THE POTENTIAL IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON THE STRUCTURE OF CONSUMPTION EXPENDITURE BY POLISH HOUSEHOLDS: POTENCJALNY WPŁYW COVID-19 NA STRUKTURĘ WYDATKÓW KONSUMPCYJNYCH GOSPODARSTW DOMOWYCH W POLSCE
No full textThe aim of this study is to indicate the potential impact of COVID-19 on the situation of families in terms of their consumption structure, with particular emphasis on the demand for food products, which, despite the declaration of a pandemic, were available for purchase. The analysis took into account data on the budgets of households located in urban areas. The population of households was divided into subgroups taking into account the activity of the household members in the labour market.
Examining the consumption structure of families with a different degree of participation in the labour market, the study found that the greatest differences occur in the relative expenditures on food products. But there is a clear difference in the behaviour of families with one unemployed person depending on their gender. The consumption structure of households where the woman is out of work is clearly similar to the relative expenditure of households in which both adults work. When the man is unemployed, the structure of consumption becomes more similar to that of households in which both partners are unemployed.The aim of this study is to indicate the potential impact of COVID-19 on the situation of families in terms of their consumption structure, with particular emphasis on the demand for food products, which, despite the declaration of a pandemic, were available for purchase.

Poczucie koherencji i odporność rodzicielska a zaangażowanie rodziców dzieci ze specjalnymi potrzebami rozwojowymi we wczesne inicjacje czytelnicze : Empiryczne wskazania dla projektowania działań wspierających domowe środowiska czytelnicze
Get PDFBackground: Despite many empirical findings on the socioeconomic predictors of parental involvement in early reading initiations, there is still a lack of clear data on the psychological factors determining parental involvement in the development of children's language and reading skills.
Objectives: The research was aimed at recognizing the level of the sense of coherence and its components presented by the parents of children with special developmental needs, psychological resilience and its components such as knowledge of the child's characteristics, perceived social support and positive perception of parenthood, as well as declared involvement in early reading initiations, recognition of relationships between the variables examined and predictors of involvement of parents of children with special developmental needs in undertaking joint reading initiations with children in early and middle childhood.
Methodology: In the decryption-analytical research, the diagnostic survey method was used with the use of tools such as the Sense of Coherence Scale (SOC 29), the Parenting Resilience Elements Questionnaire (PREQ) and the Family Literacy Activities Inventory (FLAI). The study was conducted in a group of parents of children with special developmental needs (N=198) attending pre-school facilities and departments as well as early development support centers in the Mazowieckie and Dolnośląskie voivodeships.
Results: The obtained data indicate significant relationships between the sense of coherence and parental resilience and the involvement of parents in early reading initiations, and the mediating function of the positive perception of parenthood in the relation between the sense of coherence of parents and their involvement in early reading initiations.Tło: Mimo wielu ustaleń empirycznych w zakresie socjoekonomicznych predyktorów angażowania się rodziców w przebieg wczesnych inicjacji czytelniczych, wciąż brakuje jednoznacznych danych o czynnikach psychologicznych determinujących rodzicielskie zaangażowanie w rozwijanie umiejętności językowych i czytelniczych dzieci.
Cele: Badania ukierunkowane zostały na rozpoznanie prezentowanego przez rodziców dzieci ze specjalnymi potrzebami rozwojowymi poziomu poczucia koherencji i jego składowych, odporności psychicznej i jej składowych takich jak znajomość cech dziecka, odczuwane wsparcie społeczne i pozytywne postrzeganie rodzicielstwa, a także deklarowanego zaangażowania we wczesne inicjacje czytelnicze, rozpoznanie związków między badanymi zmiennymi oraz predyktorów zaangażowania rodziców dzieci ze specjalnymi potrzebami rozwojowymi w podejmowanie wspólnych inicjacji czytelniczych z dziećmi w okresie wczesnego i średniego dzieciństwa.
