Zagrożenia dla bezpieczeństwa państw bałtyckich wynikające z rywalizacji militarnej Federacji Rosyjskiej z Sojuszem Północnoatlantyckim
Get PDFThe aim of the research was to identify the threats created by the Russian Federation to the security of the Baltic States in the context of Russian military rivalry with the North Atlantic Treaty Or-ganization. The research problem was formulated in the form of the following question: Which threats to the security of the Baltic States are and may be created by the Russian Federation in the future and how do they correspond to the strategy of the Russian military rivalry? The article presents the essence of Rus-sian strategic rivalry with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in the military sphere and explores the spectrum of threats to the security of the Baltic States as a result of Russian military rivalry with NATO. The conclusions of the research show that the military rivalry of the Russian Federation may result in a wide range of threats to territorial sovereignty and internal security in the security space of the Baltic States, thereby eroding the defence and deterrence capabilities of the NATO’s Eastern Flank. During the research process, the following research methods were applied: critical analysis and evaluation of litera-ture, conclusion, synthesis and the method of threat development forecast.Celem artykułu było zidentyfikowanie zagrożeń kreowanych przez Federację Rosyjską dla bezpieczeństwa państw bałtyckich w kontekście rosyjskiej rywalizacji militarnej z Sojuszem Północnoatlantyckim. Problem badawczy został sformułowany w formie następującego pytania: Jakie zagrożenia dla bezpieczeństwa państw bałtyckich kreuje i może kreować w przyszłości Federacja Rosyjska i jak wpisują się one w strategię rosyjskiej rywalizacji militarnej? W artykule przedstawiono istotę rosyjskiej rywalizacji strategicznej z Sojuszem Północnoatlantyckim w obszarze militarnym oraz dokonano eksplanacji spektrum zagrożeń dla bezpieczeństwa państw bałtyckich, będących efektem rosyjskiej rywalizacji militarnej z NATO. Wnioski z przeprowadzonych badań świadczą o tym, iż rywalizacja militarna Federacji Rosyjskiej może skutkować występowaniem w przestrzeni bezpieczeństwa państw bałtyckich szerokiej gamy zagrożeń dla suwerenności terytorialnej oraz bezpieczeństwa wewnętrznego, tym samym erodując zdolności Wschodniej Flanki NATO w zakresie obrony i odstraszania. W procesie badawczym zastosowano następujące metody badawcze: krytyczną analizę i ocenę literatury, wnioskowanie, syntezę oraz prognozę rozwoju zagrożeń

No full textOne of a Bulk. Another newly-discovered brick inscription of Untaš-Napiriša
Get PDFThis study examines an inscribed brick from the reign of the Middle Elamite King Untaš-Napiriša (ca. 1275-1240 BCE). The brick, unearthed in Choγā Zanbil not long ago, is currently under the ownership of a privately held collection in Shiraz. Its current location allowed us to thoroughly examine and decipher the text inscribed on it. By conducting a basic analysis and comparing it with other similar bricks, it becomes evident that this brick is identical to the one documented in MDP 41 as “12 (Pl. V, 2)”.This study examines an inscribed brick from the reign of the Middle Elamite King Untaš-Napiriša (ca. 1275-1240 BCE).

The National Defense Committee of Kosovo and the Albanian state towards the displacement of the Albanians of Kosovo in 1918-1924
Get PDFThe political map of the Balkans changed by the end of the First Balkan War 1912-1913. The Vilayet of Kosovo was occupied by Serbia. This War and the following years brought a tragedy to the vulnerable Albanian civilian population in Kosovo. Many Kosovar Albanians were forced to leave their country or their homes and to go into exile. Most of them sheltered in Albania. Kosovars were welcomed and helped in the Albanian state, they were enabled to have a political organization and representation of their interests and rights. The organization, the National Defense Committee of Kosovo played a key role in preventing migrations and sensitizing international opinion during the years 1918-1924.The political map of the Balkans changed by the end of the First Balkan War 1912-1913.

The Latin verb vīdī and its cognates in Germanic and Slavic
Get PDFArtykuł przedstawia krótki rys historyczny rozprzestrzeniania się łaciny w Eu-ropie na tle społeczno-kulturowym, w tym kontaktów językowych. Łacina odcisnęła znaczące piętno na dziedzictwie kulturowym przed-, między- i pośredniowiecznego świata, ale nie była jedynym językiem związanym z prestiżem, religią i edukacją w dawnych czasach. Artykuł szkicuje podobieństwa, wzajemne relacje i kontakty między łaciną, greką, językami germańskimi i słowiańskimi (poświadczone w dokumentach, leksyce i systemach pisma tych ostatnich). W perspektywie mikro, niniejsze opracowanie koncentruje się na morfologicznych i semantycznych osobliwościach czasowników: gr. oĩda, lat. vīdī, gmc. *witan (ze szczególnym naci-skiem na ang. wit, wot, wist, weet, itp.) i OCS vědě (ze szczególnym naciskiem na pol. wiedzieć).The article presents a brief historical account of the spread of Latin in Europe against the sociocultural background, including language contact. Latin left significant imprints on the cultural heritage of pre-, inter- and postmediaeval world, but it was not the only language associated with prestige, religion and education in older times. The article sketches the similarities, mutual relationships and contacts between Latin, Greek, Germanic and Slavic (attested in documents, the lexis and the writing systems of the latter daughter languages). In a microperspective, the present contribution focuses on the morphological and semantic peculiarities of the cognate verbs: Gr. oĩda, Lat. vīdī, Gmc. *witan (with special emphasis on Eng. wit, wot, wist, weet, etc.), and OCS vědě (with special emphasis on Pol. wiedzieć)
Forearm vein pattern recognition using features from visible and NIR images
Get PDFForearm vein recognition is one of many available methods used for identification. However, forearm veins can be considered more secure compared to other biometric traits because the veins are inside the human body and therefore not easily manipulated. Veins possess several properties that make a good biometric feature for personal identification: 1) they are difficult to damage and modify; 2) they are difficult to simulate using a fake template; and 3) vein information can represent the liveness of person. Features were extracted from each pair of visible and NIR images. For the visible images, feature extraction was done using the Gabor filter. For the NIR forearm images, a crossing number was used to extract properties of the veins e.g. bifurcation. We present the results of the recognition of forearm veins patterns that show the suitability of the method for biometric identification purposes

Get PDFThe work explores indications of reluctance to submit to tyranny in the literature of the 1960s, focusing on the works of authors Dominik Tatarka, Rudolf Sloboda, and Ján Johanides. The study builds on the research of Joseph Caroll, who argues that readers can indirectly participate in egalitarian social dynamics through literature. The objective of the work is to observe how the rebellion against the aesthetics of socialist realism is depicted in these works (whether explicitly or implicitly), and to determine if the conclusions align with those of the mentioned literary scholar.The work explores indications of reluctance to submit to tyranny in the literature of the 1960s, focusing on the works of authors Dominik Tatarka, Rudolf Sloboda, and Ján Johanides.
