This paper deals with the Korean welfare reform carried out due to the extremely unstable societal atmosphere, caused by the 1997 economic crisis. Introduction of the National Basic Livelihood Security Act and expansion of the coverage of social insurance are characterized as the projected reform. Nevertheless, the newly introduced public assistance program and the social insurance schemes still have room for improvement. For example, social insurance schemes had provided a protective umbrella in favor of regular workers, but it did not do the same for temporary contract-based workers or the self-employed. The government's efforts have not been sufficient to overcome these problems. This paper suggests some measures to resolve problems still existing in the Korean welfare system today.

This paper investigates the practices whereby the subject, in an organisational context, carries out systematic practices of self-discipline and becomes a calculative self. In particular, we explore the techniques of conduct developed by management accountants in a French carmaker, which adheres to a neoliberal environment. We show how these management accountants become calculative selves by building the very measurement of their own performance. The organisation thereby emerges as the cauldron in which a Homo liberalis is forged. Homo liberalis is the individual capable of constructing for him/her the political self-discipline establishing his/her relationship with the social world on the basis of measurable performance. The management accountants studied in this article prefigure the Homo liberalis in the self-discipline they develop to act in compliance with the organisation’s goals.

Straipsnyje nurodomos išplėstinės teisinio regulia­vimo, sietino su darbuotojų teisių pažeidimu, priė­mus 1997 m. Lenkijos baudžiamąjį kodeksą, ribos. Analizuojama Lenkijos Respublikos baudžiamojo kodekso 218 straipsnio 1 paragrafe reglamentuotos nusikalstamos veikos sudėties subjekto problemati­ka, darbuotojo teisės, kylančios iš darbo ir sociali­nės apsaugos teisinių santykių, kaip kodifikuoto ir nekodifikuoto teisinio reguliavimo išraiška. Straips­nyje nurodoma, kad dauguma Lenkijos Respublikos darbo kodekse įtvirtintų darbuotojų teisių – konstitu­ciniai principai, taip pat principai, kylantys iš tarp­tautinių sutarčių; socialinės apsaugos teisės aktai yra nekodifikuoti. Taip pat analizuojama, ar darbuotojų šeimos nariai įgyja teisinę apsaugą, numatytą Len­kijos Respublikos baudžiamojo kodekso 218 straips­nio 1 paragrafe.Lyginant ankstesnį ir dabartinį teisinį regulia­vimą nurodoma, kad nusikalstamos veikos, re­glamentuotos BK218 straipsnio 1 paragrafe, su­bjektas yra nebe asmuo, atsakingas už įdarbinimą įmonėje, bet asmuo, kuris atlieka konkrečius dar­bo ir socialinės apsaugos teisės srities veiksmus; autorė straipsnyje neigiamai vertina Lenkijos bau­džiamojo įstatymo numatytą darbuotojų teisinės apsaugos reguliavimą, nes jame nėra reglamentuo­ta kompensacija už žalą, padarytą kaltais asmenų, padariusių Lenkijos Respublikos baudžiamojo įstatymo 218 straipsnio 1 paragrafo dispozicijoje nurodytą veiką, veiksmais. The present article focuses on the issue of mischievous or persistent infringing upon the employee’s righ­ts, resulting from labour relations or from the social insurance, on the ground of the Penal Code of 1997. As the range of the analyses conducted is limited, special attention was put to the subject – matters of protection and the subject of infringing upon the employee’s rights offence from art. 218 § 1 of the Penal Code2.

<p>The zombie is a significant cultural figure which is represented and produced as being symptomatic of and relevant to contemporary concerns about death and dehumanization. This thesis will focus on the ways that death and dehumanization are changing and being negotiated within popular cultural representations and discourses regarding zombies, particularly in Frank Darabont’s television series The Walking Dead. The thesis will consider the way in which the figure of the zombie is representative of issues and discourses that are indicative of a problematization of the category of the human, and the notion of the transcendental. This will involve an examination of the changing narratives of the body, with particular regard to consumerism and the insistence of the body as a major site of the truth and value of the self, in contrast to the horrifying bodily form of the zombie. The thesis will also examine the way that dehumanization is problematized in The Walking Dead, where the human/non-human distinction is shown to be increasingly precarious and difficult to sustain. Further, the thesis will examine how the zombie is represented as manifesting the collapse of identity, as agents become alienated from the social discourses, narratives and values which constitute and categorize the subject.</p>