Metodologia: W realizowanych badaniach o charakterze dekryptywno-analitycznym zastosowano metodę sondażu diagnostycznego w wykorzystaniem narzędzi tj. Kwestionariusz Orientacji Życiowej (SOC 29), Kwestionariusz Elementów Odporności Rodzicielskiej (PREQ) oraz Inwentarz Rodzinnych Aktywności Związanych z Czytaniem i Pisaniem (FLAI). Badania przeprowadzono w grupie rodziców dzieci ze specjalnymi potrzebami rozwojowymi (N=198) uczęszczających do placówek i oddziałów przedszkolnych oraz ośrodków wczesnego wspomagania rozwoju na terenie województwa mazowieckiego oraz dolnośląskiego.
Wyniki: Uzyskane dane wskazują na istotne związki pomiędzy poczuciem koherencji i odpornością rodzicielską a zaangażowaniem rodziców we wczesne inicjacje czytelnicze oraz na mediacyjną funkcję pozytywnego postrzegania rodzicielstwa w relacji poczucie koherencji rodziców a ich zaangażowanie we wczesne inicjacje czytelnicze
Dialogised heteroglossia and the Japanese-Chinese mixed style of “Kaidōki”
Get PDFThis paper attempts to analyse the technique of assimilation of classical Chinese writing into the Japanese literary tradition of the early medieval period. The author’s main focus is one of the three styles used by Japanese authors of the time, namely the mixed Japanese-Chinese style (the so-called wakan konkō buntai). It was used in various prose genres, including travel diaries. Referring to the text of Kaidōki (Records of [a journey along] the seacoast road), a Japanese travel account from the early 13th century, the author shows on the selected source material how, in accordance with Bakhtin’s understanding of heteroglossia, a dialogue occurs on the level of Chinese and Japanese writing and how intertextual relations can influence the formation of the style of a literary work. As can be noted, the historical and literary borrowings from the Chinese tradition (the rich Sino-Japanese vocabulary and the prosaised poems originally composed in classical Chinese) enriched the semantic layer of the Japanese text. This was also reflected in the style of the work, which, despite its “crabbedness” and the fact that it was shaped by the experience of borrowed but also native polyphony, seems to be the optimal way to express it.
 
Styl – dyskurs – komunikacja urzędowa w badaniach diachronicznych (na przykładzie górnośląskich ksiąg kancelaryjnych z XVI–XVIII wieku)
Get PDFThe aim of this article is to show a new perspective in diachronic research on communication in the legal and official sphere. Until now, research has focused on the style of texts related to this field of communication, but any analysis has been selective. The introduction of the category of discourse into historical linguistics allows for a more comprehensive view of the source material through the prism of the communication rituals in force at a given period and the principles of constructing texts with specific pragmatic aims and stylistic properties. The subject of the analysis is the records in the official town registers of the early 17th century concerning real estate purchase and sale transactions. Taking into account the continuity of the officialese discourse, the author shows how texts documenting property changes were formulated at that time and proves that certain structural and stylistic elements continue in the contract genre today. A broader study of the history of the discourse would make it possible to show the formation of new genre forms from pre-existing officialese expressions set in particular time, in a different legal system and communication patterns
O stylu przemówień sądowych Eugeniusza Śmiarowskiego z lat 1920–1925
Get PDFThe research explores the speeches by Eugeniusz Śmiarowski published in 1926 entitled, “Defence Speeches” (1920-1925). The texts under investigation follow a genre pattern of a court speech. The analysis focuses on the stylistic aspect of the genre pattern and is based on the assumption that the language choices of the subject of the statement, predicted within the genre, depend on various aspects. The article aim is to show the factors affecting the style of E. Śmiarowski’s speeches. Findings prove that the author’s linguistic choices were influenced by the historical, social, and biographical contexts. The stylistic shape of his speeches is fundamentally consistent with the art of judicial eloquence. Distinguishing features should be associated with the situation (the beginnings of Polish independence), the topic of the case, and the subject’s attitude towards the world, and with the structure of speech. Mainly in its framework parts (in the introduction and conclusion), one can see the subjectivity, the privacy of the subject of the statement, and the means of emotionalising the utterance. The research fills in a gap in the literature since Śmiarowski’s speeches have not been examined before. It would be interesting to compare the texts with the speeches of other prominent court speakers from a century ago
Families in Hungary. Values, patterns, trends
