological angle to integrate and implement technologies needed. It gives a new way in studying the management of munitions.

On 7 November 1961, a crucial date in modern Ecuadorian political history, Dr José María Velasco Ibarra, constitutional President of the Republic of Ecuador, was deposed from his high office and sought refuge in the Mexican Embassy. The apparent stability that had characterized the country's political life since 1948 was shattered. The pattern of politics since November 1961 is similar in many respects to that which occurred in the decades between the two World Wars. Coups d'état, dictatorships and military juntas are political phenomena common to both periods. The military intervention which to Velasco's dewnfall in 1961 re-established a convention which had been dormant since 1947.

No clearer testimony evidenced the social upheaval and shifting political landscape in Guatemala in February 1838 than the graphic narrative by the traveling United States' diplomat, John Lloyd Stephens. Recently arrived in the capital for the first time, Stephens witnessed the insurrectionary triumph of the military caudillo, Rafael Carrera, and his “tumultuous mass of half-naked savages, men, women, and children, estimated at ten or twelve thousand.” Stephens described how Carrera's indigenous followers, upon entering the abandoned plaza and within earshot of the terrified white elite shouted “Long live religion and death to foreigners!” Carrera's political uprising incited by religious concerns had laid siege to the power structure inherited from colonial times.
