Временные предпочтения: отбор или социализация (исследование украинских студентов) Клочко, М.; Ордешук, П. Most economic theories assume that the discount people they apply to the future – the weight given to the future relative to the present in their decision making — is fixed, exogenously determined, and essentially the same across a society. Relevance of this assumption derives from the fact that this parameter of an individual’s choice is critical in determining the likelihood of a person’s engagement in cooperative action, as well as the likelihood that they will abide by democratic principles and participate constructively in the development of efficient and cooperative markets. Using a sample of Ukrainian youth — those who have emigrated to the West to complete their studies as compared to those who remain in Ukraine — we question the validity of this assumption. We suggest that not only are those students who travel to the West different from Ukraine’s student population generally in terms of the time discounting they apply to the future, but also that this discount changes as a function of one’s length of stay in the West so as to make them more amenable to cooperative action.

Есть ли прок для партий от манипуляций с избирательной системой? Положение о выборах и избирательная инженерия в Польше (1989–1993) Каминьский, М. Electoral reforms had profound political consequences for postcommunist Poland. The majority system promoted the fall of communism, while later changes to the electoral law helped the former communists to reclaim power. Despite the play for high stakes and top priority given to electoral design by political actors, their manipulative efforts were hardly rewarded. Although the political parties were ex ante seat maximizers, they supported the electoral law that ex post would have given them the most seats about as frequently as they supported the closest competitor of the above mentioned one. The reasons for their miscalculations included a lack of methodological expertise, unexpected shifts in voter preferences, transitionspecific poll biases, as well as new entrants and coalitions that emerged in the period between the introduction of the new electoral law and elections. No significant differences among the various kinds of parties were found. The results do show that the effectiveness of manipulation has strongly increased over time.

Характеристика городского населения согласно данным Всеобщей национальной переписи 2002 года Стык, Ю. It is the first introductory of Polish urban population emerging from the National Census 2002. It gives an overview of demographical structure dynamics of Polish urban population in comparison to the rural one. The analysis covers such areas as the respondents’ marital status, educational structure, migrations and spatial mobility, family and children, professional activity, unemployment, sources of income and living conditions. The collected data show the progressing differentiation of economic situation and social status of urban population. Unemployment causes significant worsening of living conditions.

Национальные и этнические меньшинства в Польше в свете переписи населения 2002 года Бабиньский, Г. The following article attempts to analyze and interpret the findings of the National Census 2002 with respect to national and ethnic minorities. Apart from a concise summary of numerical data from particular voivodships, much attention is paid to such issues as: methodological remarks regarding questions about the respondents’ national identity entailed in the census and the effects of asking such questions, factors distorting one’s declaration of national identity, some comments and reactions of minorities to the census results. I hold a more analytic approach towards the three biggest minorities: German, Ukrainian and Belarussian. The census results provide many important data but only when we treat them as complementary information and also when the numbers are somehow considered relative to the situation of a particular minority, as well as the direction and stage of the situation’s change. Thanks to the census we know much more about national and ethnic minorities in Poland. This knowledge is, however, secondary, partial, allowing more for formulating hypotheses than firm conclusions. For example we know for sure that there exists a Silesian identification functioning as a basic ethnic identity, which cannot be narrowed to regional one. However, we do not know much about the further evolution of this community.
