Introduction 20 The aim of this paper is to present selected aspects of partner cooperation between services 21 responsible for crisis management in the border regions of Poland and the Czech Republic. 22 The cooperation of uniformed services should not be considered solely in the context of dealing 23 with the consequences of natural disasters or combating organised international crime. It must 24 be planned in advance and systematically practised. In other words, it cannot only be ex post 25 facto cooperation. Such cooperation is all the more important in the case of border regions in 26 view of different legal regulations and communication systems in each country, as well as the 27 language barrier which may appear when communicating with people who need help from the 28 emergency services. 29 http://dx.doi.org/10.29119/1641-3466.2019.139.9 https://www.polsl.pl/Wydzialy/ROZ/Strony/Zeszytynaukowe.aspx 124 M. Gabryšová, W. Ciechomski 1 Excellent examples of strengthening this cooperation are joint Polish-Czech projects which 2 aim to improve the safety and security of residents and tourists in border regions. The article 3 describes five such programmes: “Safe Borderlands”, cross-border cooperation between the 4 Fire Brigade and the Police, combating drug crime, combating cybercrime, and the creation of 5 the “Joint Facility in Chotěbuz”. The paper is based not only on the study of the literature, 6 but also on the results of direct in-depth interviews conducted with four Polish and Czech 7 officers responsible for implementing these programmes and improving the cooperation 8 between Polish-Czech crisis management services. 9 2. The essence and stages of the crisis management process 10 The crisis management process consists of four stages: prevention, preparation, response and 11 reconstruction. Prevention is understood as a set of activities that aim to eliminate or reduce the 12 likelihood of a given threat and limit its adverse effects. This should be a continuous process, 13 and any mistakes made at this stage may have a destructive impact on the entire crisis 14 management cycle. 15 The preparation phase comprises such elements as forecasting the effects of potential threats; 16 planning how to react; as well as actions aimed at gathering the manpower and resources 17 necessary to effectively respond to a crisis situation. Another very important element of the 18 preparation stage is the organisation of training exercises aimed at checking the preparation of 19 the entities involved in the crisis management process, such as the Police, the Border Guard, 20 the State Fire Service, medical services and others. The main tasks of these services in the 21 response phase include implementing appropriate procedures, organising medical assistance, 22 securing endangered areas and evacuating people who are in danger. Incorrect organisation of 23 the prevention and preparation phases leads to the accumulation of adverse phenomena which 24 may appear in the response phase and which, in extreme situations, may make it impossible to 25 implement coordinated actions. 26 The reconstruction phase consists of a set of measures aimed at restoring the pre-crisis 27 situation in the shortest possible time, or even improving it, in the light of the experience gained, 28 in order to prevent a recurrence of the crisis. This process includes, among others, estimating 29 damage and loss, restoring and replenishing resources, restoring operational readiness, as well 30 as modifying crisis management plans and procedures. 31 Threats caused by natural forces that result in crisis situations include floods, snowstorms, 32 thunderstorms, hurricanes, epidemics, fires and more (Wiśniewski, Kaczmarczyk, 2012b, 33 p. 110). These very dangerous phenomena, such as the African swine fever epidemic (ASF), 34 often occur simultaneously in two or more countries and can be effectively controlled only if 35 the cooperation of services between these countries is real and not only declared. Therefore, the The role of crisis management... 125 1 issue of crisis management requires clarifying the principles of cooperation and defining the 2 limits of each partner’s autonomy. This applies to each of the crisis management phases and to 3 all the links in the system in relation to specific threats (Gołębiewski, 2015b, p. 7). 