Hegel after Deleuze and Guattari : freedom in philosophy and the state
In the thesis I explain why an immanent approach in philosophy means taking contingency to be "irreducible". I show why Deleuze and Guattari believe this to be the case and why they think Hegel fails to do this. I then go on to show in what way Hegel incorporates contingency into his system and how he also creates his own sense of "necessity" that emerges from the systematic treatment of contingent concepts. In this way I show how Hegel can respond to the demand for immanence made by Deleuze and Guattari. I suggest that freedom, for Hegel, consists in the systematic treatment of contingency in our lives and in our thinking

Poezja w protestanckich kancjonałach Białorusi w XVI wieku
Pierwsze poetyckie utwory renesansowe w języku starobiałoruskim i w łacinie zostały wydru kowane na początku XVI w. w Krakowie, Brześciu i Nieświeżu, zaś w latach 50.-60. XVI w. ukazywały się drukiem pierwsze wiersze i poematy w języku polskim. Aktywni działacze ruchu protestanckiego, usiłując spopularyzować w społeczeństwie nowe poglądy religijne, korzystali z dostępnej dla odbiorcy formy wiersza. W danym artykule autor zwraca szczególną uwagę na dwa kancjonały: brzeski Pieśni chwał Boskich, przygotowany przez Jana Zarębę i wydrukowany przez Stanisława Murmeliusa w 1558 r., oraz nieświeski Katechizm, albo krótkie w jedno miejsce zebra nie wiary i powinności Krześcijańskiej..., wydany w 1563 r. przez Daniela Łęczyckiego w drukami należącej do Macieja Kawiaczyńskiego. Zdaniem autora, wiersze zawarte w kancjonałach, będąc religijnymi utworami o charakterze publicystycznym, przygotowywały grunt do powstania świec kiej poezji politycznej.The first Renaissance poems in Old Belarussian and Latin were printed at the beginning of the 16lh century in Cracow, Brześć and Nieśwież, however the first poems in Polish came out in print in the 50s and 60s of the 16th century. Protestant activists of the Protestant movement poem, accessible to the reader, in order to popularize their religious views in the society. In the article the author places particular emphasis on two religious songbooks: the Brześć Pieśni chwał, by Jan Zaręba and printed by Stanislaw Murmelius in 1558, and the Nieśwież Katechizm, albo krótkie, w jedno miejsce zebranie wiary i powinności Krześcijańskiej, published in 1563 by Daniel Łęczy ca in the printing house of Maciej Kawiaczyński. The author expresses the view that, as religious works of commentary nature, the poems from the songbooks set the stage for the appearance of secular political poetry
American Roulette: The Effect of Reminders of Death on Support for George W. Bush in the 2004 Presidential Election
An experiment was conducted to assess the effect of a subtle reminder of death on voting intentions for the 2004 U.S. presidential election. On the basis of terror management theory and previous research, we hypothesized that a mortality salience induction would increase support for President George W. Bush and decrease support for Senator John Kerry. In late September 2004, following a mortality salience or control induction, registered voters were asked which candidate they intended to vote for. In accord with predictions, Senator John Kerry received substantially more votes than George Bush in the control condition, but Bush was favored over Kerry following a reminder of death, suggesting that President Bush's re-election may have been facilitated by non conscious concerns about mortality in the aftermath of September 11, 2001.This is an electronic version of the article published in Analyses of Social Issues and Public Policy, 5(1):177-187, 2005 Dec.The definitive version is available at www3.interscience.wiley.co