Today it is possible to speak about a postmodern sociology. It is based on the number of provisions reflecting the general level of social and humanitarian knowledge as well the provisions formulated on the ground of the theoretical studies analysis on postmodernism performed. In its diverse manifestations the postmodern paradigm essentially turns into an independent cognitive and theoretical-ideological entity that influences mainly the development of the already existing sociological concepts and arises their new models or modalities. The mono-city is the element of the self-organising social being fabric that is the subject of social synergies. The cognitive and heuristic element of joining social, economic and political problems and the prospects for the development of single-tooth cities can be classified as "fractal". The social world consists of many things that are the processes of formation, and in fact are fractals. The degradation of modern Russia in the social, political and economic sense is an indicator of the destruction of single-tooth cities in the conditions of the modern socio-demographic structure within the framework of the postmodern "end of history".

Chapter 4 articulates more explicitly than the previous chapter the way resurrection beliefs in Vaughan’s poetry function as “critical theory” about selfhood, identity, and the social world. The chapter examines Vaughan’s devotional and religious “self-help” literature and Vaughan’s translation and expansion of a hermetic medical treatise. Vaughan’s immanent corporeal resurrectionist commitment to finding the “seeds” of resurrection leads him to posit an essential core of bodily life—the radical balsam—that seeks eternal life but that is sickened when it is penetrated and rewired by the social and historical world. The goal of Vaughan’s devotional writings and medicine alike is to rewire the self so that it reduces its investment in the historical and social world by having its life directed by the essential core, a move that is analogous to his poetic search for the seeds and signs of resurrection within himself his poetry (the subject of chapter 3). This vision anticipates Heidegger’s phenomenology and Bourdieu’s theory of habitus. Vaughan also describes a form of sexuality that anticipates Leo Bersani in imagining the body as socialized and yet as potentially unhinged from that social connectedness.

Micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) play a significant role in the economy. According to the European Commission data, the SME sector in 2018 represented 99.8% of all enterprises in Europe, and likewise in Poland, therefore it is vital to have access to information regarding this sector and its economic situation on the lowest possible level of aggregation. The aim of the study described in this paper is to assess as to what degree data collected in public registers in Poland, including the information compiled by the Social Insurance Institution (ZUS) register, can constitute a source of information about the situation and development of the SME sector at the local level. The paper presents the economic situation of the SME sector in Europe, and also a range of information collected in ZUS registers relating to micro enterprises (including the self-employed enterpreneurs), small and medium-sized enterprises. Information concerning the SME sector in Kujawsko-Pomorskie Voivodship as of December 2018 is used in the research. The results confirm that register data enables the assessment of the economic situation of micro, small and medium- sized enterprises at the level of gminas (municipalities, communes), as per the OECD recommendations to broaden knowledge about the condition of the sector at a local level.

RECOVERY OF UNDUE BENEFITS IN THE SOCIAL INSURANCE SCHEME — SELECTED ISSUESThe article refers to the selected issues of the recovery of undue benefits in the social insurance scheme. Initially, the subject matter of the analysis is the recent modification of the art. 84 of the Act of 13 October 1998 on the social insurance system. It is argued in the article that there are not per­suasive arguments why the recent change — introducing the limit for handing down adecision for the Polish Social Insurance Institution art. 84 [7a] of the Act on the social insurance system — does not relate to the contribution payer or the other persons enumerated in the art. 84 6 of the Act on the social insurance system. Furthermore, the paper analyses the notion of the undue benefit in the social insurance scheme and the issues of the instruction. In the article there are emphasized some questions referring to the explanatory proceedings conducted by the Polish Social Insurance Insti­tution ZUS and the issues of the relations between the art. 84 1 and 6 of the Act on the social insurance system. In the conclusion the article analyses the relations between the art. 84 of the Act on the social insurance system and the special regulations, i.e. art. 138 of the Act of 17 December 1998 on pensions from the Social Insurance Fund and art. 66 of the Act of 25 June 1999 on cash social insurance benefits in respect of sickness and maternity.
