The purpose of this article is description of perception and valuation of animals by students from selected countries of Central and Eastern Europe. In the first part of article was presented the history of the relationship between human and animal. The theoretical part of text includes also reflections on the moral status of animals. In the second part of article was presented results of the research which was conducted by author in 2015. The subject of the researches was: “Environmental values in the awareness of the students of humanities and life sciences from the selected European countries”. The project was conducted based on the quantitative method. The sample was comprised 520 students. In the article proposes the following research problems: Does the perception of animals depend on the direction the respondents study? Does gender affect how respondents perceive animals? The questions and independent variables were nominal, and their analysis required the use of a chi-squared test to examine. On the base statistical calculations can be concluded that sex and faculty of study doesn’t differentiate respondent’s opinion about animals welfare. The lack of differences in opinions between respondents is explained by the fact that it is the result of specifics of cultural Central Eastern Europe, not of gender or field of study. Obtained conclusions are pushing for further research in this area.

The Subject

The article analyzes the scientific publication «Avgustin Voloshin – «the father of the Carpathian Ukrainian people» by the authors of S. V. Vidnyansky and N. N. Vegesha, well-known specialists in Ukraine on the history of the countries of Central - Eastern Europe and such a Central European region as Transcarpathia. Therefore, they are perfectly familiar with the material and know the subject of the research. In their opinion, the process of national revival of Transcarpathian Ukrainians in the 30s is associated with the personality of A. Voloshin as an educational, socio-political and statesman of the 20-th century. The authors of the book noted that the figure of A. Voloshin belongs to the great people of Transcarpathia and equates him with the personality of O. Dukhnovich, who devoted his life to the struggle for the better fate of his people and called on his compatriots to «put an end to deep sleep». The authors of the study described A. Voloshin’s personality in a new complex way and characterized his activities.

The Relationship

Bringing together empirical studies of former communist countries of Central and Eastern Europe, this Special Issue explores the relationship between censorship and self-censorship. All the cases under consideration share a history of state-led censorship. Importantly, however, the authors argue that journalism in the former Eastern bloc has developed features similar to those observed in many countries which have never experienced state socialism. This introduction presents the theoretical framework and the historical backgound that provide the backdrop for this Special Issue’s contributions, all of which take a journalist-focused angle.

The One

The article presents the painting of cities of Central and Eastern Europe in perspective of theory of multiculturalism. Laid on Eastern civilization borderland cities are culturally heterogeneous. At present, “heterogeneous city” in perspective of theory of multiculturalism includes at least several transitional categories (subcategories), such as: culturally diverse city, pluralist city or multicultural city. The author believes, that using such concepts and many others ought to be related to the possibility to refer to a coherent theory which needs to be formulated – a theory of multiculturalism. Theory of multiculturalism is, in fact, a theory of a state and an advanced integration process in a society being culturally diverse. Multicultural city is the one which is prepared to welcome multicultural society willing to live and work there, in structural, organizational and intellectual terms. In conclusions author suggests that the communities and local authorities of the cities being the subject of the research ought to face the necessity to accept great challenges aimed at constructing multicultural environment in their cities. Santrauka Straipsnyje piešiamas Vidurio ir Rytų Europos miestų paveikslas daugiakultūriškumo teorijos perspektyvoje. Rytų civilizacijos paribio miestai yra kultūriškai heterogeniški. Nūdien ,,heterogeniškas miestas‘‘ daugiakultūriškumo teorijos perspektyvoje apima mažiausiai keletą skirtingų tarpinių kategorijų (subkategorijų), tokių kaip kultūriškai skirtingas miestas, pliuralistinis miestas ir daugiakultūris miestas. Autorius tiki, kad tokių ir daugelio kitų konceptų vartojimas turėtų būti susietas su galimybe nurodyti nuoseklią teoriją, kuri turi būti suformuluota – su daugiakultūriškumo teorija. Iš tikrųjų ši teorija yra valstybės ir pažangaus integracijos proceso kultūriškai skirtingoje visuomenėje teorija. Daugiakultūris miestas – tai toks miestas, kuris pasirengęs sveikinti daugiakultūrę visuomenę, tikintis ten gyventi ir dirbti struktūrine, organizacine ir intelektualine prasmėmis. Išvadose autorius teigia, kad miesto bendruomenės ir vietinės valdžios kaip tyrimo subjektas turėtų būti neatsiejamas nuo būtinybės priimti didžiulius iššūkius, siekiant konstruoti daugiakultūres aplinkas miestuose.

Biologic Factors

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.

This chapter explains the process of peaceful change in Central and Eastern Europe following the demise of the Soviet system. It also explains the failure of peaceful change in the Balkans and some post-Soviet countries, such as the Ukrainian conflict in 2014. The chapter accounts for the conditions for peaceful change and for the variation between peaceful and violent change by the state-to-nation theory. The two independent variables suggested by the theory are the level of state capacity and congruence—namely the compatibility between state borders and the national identities of the countries at stake. Moreover, according to the theory, great-power engagement serves as an intervening variable and in some conditions, as explained in the chapter, may help with peaceful change.

The Relationship

In this article, the motives for voluntary work and work values in higher education contexts are examined in a cross-border region in Central Eastern Europe. Our goal is to find out what kind of relationship exists between different types of volunteering and work values among young people. In the theoretical section, we deal with the definition of volunteering in the education system, the types of and motives for students’ volunteering, and finally, the relationship between the work values and voluntary work of students. In the empirical section, we created cluster groups based on students’ motives for volunteering, and we examined differences among countries. Then we revealed the factor structure of the work values of students and analyzed the relationship between cluster groups and factors with variance analysis. Five cluster groups were identified: “careerists with postmodern features,” “unmotivated,” “highly motivated,” “volunteers in an anti-volunteering climate,” and a “helping new type volunteers” group. There were only slight differences among countries, as most respondents are characterized by mixed motivations. An interesting result is that the most frequent group is “the volunteers in an anti-volunteering climate” in all the countries examined, especially in Ukraine, so the culture of volunteering is not popular enough in this region of Central Eastern Europe. Regarding the relationship between work values and volunteering, we have found that these two fields (work values and volunteering) are closely related.

Islam And Democracy

With the expansion of Islamism, a wave of Islam phobia was launched by western Orientalists and intensified subsequent to September 11 Attacks. Theoretically, the subject of adaptation and compatibility or contrast between Islam and democracy has drawn the attention of academic circles. Using a comparative and analytical research procedure, the current article seeks to provide an answer to this question: In the area of Adaptation and Contrast Theories, what is the nature of the relationship between Islam and democracy? The research’s hypothesis is that: from Contrast perspective, adaptation between democracy and Islam is not possible due to ontological and epistemological differences. In contrast, given the existing rational and democratic potentials within the framework of genuine Islamic fundamentals, democratic empirical examples such as democratic attitudes and demands in Islam world and democratic governance in the Middle East countries and Islam world, adaptation oriented parties believe in the existence of contextualized democracy within the framework of Islam. Using a critical reappraisal, it must be noted that, in spite of some deficits, Adaptation is more tenable, while Contrast and Essentialism are not sufficiently tenable due to some causes including failure to make a distinction between Islam’s basic fundamentals and history of Islam, the performance of authoritarian regimes and radical Islamists, universalization of liberal-secular democracy discourse and its combination with western ethnic chauvinism and propaganda of Islam phobia and defamation to Islam.
