W kontekście wydanych kilka lat później spisów urzędników województw smoleńskiego, wileńskiego, czy trockiego2 kwestio- nariusz informacji o osobach urzędników podlaskich jest stosunkowo uboższy. Ograniczono się do urzędników ziemskich, natomiast nie uwzględniono w tym spisie takich urzędników, jak sędzia grodzki, pisarz grodzki, podwojewo- dzi, podstarości, pisarz grodzki, czy podpisek (vicenotarius). Trudno się temu dziwić, gdyż autorzy opracowania w zasadzie działali niejako po omacku, gdyż wzorzec wielkopolski, czy małopolski, spisu urzędników również nie zaliczył ich do lokalnej elity urzędniczej. Wydaje się zatem, że model wypracowany przez zespół kierowany przez Prof. Andrzeja Ruchubę znacząco poszerza naszą wiedzę o elitach lokalnych, o ich powiązaniach, chociażby poprzez informację o zawartych małżeństwach i zachodzącym przez nie powinowactwie z innymi 1 Urzędnicy podlascy XIV–XVIII wieku.

Rachuba, Warszawa 2003. 10 Jan Tęgowski O elicie urzędniczej Podlasia uwag kilka członkami elity lokalnej, bądź zewnętrznej. Te informacje ułatwiają śledzenie strategii małżeńskich, karier pojedynczych osób, bądź rodowej ciągłości obsady na urzędach. Taki spis urzędników nie może ograniczać się do samego wyli- czenia osób będących w określonych okresach na stanowiskach urzędniczych. Trzeba niekiedy zwrócić uwagę na takie szczegóły, jak pochodzenie geograficzne, co pozwalałoby śledzić mobilność szlachty, a także obserwować aklimatyzację w nowym środowisku. Gdy chodzi o uzupełnienia i poprawki do spisu urzędników podlaskich do połowy XVI w., uczynił to Tomasz Jaszczołt w niepublikowanej dotąd rozprawie doktorskiej3, napisanej i obronionej pod moim kierunkiem – jest tych uzupełnień sporo. Moje uwagi i poprawki nie będą jednak nawiązywać do tych zawartych w pracy T. Jaszczołta, lecz oparte będą w przeważającej mierze na materiale za- wartym w nowo odkrytych w Archiwum we Lwowie Kapicjanach4. Są to materiały (wypisy) z akt ziemskich i grodzkich mazowieckich i podlaskich w 38 poszytach, które we Lwowie znalazły się po II wojnie światowej. Jest to znakomite źródło pozwalające na uzupełnienie informacji o społeczności szlacheckiej Podlasia i sąsiednich ziem w późnym średniowieczu i czasach nowożytnych. Niniejsze rozważania nie pretendują do całkowitego wyczerpania tematu, a jedynie mają na celu zwrócić uwagę na możliwości tkwiące jeszcze w materiale źródłowym. Moje uzupełnienia spisu urzędników podlaskich rozpocznę od nieuwzględ- nionego dotąd Mikity, starosty bielskiego i goniądzkiego, pełniącego swój urząd z ramienia wielkiego księcia Witolda, który 1 stycznia 1407 r. wysłał list, napisany po łacinie, do bliżej nieznanego urzędnika krzyżackiego5. Imię Mikita wskazuje na jego ruskie pochodzenie, co nie koliduje z faktem użycia w korespondencji języka łacińskiego. Z pewnością

The text is also available in French and Russian (see attached pdf files). The Battle of Warsaw was one of the most important moments of the Polish-Bolshevik war, one of the most decisive events in the history of Poland, Europe and the entire world. However, excluding Poland, this fact is almost completely unknown to the citizens of European countries. This phenomenon was noticed a decade after the battle had taken place by a British diplomat, Lord Edgar Vincent d’Abernon, a direct witness of the events. In his book of 1931 “The Eighteenth Decisive Battle of the World: Warsaw, 1920”, he claimed that in the contemporary history of civilisation there are, in fact, few events of greater importance than the Battle of Warsaw of 1920. There is also no other which has been more overlooked. To better understand the origin and importance of the battle of Warsaw, one needs to become acquainted with a short summary of the Polish-Bolshevik war and, first and foremost, to get to know the goals of both fighting sides. We ought to start with stating the obvious, namely, that the Bolshevik regime, led by Vladimir Lenin, was, from the very beginning, focused on expansion. Prof. Richard Pipes, a prolific American historian, stated: “the Bolsheviks took power not to change Russia, but to use it as a trampoline for world revolution”.

