Książę Adam Jerzy Czartoryski i jego stronnicy w świetle historiografii ukraińskiej
No full textIn 1937, the Warsaw historian Marceli Handelsman published a work entitled Ukraińska polityka
ks. Adama Czartoryskiego przed wojną krymską [Ukrainian politics of Prince Adam Czartoryski
before the Crimean War]. So far, this book has been used by historians as the primary source of
information on the Ukrainian issue in the views of the Hotel Lambert’s leader. The author of this
text has decided to collect Ukrainian works referring to the topic inaugurated by Handelsman. Unfortunately, no larger study has been prepared on the Ukrainian side. However, a number of articles
and encyclopaedic notes showing Prince Adam and his Eastern policy (especially during his stay
at the court of Tsar Alexander I Romanov) has been published. Ukrainian authors paid much more
attention to Czartoryski’s associates, who tried to put his ideas into practice. Ukrainian researchers
wrote mainly about Michał Czaykowski (Sadyk Pasha) organizing the Cossack troops in the Ottoman Empire, about Hipolit Terlecki striving for the union of the Orthodox and Roman Catholic
Churches, and finally about the ethnographer and writer Franciszek Duchiński clearly separating
Ukraine from Russia in his writings
ADAM SMITH'S VIEW OF HISTORY: CONSISTENT OR PARADOXICAL?
No full textThe conventional interpretation of Adam Smith is that he is a prophet of commercialism. The liberal capitalist reading of Smith is consistent with the view that history culminates in commercial society. The first part of the article develops this optimistic interpretation of Smith's view of history. Smith implies that commercial society is the end of history because 1) it supplies the ends of nature that he identifies; 2) it is inevitable; and 3) it is permanent. The second part of the article shows that Smith has some dark moments in his writings where he seems to reject completely such teleological notions. In this more civic humanist mood he confesses that commercial society does not supply the ends of nature, nor is it inevitable, nor is it permanent. Both views exist in Smith and the commentator is forced to choose between passages in Smith's work in order to support a particular interpretation of the former's view of history.Political Economy,

No full textWhat becomes of those who survive? This collection of personal essays uses humor and reflection to explore the themes of inherited trauma and bicultural identity, finding sanctity in the unlikeliest of sources: irreverence. Whether reporting on Syrian refugees at the Hungarian-Serbian border, reflecting on his experimentations with sadomasochism, recounting a botched haircut at the hands of his six-year-old brother, or translating a musical written by his grandfather in a Soviet Gulag, the author grapples with the question: how does one discover nuance in personal heritage under the Manichean weight of a global atrocity like the Holocaust?M.F.A.by Adam Jano

Adam Vasco on Identity, Belonging and Building Authentic Inclusion in Education
No full textIn this heartfelt and thought-provoking episode of Voices of Resilience, host Mary Mosoeunyane speaks with Adam Vasco, Director of Student Success at the University of Wolverhampton and a national leader in diversity, inclusion, and educational change. Drawing on his dual Nigerian and Scouse heritage, Adam shares a personal and professional journey defined by identity, authenticity, and the courage to challenge systems from within.
From growing up as one of only a handful of Black and mixed-heritage pupils in Liverpool to leading institutional transformation in higher education, Adam reflects on what it means to belong in spaces not designed for you. He speaks candidly about the long-term cost of assimilation — and why reclaiming identity and voice is central to personal and collective healing.
Adam and Mary delve into his pioneering work on cultural competence — a framework built on humility, self-awareness, and centering marginalised voices. He explains how universities can move beyond statements to real action through community partnerships, inclusive curriculum design, and co-created change.
They also explore the Everyday Heroes outreach programme and the importance of listening to young people from underrepresented communities — not as data points, but as partners in shaping the future of education. Adam’s reflections are both deeply human and rigorously practical, offering a roadmap for educators and leaders who want to move from talk to transformation.
This episode is a moving conversation about identity, equity, and the quiet power of listening — and a reminder that inclusion begins where authenticity is allowed to thrive
“Das adam Smith Problem” - uma análise comparativa das obras a teoria dos sentimentos morais e a riqueza das nações de Adam Smith
No full textTCC (graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro Sócio-Econômico. Economia.Analisaremos aqui as relações existentes entre duas obras de Adam Smith, Teoria dos Sentimentos Morais (TSM) e Riqueza das Nações (RN), e a conseqüente relação entre moral e economia. Na primeira parte analisaremos as teses de Smith sobre filosofia moral (TSM) e economia política (RN). Na segunda parte analisaremos seletivamente a controvertida recensão dessas teses, o que ficou conhecido na história do pensamento econômico como “Das Adam Smith Problem”. Essa recensão dividi-se basicamente em duas interpretações: a primeira considera que entre a TSM e a RN haveria uma ruptura no pensamento de Smith, a segunda considera que existe uma unidade entre ambas as obras. Com relação à primeira interpretação, selecionamos a análise de Louis Dumont. E como contraponto, selecionamos a interpretação de Jean-Pierre Dupuy. Advogando a tese da unidade entre as obra de Smith, esse trabalho mostra as relações existentes entre a filosofia moral e economia para Adam Smith