4 A very important attribute of the crisis management system is a rational coordination of 5 actions in emergencies (Gołębiewski, 2015a, p. 40). This issue is all the more important when 6 it concerns the cooperation of services from different countries, for example with regard to 7 flood risks or forest fires. Nature does not know and does not respect national borders, and 8 effective flood prevention in large areas of, for example, Lower Silesia, requires efficient 9 cooperation between Polish, Czech and German services. The organisation and functioning of 10 local flood warning systems, for example, is based on the implementation of an integrated 11 system, also referred to as a total system, which includes not only activities ensuring a correct 12 response in emergency situations, but also the integration of national and local actions, 13 including the border regions. The system of international crisis management is primarily a set 14 of warning, information and education measures aimed at creating a climate of cooperation 15 (Wiśniewski, Kaczmarczyk, 2012b, p. 28 et seq.). 16 It is also worth noting one more issue related to international crisis management. One of the 17 important consequences of the rapid integration of states is the need for being able to efficiently 18 deal with crisis situations (Molendowski, 2012, p. 29 et seq.). The implementation of the 19 European Union’s regional policy necessitates the creation of certain administrative capabilities 20 with regard to managing programmes and projects, including infrastructure projects connected 21 with crisis management (Życki, 2010, p. 86). In addition to internal security, the priorities of 22 the EU’s regional policy include the restructuring and modernisation of rural areas, 23 the development of human resources, and an increase in the competitiveness of enterprises in 24 the food sector, among others (Sługocki, 2013, p. 187). 25 The majority of the specialist literature on integration processes is devoted to the absorption 26 of financial resources from EU funds, placing particular emphasis on the vision and strategies 27 for the development of border regions. Unfortunately, the issues of crisis management and the 28 cooperation of uniformed services are not given a lot of attention in these documents even 29 though ensuring the cohesion of activities in this respect is of the utmost importance (Sługocki, 30 2016, p. 187 et seq.). The multifaceted nature of international cooperation and its impact on the 31 development of regions, including border regions, are discussed in more detail by Kowalewska- 32 Borys and Chomicz (2015, p. 13 et seq.). 33 Analysing the fundamental objectives and determinants of international cooperation, 34 it is also worth emphasising that while excessive diversity can be intriguing or even irritating, 35 overcoming barriers between countries and societies can be quite fascinating (Gabryšová, 36 Ciechomski, 2018, p. 101). A great achievement of contemporary Western European 37 civilization is that national borders are no longer a reason for division or isolation. Currently, 38 the international relations of the countries that make up the European Union tend to focus more 39 strongly on what connects rather than what divides. Building a modern Europe is a process of 126 M. Gabryšová, W. Ciechomski 1 discovering and appreciating its differences and the richness of its cultures (Gołoś, Kasińska- 2 Metryka, 2011, p. 87). With such an understanding in the philosophy of the co-existence of 3 states and nations, creating and implementing crisis management systems in border regions 4 proves much easier. 5 Furthermore, the European Community is making intensive efforts to strengthen the 6 economy and social fabric of peripheral areas, including border areas, which are often at risk 7 of marginalisation. This also involves building friendly mutual relations based on partnership, 8 which are the basis of the philosophy and strategy of relationship marketing (Rudolf, 2016, 9 p. 78 et seq.). Development opportunities in these areas are equalised, among others, with the 10 help of the structural funds, which also serve to finance the strengthening of safety and security 11 in border areas. Fire-fighting units operating in the Polish-Czech border area took advantage of 12 this opportunity.

