Consider the many different ways in which this simple phrase may be interpreted in relation to the CCN network? CCN partners have built bridges between countries, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Black Sea and from the Norwegian Sea to the Mediterranean Sea. They have built bridges between disciplines from Architecture to Zoology. They have built bridges from North to South and from East to West. Conference speakers have come from North and South America, Africa and Asia. Now they are seeking to build bridges crossing the rivers of knowledge that separate as well as unite disciplines. Can that big bridge to bring CCN from a multidisciplinary network to an interdisciplinary network be built? The Cambridge University Press dictionary defines multidisciplinary as involving different subjects of study in one activity. It defines interdisciplinary as involving two or more different subjects or areas of knowledge. The difference can sometimes be difficult to comprehend. If we take the example of sustainable development, a multidisciplinary approach would involve, for instance, an economist and a scientist working on the same problem but separately. Research may be carried out and published in the relevant academic journals of the individual discipline but the most effective method for dealing with the problems may not be developed. Using an interdisciplinary approach involves the economists and scientists coming together whereby concepts and methods from one discipline are worked on and developed by researchers from other disciplines developing a single unified response. Consumer Citizenship requires movement towards the integrated interdisciplinary model. The evolving discipline is so diverse as to make other approaches meaningless. As researchers and activists approaching consumer citizenship from many different directions there is a need to cross bridges to arrive at a common destination. Declan Doyle Editor 9 10 STIMULATING STAKEHOLDER INVOLVEMENT Victoria W. Thoresen Hedmark University College, Hamar, Norway 11 12 How is stakeholder involvement stimulated? War is without a doubt the most effective means of stimulating stakeholder involvement. But paradoxically, war brings destruction and death to those very things the stakeholder tries to maintain. War does not contribute to the building of bridges. Could it be the fear of losing that which one has a vested interest in which drives the individual to accept being drawn into armed conflicts? Fear is definitely a strong motivating factor. Both the “fear of losing” as well as the “fear of not being able to have” forces people to get involved. The majority of wars have been and still are, being fought over possession of natural resources despite ideological excuses. The modern concept of stakeholder involvement is, however, not based only on concern for negative consequences although the lessons we are learning about destruction of the environment and climate change are serious and clearly colored with anxiety about the future. Stakeholder involvement is per definition, proactive rather than merely reactive. It is constructive and cooperative rather than merely accusative. It is like a bridge which brings two distinctly separate points into contact. Stakeholder involvement is civic action in areas previously restricted to owners, producers, legislators and scientists. It is founded on the idea of universal social responsibility. Why is there an increase in stakeholder involvement? There are several reasons for the growth of stakeholder involvement in recent decades. The significant increase in the number of democracies in recent years has strengthened the role of the active citizen. (1) The growth of digital communication as a means of expressing one’s opinions has provided activists and interest organizations with powerful tools. Media have even begun to referring to “the user revolution”. The fact that corporate actors have such a dominant position in determining priorities and maintaining power in society has highlighted the need for improving the balance between freedom for commercial endeavors and the safeguarding of consumer rights, social development and environmental quality. (2) The inbuilt sensitivity of the global market to consumer decisions has transformed the consumer into a strategic economic force to be reckoned with. There is increased public interest in assuring that firms, governments and organizations behave in a more balanced, socially responsible manner and report publicly on their behaviour. There is also heightened sensitivity to information about how the consequences of production and consumption affect not only one’s nearest family, friends, or colleagues but also human beings all over the globe. Concepts such as “needs”, “contentment” and “development” have altered their meaning. No longer does one only look at GNP to define growth. Issues of well being, life quality, choice and participatory governance fill 13 international declarations and guidelines for the human development of nations. The consequences of our lifestyle choices are being measured in many ways such as by ecological footprints. The marginalized and helpless are increasingly more visible and being heard to a greater extent than ever before. Social Responsibility—the ideological foundation The ethical and ideological foundation for much stakeholder involvement is the concept of social responsibility. Social responsibility, though connected to the concepts of justice and caring, is not something constant, solid, set and stagnant. It is in a state of continual transformation and dependent upon individuals being able to identify values and recognize patterns and processes. It requires the quiet change of individuals adjusting their lifestyles and

The author emphasizes the importance of these sources for research on the history and culture of Polish Jews in the 17th and 18th centuries. He also specifies the types of documents related to Jewish issues authenticated in these books (e.g. manifestations and lawsuits, declarations of the Radom Tribunal), as well as current source publications and internet databases containing selected documents from Ukrainian archives. The Central State Historical Archive in Lviv (CDIAL) (known as the Bernadine Ar- chive) and the Central State Historical Archive in Kyiv (CDIAUK) both have exten- sive collections of records of the so-called castle courts (sądy grodzkie), also known as local Starost courts (sądy starościńskie) for the nobility: from the Bełz and Ruthe- nian Voivodeships in the Lviv archive; and from the Łuck, Podolia, Kyiv, and Bracław Voivodeships in the Kyiv archive. This is particularly important because – in the light of Jewish population counts taken in 1764–1765 for the purpose of poll tax assessment – these areas were highly populated by Jews.

