NIEPEWNA NORMALIZACJA STOSUNKÓW POLITYCZNO-GOSPODARCZYCH IRANU Z ZACHODEM
This article analyses and assesses the hitherto achievements in the negotiations of the five permanent members of the Security Council plus Germany with Iran devoted to the limitation of its nuclear program and normalization of the mutual relations. This is prerequisite of the full normalization of political and economic relations between Iran and Western states. An interim agreement struck in the end of November 2013 in Geneva has not led, for the time being, to the signing of the permanent agreement. On the contrary, the negotiations were extended for the third time since November 2013 till June 2015. There is a danger that Iran will get another extension in June this year and will be able to play for time again. Thus it is reasonable to doubt whether Iran wants a deal with theWest or tries to produce a nuclear bomb in the near future, The Obama administration conducts rather „soft” policy towards Iran as the U.S. needs that country in the war with the Islamic State. On the other hand even the present U.S. administration cannot accept a deal that allows Iran to expand its nuclear programme and enrich uranium to 20%. From various reasons the present stalemate in the negotiations with Iran cannot be resolved with the use of military force. Thus the only hope is that Iran will reconsider all benefits connected with the normalization of its economic and political relations with the West and finally sign a deal with the United States and other Western states.Celem artykułu jest analiza dotychczasowych osiągnięć negocjacji prowadzonych przez pięciu stałych członków Rady Bezpieczeństwa ONZ i Niemiec z władzami Iranu. Negocjacje skierowane są na ograniczenie irańskiego programu nuklearnego i normalizację wzajemnych stosunków. Porozumienie tymczasowe, podpisane w listopadzie 2013 r. w Genewie nie doprowadziło do zawarcia ostatecznych uzgodnień. Wynegocjowane 2 kwietnia 2015 r. porozumienie ramowe z Lozanny, choć powinno być uznane za sukces przez fakt prowadzenia rozmów, to brak konkretnych ustaleń nakazuje uznać je za negocjacyjne niepowodzenie

Mniejszości narodowe a bezpieczeństwo Polski
Numerous attempts to define national and ethnic minorities have been made. The provisions of the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities and of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages have tried to regulate this issue. The rights of national minorities in Poland are protected by Article 35 of the Constitution and the Law on national and ethnic minorities and regional languages. However, this fails to define the notion of a minority and encompasses only certain national minorities living in Poland. Its legal scope is limited by the requirement that the ancestors of minorities have lived on the territory of Poland for at least one hundred years. The legislator recognizes only nine national minorities and four ethnic minorities, and fails to stipulate the conditions for differentiating national minorities from ethnic minorities. The provisions of the law cannot be invoked by the representatives of Vietnamese, French, American, Greek, Italian and other minorities since they are not explicitly referred to by the legislator.Numerous attempts to define national and ethnic minorities have been made.

The Role of the European Union in Conflict Resolution in Africa: Towards Comprehensive, Integrated and Long-Term Commitment?
The overall aim of this article is to provide an insight into EU’s engagement and increasing role in conflict resolution in Africa. The question addressed in this article is about the nature and scope of this commitment. To that end, this article provides an up-to-date analysis of the instruments committing the European Union to conflict resolution in Africa with a view to define and delimit, contextualize and measure its normative density. It takes a closer look at both unilateral instruments of the EU as well as those originating from the Union’s contractual relations with its African partners. It addresses a number of controversies generated by the normative: vertical and horizontal, institutional and functional fragmentation of the EU’s commitment to conflict resolution in Africa. The overarching argument presented in this article is that the European Union and its African partners need to move away from their dramatically fragmented partnership toward a more comprehensive, integrated and long-term regime for the EU’s engagement in conflict resolution in Africa

Autor zainteresował się jego stanem, po ukazaniu się kolejnego raportu Ministerstwa Spraw Wewnętrznych omawiającego stan bezpieczeństwa w 2012 roku. W artykule znajdziemy krótkie nawiązanie do wieloznacznoœci pojęcia „bezpieczeństwo” oraz problemów z jego obiektywną oceną. Autor odwołując się do literatury, przybliża czynniki mające wpływ na poczucie bezpieczeństwa. Przy wykorzystaniu danych statystycznych, podejmowana jest próba ukazania efektywnoœci działań niektórych służb policyjnych. W treści artykułu stawiane są pytania, na które autor najczęściej nie udziela odpowiedzi, inspirując tym samym czytelnika, do własnych przemysleń i formułowania ocen. Odwołujac się natomiast do danych i wskaźników statystycznych, stara się wykazac jak wieloznacznie można i należy interpretowac dane statystyczne. W artykule znajdziemy uzasadnienie dla tezy, że statystyka nie powinna byc celem, a narzędziem słuącym przybliżeniu do prawdy w zakresie zagrożeń kryminalnych. Z tego narzędzia należy korzystać jednak w sposób umiejętny

Health Security in the White Book on National Security of the Republic of Poland – a Review of Provisions
The paper reviews the provisions of the White Book on National Security of the Republic of Poland. It states that the issue of health security is not given adequate significance there. The accessibility of health services is considered, in general, solely in terms of their availability. The assumptions concerning the concept of providing the number of beds required in a state of threat to national security and in time of war do not take into account the current socio-economic conditions and need to be reviewed. The conclusions emphasize the dilemmas that emerge as a result of the unilateral promotion of a single category of national security, that is military security, in the context of ensuring health security