  • Sprachliche Verhältnisse Im Heutigen Polnischen Teil Des Teschener Schlesiens - Ein Historischer Überblick Language Relations in the Teschen Silesia
    Grzegorz M. Chromik Jagiellonen-Universität Kraków Sprachliche Verhältnisse im heutigen polnischen Teil des Teschener Schlesiens - ein historischer Überblick Language Relations in the Teschen Silesia Abstract: The article presents the language relations of Polish, Czech and German language in all cities and villages of Teschen Silesia from the Middle Ages until 1918. The oldest information are the names of inhabitants showing their ethnic origin. 'Ihe first explicit information about the languages spoken in all the region is given in the book of Reginald Kneifei Topographie des kaiserl. kiinigl. Antheils von Schlesien (vol. 2) from 1804. In the 19"' century there is exact data from the Austrian census. 'Ihe changes in the percentage participation of the speakers are explained, for example because of new factories or railway stations which attracted Germans. Keywords: Teschen Silesia, Cieszyn Silesia, Austrian Silesia, language contact, language relation Der Beitrag bringt statistische Angaben zu Sprachverhältnissen in ausgewählten Ortschaften im Teschener Schlesien um die Wende vom 18. zum 19. Jahrhundert. Als erste werden immer historische Informationen zu der jeweiligen sprachlichen Situation angegeben, falls solche überhaupt vorhanden sind. Zu der ältesten Pe­ riode (Mittelalter und frühe Neuzeit) liegen so gut wie keine expliziten Angaben zum Sprachgebrauch vor. Die einzigen Quellen sind kirchliche Informationen über die Sprache der Predigt in der lokalen Pfarrkirche und die Familiennamen. Bei Ortschaften, die keine Kirche hatten und woanders eingepfarrt waren, fehlen solche Angaben gänzlich. Auch Familiennamen sind keine zuverlässige Quelle, da sie beim Sprachwechsel unverändert bleiben. Bevor die Sprache zum Gegen­ stand statistischer Erhebungen wurde, gab es nur spärliche Informationen zum Sprachgebrauch. Eine der ersten Quellen, die das Problem der Mehrsprachigkeit im Teschener Schlesien berücksichtigte, war das Werk von Kn eifel (1804).

  • Annual Report Center for Mission and Evangelism of the Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Confession in Poland 2015 Is Behind Us
    2015 . ANNUAL REPORT CENTER FOR MISSION AND EVANGELISM OF THE EVANGELICAL CHURCH OF THE AUGSBURG CONFESSION IN POLAND 2015 IS BEHIND US Dear readers of the report The year 2015 in the Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Confession in Poland was the Year of Evangelical Culture, accom- panied by the biblical text from the Letter to Romans 15:7: ”Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.” In our actions we were mainly highlighting the idea of no divisions, focusing on mutual respect, acceptance and under- standing that the other person may have a different point of view and that we should try to keep the peace and build good relationships. Secondly, that we as Christians should follow Jesus Christ in our lives, take care of other people’s wellbeing, not concentrate on their flaws, and to take care of our own actions and take responsibility for them because this is the only way to experience unity and unanimity in Christ. “Christians should act as their Savior did. He accepted the people no matter what, once for all … Peace and unanimity are the most important things in common praise for God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (see Rom 15:6). It is also important that by this attitude of “accepting” we not only mean tolerating the second person but that we focus on a real, deep, exi- stential engagement for his or her good, also in taking on his or her weaknesses and shortages.” Dr. Dominik Nowak In our work throughout the year we used two slogans, promoting them at the same time: People To improve are God’s the quality method of life slogan to be used in the Church slogan depicting the CME and other Christian backgrounds as the Public Benefit Institution AS THE INSTITUTION WE HAVE BEEN ACTIVE IN POLAND FOR THE LAST 19 YEARS, AS THE PUBLIC BENEFIT INSTITUTION WE HAVE BEEN WORKING FOR THE LAST 11 YEARS.

Godlewska- Majkowska, Ph.D., university professor at the WSE. All the Authors are the core members of a team that develops methodology of calculating regional investment attractiveness in order that characteristics of regions, which are important to investors, are captured as closely as possible, both in general terms and from a point of view of specificity of a given kind of business activity as well as a size of investment. Potential investment attractiveness (PAI) indices measure the location-specific advantages of regions. In their simplified version they are calculated for territorial units of various levels of statistical division of the country (communes – Polish: gmina, counties – Polish: powiat, subregions, voivodships/regions). These are PAI1 indices, which refer to the whole regional/national economy (PAI1_GN) and selected sections: C – manufacturing industry, G – trade and repair, I – tourism and catering, M – professional, scientific and technical services. Besides, some indices are calculated only for the voidoships, on the basis of characteristics available only on the regional or macroregional level which allows evaluating their investment attractiveness in a much broader context.