  • Eastern Europe - Historical Glossary
    EASTERN EUROPE - HISTORICAL GLOSSARY Large numbers of people now living in western Europe, north and south America, South Africa and Australia are from families that originated in eastern Europe. As immigrants, often during the late 19th century, their origin will have been classified by immigration officials and census takers according to the governing power of the European territory from which they had departed. Thus many were categorised as Russian, Austrian or German who actually came from provinces within those empires which had cultures and long histories as nations in their own right. In the modern world, apart from Poland and Lithuania, most of these have become largely unknown and might include Livonia, Courland, Galicia, Lodomeria, Volhynia, Bukovina, Banat, Transylvania, Walachia, Moldavia and Bessarabia. During the second half of the 20th century, the area known as "Eastern Europe" largely comprised the countries to the immediate west of the Soviet Union (Russia), with communist governments imposed or influenced by Russia, following occupation by the Russian "Red Army" during the process of defeating the previous military occupation of the German army in 1944-45. Many of these countries had experienced a short period of independence (1918-1939) between the two World Wars, but before 1918 most of the territory had been within the three empires of Russia, Austria-Hungary and Ottoman Turkey. The Ottoman empire had expanded from Turkey into Europe during the 14th-15th centuries and retained control over some territories until 1918. The commonwealth of Poland and Lithuania was established in the 16th century and for two centuries ruled over the territories north of Hungary, while the Ottoman empire ruled over those to the south, but between 1721-1795 the Russian empire took control of the Baltic states and eastern Poland and during a similar period Austria-Hungary took control of southern Poland and the northern and western territories of the Ottoman empire.

  • Synagogues in Podkarpacie – Prolegomenon to Research
    TECHNICAL TRANSACTIONS 9/2019 ARCHITECTURE AND URBAN PLANNING DOI: 10.4467/2353737XCT.19.092.10874 SUBMISSION OF THE FINAL VERSION: 30/07/2019 Dominika Kuśnierz-Krupa orcid.org/0000-0003-1678-4746 [email protected] Faculty of Architecture, Cracow University of Technology Lidia Tobiasz AiAW Design Office Lidia Tobiasz Synagogues in Podkarpacie – prolegomenon to research Synagogi Podkarpacia – prolegomena do badań Abstract This paper is a prolegomenon to the research on the history, architecture and state of preservation of the synagogues still surviving in the Podkarpacie region. After almost a millennium of Jewish presence in the area, despite wars and the Holocaust, 31 buildings or the ruins of former synagogues have remained until the present. It can be claimed that a Jewish cultural heritage of considerable value has survived in the Podkarpacie region to this day, and therefore requires protection and revalorisation. The paper presents the state of research in this area and an outline of the Jewish history of Podkarpacie, as well as a preliminary description of the preserved synagogues with regards to their origin, functional layout and state of preservation. Keywords: Podkarpacie region, synagogues, history, state of preservation Streszczenie Niniejszy artykuł jest prolegomeną do badań nad historią, architekturą oraz stanem zachowania istniejących jeszcze na terenie Podkarpacia synagog. Z prawie tysiącletniej obecności Żydów na tym terenie, pomimo wojen i zagłady, do dnia dzisiejszego pozostało 31 budynków lub ich ruin, w których kiedyś mieściły się synagogi. Można zatem stwierdzić, że do dzisiaj zasób zabytkowy kultury żydowskiej na Podkarpaciu jest pokaźny, a co za tym idzie, wymagający ochrony i rewaloryzacji.

Regional identity and the renewal of spatial administrative structures: The case of Podolia, Ukraine Anatoliy MELNYCHUK a, Oleksiy GNATIUK b * Abstract The relationships between territorial identities and administrative divisions are investigated in this article, in an attempt to reveal the possible role of territorial identity as an instrument for administrative-territorial reform. The study focuses on Podolia – a key Ukrainian geographical region with a long and complicated history. A survey of residents living throughout the region showed that the majority of respondents had developed strong identification with both historical regions and modern administrative units. The close interaction between “old” and “new” identities, however, caused their mutual alterations, especially in changes in the perceived borders of historical regions. This means that the “old” historical identities have strong persistence but simultaneously survive constant transformations, incorporating the so-called “thin” elements, which fits the concept of dynamic regional institutionalisation and the formation of hybrid territorial identities. Consequently, although territorial identity may be used to make administrative territorial units more comprehensible for people, the development of modern administrative units based on hybrid identities, which include both thick and thin elements, may be another feasible solution that involves stakeholders in regional development.

Redkva, Candidate of Philology, Associate Professor Chernivtsi National University named after Y. Fedkovych, Ukraine The historiacal - etymological analysis of archaic Slavic topoformant *-išče // *-isko, preserved in the oikonymy of Halych and Lviv Lands of the Ruthenian Voivodeship, is carried out. On the basis of oikonymic materials from the majority of Slavic territories appellative lexemes, that formed base for the emergence of settlements names both on analyzable territory and on Pan-Slavic territory, are reconstructed on Old Slavonic level. Presented mechanisms of formation of the historical oikonymy on the basis of reconstructed appellatives showed autochthony of the Slavic population, which has long been living on these territories.