Get PDFAccording to the regular value-surveys Hungary belongs to the secular-rational and material thinking countries. As a heritage of communism there are a strong basis of paternalist structures and a low rate of trust and social capital. Although family and children are important and central parts of Hungarian value system, there are a high rate of divorces and non-marital cohabitation and a low level of willingness to marriage and childbearing in Hungarian society. Fertility index (1,3) is one of the lowest in Europe. In the background of unfavourable indicators we can find the crisis of values. These values and patterns have formed in different historical situations and effect on people as a special mixture of norms. External circumstances do not allow people to develop their learned values. Women at the labour market are impacted by double pressure: in a modern society after the expansion of higher education they are motivated to work and build a carrier. (It is also a compulsion because of the insufficient incomes.) On the other hand they share traditional values, too: women are responsible for the happiness and cohesion of families. Social problems, uncertain future, inflexible and labile workplaces do not support them to have a real chance for decision. This paper attempts to give a view about the state and roots of Hungarian values in connections with family patterns and also the current demographic trends. State, localgovernments, NGOs, churches and other actors in the field of social policy have a great challenge to protect and strengthen families for a renewable and sustainable society
Pomiędzy ideałem a moralnością. Społeczne i moralne problemy w rodzinie w Rumunii
No full textIn Romanian society, family was one of the fundamental institutions, strongly supported by religious convictions, by tradition, stability and need of social safety. Inside a family man is educated from a religious point of view, he receives the model of behaviour he needs in society, he discovers the first social relations. Until today, these characteristics have been preserved in many families in Romania and they represent the foundation of a good training for young people for beautiful life, well anchored in the realities of the society. After the fall of communism in Romania at the end of 1989 and especially when the first manifestations of the globalization of secularization occurred, family was and still is confronted with new and unparalleled challenges. It has lost a lot of its value, since young people consider that they can live together without an engagement blessed by the Church and legislated by the state. Instead of assuming the responsibility of becoming a family, young people have now other priorities in life: career, their own happiness, social and economical fulfillment. These are the reasons why the average age of contracting a marriage is very high. The model of the monoparental family seems to be now in fashion, since more than 20% of children in Romania live in such a family. There is an increasing number of divorces, concubinages, abortions, people who neglect the education of their own children, of people who do not get married any more. Some of the members of Romanian families live and work abroad the official number is 900,000 and this situation has serious consequences upon family itself and especially upon the children who remain at home. All these realities have placed family, in the last 10 years, in the center of attention of all the institutions in Romania which have a social and educational impact. Churches especially engaged themselves in supporting family, in protecting it and rendering its value again. They hope that young people and members of present families will discover and assume the values of the most important institution of moral and social education

Get PDFBiograficzny problem czy normalizacja? Narracje o międzypokoleniowym awansie klasowym
Get PDFAligned with the cultural turn in social class analysis, this article explores the biographi- cal experiences associated with intergenerational upward mobility. Based on the analysis of 30 biographical-narrative interviews with individuals who transitioned from working- class backgrounds to positions as academics, artists, or business managers, the study aims to address how those who underwent objective class mobility subjectively perceive the process. The article presents and discusses two distinct types of narratives on mobility: problematizing narratives (wherein mobility becomes the central focus of in-depth biographical exploration), and normalizing narratives (where mobility does not constitute a prominent thread in the narrative). The presentation of selected biographical cases fa- cilitates the identification of elements that can influence the extent to which class mobility is manifested in the narratives.Wpisując się w zwrot kulturowy w analizach klas społecznych, artykuł koncentruje się na biograficznym doświadczaniu międzypokoleniowego awansu klasowego. Opierając się na analizie 30 wywiadów biograficzno-narracyjnych z osobami, które pochodzą z klas ludowych, a obecnie są akademikami/akademiczkami, artystami/artystkami, menadże-rami/menadżerkami biznesu, tekst poszukuje odpowiedzi na pytanie o to, jak obiektywny awans klasowy jest subiektywnie postrzegany przez osoby, którego doświadczyły. Zapre-zentowane i omówione są tutaj dwa rodzaje narracji o awansie: problematyzująca (kiedy awans staje się przedmiotem pogłębionej pracy biograficznej) oraz normalizująca (kiedy awans nie stanowi kluczowego wątku w opowieści). Prezentacja wybranych przypadków biograficznych pozwala na wyodrębnienie elementów, które mogą wpływać na stopień obecności mobilności klasowej w narracjach