Of these, at least 1006 (almost 76 per cent) had another village mayor in Cieszyn Silesia in their ‘kindred circle’, which includes second-degree relatives according to canonical computation, as well as witnesses at weddings and baptisms of their closest family (children, parents, siblings). The uninterrupted lineage of these types of relationships connected at least 875 village mayors, or 66 per cent of all those known. Thus the partial democratisation at the level of local self-government led to a kind of oligarchy, with the position of the village head being assumed by wealthy peasant families who all had connections to one another. Outside of the ‘kindred circle’, there were the factory owners and offi cials of archdukes and counts, who took the position of village mayor in industrialised areas, as well as a few Jewish village mayors and probably the majority of village mayors from the moun- tain villages. The question examined here is whether the situation looked similar in other parts of the Habsburg monarchy, or whether Cieszyn Silesia stood out in this respect. This question remains unanswered due to the lack of analogous studies on village mayors.

Journal of Martial Arts Anthropology”, Vol. 20, no. 2 (2020), pp. 1–9 DOI: 10.14589/ido.20.2.1 HISTORY Jacek Kulpinski College of Medical Sciences, University of Rzeszow, Rzeszow (Poland) Corresponding author: Dr Jacek Wojciech Kulpinski, 38-123 Wysoka Strzyzowska 620A, Poland e-mail: [email protected], mobile phone: 602597994 Eastern martial arts in the Bielsko-Biala voivodeship between 1975 and 1998 Submission: 29.04.2019; acceptance: 16.09.2019 Key words: clubs, organizations, the Podbeskidzie region, success, martial arts, athletes Abstract The Background. Between 1975 and 1998 the Bielsko-Biala voivodeship existed in southern Poland with its capital in Bielsko-Biala. It was established on 1 June 1975 following the introduction of a new administrative division in Poland. The area of the voivode- ship was 3704 km2. It was divided into 18 towns and 59 communes, and it consisted of the present-day districts of Wadowice and Zywiec entirely, parts of Bielsko-Biala, Cieszyn, Oswiecim and Sucha Beskidzka, and a small part of the district of Chrzanow. Problem. The author’s intention was to discuss three sports disciplines as examples of the processes and to present the multifaceted activities that were reflected in the Bielsko-Biala voivodeship during the period under discussion.

Historyczne początki Śląska Cieszyńskiego sięgają XIII w., kiedy to powstało księstwo cieszyńskie stanowiące dobro Piastów cieszyńskich1. Zostało ono włączone na mocy patentu cesarza Ferdynanda III w 1654 r. w skład Śląskiej Komory Cieszyńskiej we Wrocławiu Był to początek władzy Habsburgów w księstwie cieszyńskim. Jego ówczesne granice prawie w całości pokrywają się z obszarem uważanym współcześnie za Śląsk Cieszyński2. Idee reformacji pojawiły się na Śląsku najwcześniej we Wrocławiu, gdzie już w 1519 r. zaczęto drukować dzieła Marcina Lutra3, a w 1545 r. książę Wacław III Adam Pogrobowiec uznał konfesję augs- burską za oficjalne wyznanie księstwa cieszyńskiego4. Niestety, wraz ze wspomnianym już przejęciem władzy w księstwie przez Habsburgów zaczęły się prześladowania luteranów w ramach polityki kontr- reformacyjnej, prowadzonej przez dynastię panującą, co na długie lata zahamowało rozwój architektury protestanckiej w tym regionie. Trzeba pamiętać, że wśród zwolenników reformacji były zróżnicowane poglądy na temat budynków służących sprawom kultu. Na początku swej drogi reformatorskiej Marcin Luter uważał, iż świątynie mają być jedynie domami modlitwy o czysto użytkowym charakterze5. Adiafora6 – tak można by określić jego stosunek do znaczenia budowli sakralnej. Budowa kościoła miała dla Lutra sens jedynie ze względów dydak- tycznych. Dom modlitwy nie był również dla protestantów domem Boga7. Ponieważ jednak każda odmiana sakralności jest wyrazem uczuć danej zbiorowości, aby mogła zyskać samoświadomość, potrzebuje związku z przedmiotami zewnętrznymi8.
