  • Patterns of the Migration During the Hybrid Warfare and Its Conflictogenity
    Torun Internaonal Studies No. 1 (7) 2014 2019, No. 1 (12), pp. 61–73 Published online September, 2019 DOI: hp://dx.doi.org/10.12775/TIS.2019.004 Yuriy Danyk*1 ORCID: 0000-0001-6990-8656 Maryna Semenkova**2 ORCID: 0000-0002-4143-5671 Piotr Pacek***3 ORCID: 0000-0002-2182-2316 THE CONFLICTOGENITY OF MIGRATION AND ITS PATTERNS DURING THE HYBRID WARFARE ABSTRACT The population’s tendency to protest or to get involved in conflict can be used as a method of hybrid warfare in a targeted country or region. Frustrations occur due to the actual or artificially contrived resentment in a community or among some population groups. The deterioration of social and economic conditions and the lack of opportunities to improve one’s standard of living as well as the growing sense of danger or a real threat to life and secu- rity – all these elements have given rise to intensive migration processes in many regions of the world. Consequently, it is the main aspect of the modern world that needs being taken heed of. The influx of refugees and migrants settling down in the new areas cause the trans- formation of horizontal inequality among the migrants themselves and between migrants and locals. The intensification of migration processes stems from the peculiarities of the hybrid conflicts such as a powerful cognitive, informational and psychological influence, the use of different technologies including the manipulative ones. The possibility of managing migra- tion processes and, to a certain extent the migrants’ potential for conflict, is becoming the * Ivan Chernyakhovsky National Defense University of Ukraine, e-mail: [email protected] * Ivan Chernyakhovsky National Defense University of Ukraine, e-mail: [email protected] * War Studies University, Warsaw, Poland, e-mail: [email protected] 62 Y D, M S, P P feasible instrument to break down the system of regional and international security through spreading conflicts to the places towards which the migration flows are directed.

The investigated methods (techniques) for increasing the noise immunity of radio communication with the FHSS do not take into account the influence of transmitters and fail to predict the load of the radio frequency spectrum. The purpose of this work is the development of the algorithm for the practical implementation of the method of increasing the noise immunity of the radio communication equipment with pseudo randomization of the operating frequency to increase the noise immunity of the radio communica- tion equipment. The essence of the proposed algorithm, is the rational distribution of working frequencies between the radio communication devices with pseudo randomization of the operating frequency taking into account the mutual influ- ence of transceivers on each other.

  • Soviet Vilnius: Ideology and the Formation of Identity
    LITHUANIAN HISTORICAL STUDIES 15 2010 ISSN 1392-2343 PP. 171-189 SOVIET VILNIUS: IDEOLOGY AND THE FORMATION OF IDENTITY Živilė Mikailienė ABSTRACT This article analyses the importance of historical narratives, myths and symbols in the process of the formation of the Soviet identity of Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. Throughout the Soviet period Vilnius was one of the Soviet capitals where the regime made every effort to modify the identity of the city in compliance with the prevailing Soviet ideology: to establish the ideological centre of the country, to shape the city so that it would meet the needs of the new 'So­ viet citizen'and to alter its historical identity - erase the old historic sites, historical memory and form the new identity of the city. The most obvious manifestations of 'rewritten 'histoty can be obsen-ed in the physical shape of the city - its architectural/urban development, changes of street names and the erection of new Soviet monuments. The said tangible signs and symbols of authority as well as the intangible ones - new historic narrative of the Soviet city, myths about its having a revolutionary past, the Great Patriotic War and the idea of progress were aimed at the legitimation of the regime, the formation of the citizenry 's new identity and social indoctrination. Introduction The segment in the history of Vilnius embracing Soviet times has received little attention from researchers. Paradoxically, the last fundamental history of the city was published in the late 1960s and early 1970s: in 1968 'Vilniaus miesto istorija nuo seniausių laikų iki Spalio revoliucijos' (The History of the City of Vilnius from the Ancient Times to the October Revolution)' by J.

  • ENGLISH Original: RUSSIAN Delegation of the Russian Federation
    PC.DEL/429/16 8 April 2016 ENGLISH Original: RUSSIAN Delegation of the Russian Federation STATEMENT BY MR. ALEXANDER LUKASHEVICH, PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION, AT THE 1095th MEETING OF THE OSCE PERMANENT COUNCIL 7 April 2016 On plans to demolish monuments in Poland Mr. Chairperson, We should like to draw your attention to the extremely alarming trend in one OSCE country towards destroying its common historical heritage. The President of the Polish Institute of National Remembrance, Łukasz Kamiński, announced on 30 March 2016 that in the near future Poland planned to demolish over 500 Soviet memorial sites dedicated to the period of the Second World War. We have already raised the issue here of the unacceptable desecration in Poland of monuments and graves to the Red Army soldiers who liberated the country from the Nazis. Unfortunately, acts of vandalism have continued to be committed in their dozens, with the Polish authorities effectively failing to intervene and never showing much appetite to search for those responsible for this effrontery. As early as September 2015, demolition commenced of a monument to Army General Ivan Chernyakhovsky, which had stood in the town of his death, Pieniężno. Recently the monument to the liberator of Poland, which had incidentally been erected from funds donated by Poles themselves, was destroyed once and for all. At this point in time, by dint of the efforts of the Institute of National Remembrance, the Polish Government has elevated the campaign against monuments to the State level. One cannot help but draw parallels with the actions of the Ukrainian authorities, obliterating everything connected to Ukraine’s history as part of the USSR, all in the name of “decommunization”.

The book „»Pomniki Wdzięczności« Armii Czerwonej w Polsce Ludowej i w III Rzeczypospolitej [„Monuments of Gratitude” of the Red Army in the Polish People's Republic and the Third Republic] by Dominika Czarnecka is the first attempt at a synthetic presentation of the fate of monuments of glory of the Red Army in postwar Poland. „Out of nearly 500 monuments, which were erected in Poland, about a hundred is still standing,” said the director of Public Education Office Andrzej Zawistowski. He explained that we are talking only about the monuments erected outside permanent cemeteries where soldiers were buried. ”Other towns should follow the example of Pieniężno, where by the decision of local authorities the monument of gen. Ivan Chernyakhovsky, responsible, among other things for the liquidation of the Home Army in the Vilnius region, was dismantled,” said Dr.