  • ON the EFFECTIVE USE of PROXY WARFARE by Andrew Lewis Peek Baltimore, Maryland May 2021 © 2021 Andrew Peek All Rights Reserved
    ON THE EFFECTIVE USE OF PROXY WARFARE by Andrew Lewis Peek A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland May 2021 2021 Andrew Peek All rights reserved Abstract This dissertation asks a simple question: how are states most effectively conducting proxy warfare in the modern international system? It answers this question by conducting a comparative study of the sponsorship of proxy forces. It uses process tracing to examine five cases of proxy warfare and predicts that the differentiation in support for each proxy impacts their utility. In particular, it proposes that increasing the principal-agent distance between sponsors and proxies might correlate with strategic effectiveness. That is, the less directly a proxy is supported and controlled by a sponsor, the more effective the proxy becomes. Strategic effectiveness here is conceptualized as consisting of two key parts: a proxy’s operational capability and a sponsor’s plausible deniability. These should be in inverse relation to each other: the greater and more overt a sponsor’s support is to a proxy, the more capable – better armed, better trained – its proxies should be on the battlefield. However, this close support to such proxies should also make the sponsor’s influence less deniable, and thus incur strategic costs against both it and the proxy. These costs primarily consist of external balancing by rival states, the same way such states would balance against conventional aggression. Conversely, the more deniable such support is – the more indirect and less overt – the less balancing occurs.

  • Szymon Askenazy As a Diplomat of the Reborn Poland (1920–1923)
    Studia z Dziejów Rosji i Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej ■ LII-SI(3) Marek Kornat Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History, Polish Academy of Sciences Szymon Askenazy as a diplomat of the Reborn Poland (1920–1923) Zarys treści: Studium jest próbą opracowania działalności dyplomatycznej Szymona Askenazego po odrodzeniu państwa polskiego, a zwłaszcza najmniej znanej karty, jaką była jego walka o kształt granic odrodzonej Rzeczypospolitej w Genewie 1921–1923. Był to jeden z najgorętszych okresów w historii dyplomacji polskiej. Askenazy reprezentował interesy odrodzonej Polski, będącej jego ojczyzną z wyboru. Jego działania nie spotkały się jednak z powszechną aprobatą głównych obozów polityki polskiej. Był też rzecznikiem koncepcji podwójnej świadomości Żydów: żydowskiej i polskiej. Jego zdaniem Żydzi zachować winni swoją religię i kulturę, ale zarazem “niechaj połączą to z poczuciem polskości i patriotyzmu polskiego”. Outline of content: The study is an attempt to describe the diplomatic activities of Szymon Askenazy after the revival of the Polish state, and especially their least known chapter, which was his struggle for the shape of the borders of the reborn Republic of Poland in Geneva, 1921–1923. It was one of the hottest periods in the history of Polish diplomacy. Askenazy represented the interests of the reborn Poland, his chosen homeland. However, his actions did not always receive general approval of the main camps of Polish politics. He was also a spokesperson for the concept of Jews’ double consciousness: Jewish and Polish. In his

  • Why I Started Making Scale Models
    T-34 STORY OR WHY I STARTED MAKING SCALE MODELS by Serge Kaznadiy 2016 I was born in Kirovohrad, Ukraine when it was part of the Soviet Union, or the USSR, for short. Being a country with centralized government-run economy, the USSR did not have too many fancy consumer goods. In fact, its goods were not fancy at all. Hobby groups were literally non-existent, as the government did not encourage any groups with any interests at all. The hobby scene was dull. Serge Kaznadiy 1971 KIROVOHRAD Hobby kits were almost non-existent as well, except for a few ideologically inspired ones, like 1:800 scale Battleship Potiomkin (left) and cruiser Aurora which occupied a prominent place in the history of Bolshevism. There were models of 1:35 KV tank (below) and a couple of self-propelled guns. Kits included only a bottle of glue but no decals or paints. The kits were sold in so-called Kulttovari (Cultural Items) stores. No paints, tools or lacquers were available. Luckily (or not) there was East Germany which retained its European traditions, including those in manufacturing consumer goods which were of far better quality that those made in the USSR. This applied to hobby model kits as well. The East German government created VEB Plasticart in 1958, a company which offered almost Tamiya-level 1:100 scale model kits in fancy semi-gloss boxes with attractive artwork. (Germany!) The only limitation was that Plasticart offered only plane and heli models (mostly Soviet ones) and a Soviet Vostok spaceship. No armor or ships kits Kits by Plasticart were only avaialble in Moscow, the capital city of the Soviet empire, and a few other large cities like Leningrad or Kiev.

Link to the lesson You will learn to characterize the major events of 1918 and 1919 in eastern Poland; to describe the progress and the aftermath of the conflict with the Ukrainians in 1918–1919, initial fights with the Bolscheviks and the Kiev Offensive led by Józef Piłsudski; to recognize the elements of the Bolschevik tactics (establishment of the Provisional Polish Revolutionary Committee in Białystok). Nagranie dostępne na portalu epodreczniki.pl Nagranie dźwiękowe abstraktu. The re‐emerging Poland saw two concepts of the future Polish statehood: incorporation championed by Roman Dmowski and federation advocated by Józef Piłsudski. Attempts to draw the eastern border were initiated still during World War I. A conflict with the Ukrainians broke out in Galicia; the Ukrainians took Lviv and proclaimed the West Ukrainian People's Republic (ZUNR) (on the 1st of November 1918). The Poles managed to regain control of the city and force the Ukrainians off east of the Zbruch River. A cease‐fire between the conflicted sides was signed in September 1919. After the German forces' retreat early in 1919 from the eastern territories, the Bolshevik Army entered determined to achieve the vision of a world proletarian revolution. In April 1920, Józef Piłsudski entered into an alliance with the Ukrainian ataman, Symon Petlyura, and launched a joint offensive against the Red Army, ended with the capture of Kiev.

    Military History Anniversaries 1 thru 15 August Events in History over the next 15 day period that had U.S. military involvement or impacted in some way on U.S military operations or American interests worldwide Aug 01 1801 – Tripolitan War: The schooner USS Enterprise defeated the 14-gun Tripolitan corsair Tripoli after a fierce but one–sided battle. Aug 01 1907 – U.S. Army: Air Force Day » On this day the U.S. Army Signal Corps established a small Aeronautical Division to take care of all matters pertaining to military ballooning, air machines and all kindred subjects. The Signal corps began testing its first airplane at Fort Myers, Virginia, on August 20, 1908. After more testing with an improved Wright Flyer, the Army formerly accepted this airplane, identified as “Airplane No. 1,” on August 2, 1909. In early 1913, the Army ordered its aviators who were training in Augusta Georgia, and Palm Beach, Florida to Texas to take part in the 2nd Division maneuvers. In Galveston on 3 MAR, the chief Signal Oficer designated the assembled men and equipment the the “1st Provisional Aero Squadron” with Capt. Charles DeF. Chandler as squadron commander. They began flying activities a few days later. On 4 DEC, general orders redesignate the unit as the 1st Aero Squadron, effective 8 DEC. The first military unit of the U.S. Army devoted exclusively to aviation has remained continuously active since its creation. Air Force Day was established on August 1, 1947, by President Truman "in recognition of the personnel of the victorious Army Air Forces and all those who have developed and maintained our nation's air strength." August 1 was chosen to mark the 40th anniversary of the establishment, in 1907, of the Aeronautical Division in the Office of the Chief Signal Officer of the Army.
