Fundamental legal problems of surrogate motherhood. Global perspective.
The observation that mater semper certa est remains accurate under most legal systems in the world. Maternity is defined as the personal status (filiation) of a woman who gave birth to a child. It is typically complemented by the fatherhood of the man from whom the child biologically originates (often quem nuptiae demonstrant). However, in some states, a kind of competitive way of acquiring the legal status of mother and father (or “homosexual parents A and B”) has been introduced via concluding a contract with a surrogate mother. Usually with a woman coming from poorer societies and with the assistance of professional intermediaries and organizers. The postulates to change substantive f...
Bruno Schulz: An Artist, a Murder, and the Hijacking of History
A fresh portrait of the Polish-Jewish writer and artist, and a gripping account of the secret operation to rescue his last artworks. The twentieth-century artist Bruno Schulz was born an Austrian, lived as a Pole, and died a Jew. First a citizen of the Habsburg monarchy, he would, without moving, become the subject of the West Ukrainian People’s Republic, the Second Polish Republic, the USSR, and, finally, the Third Reich. Yet to use his own metaphor, Schulz remained throughout a citizen of the Republic of Dreams. He was a master of twentieth-century imaginative fiction who mapped the anxious perplexities of his time; Isaac Bashevis Singer called him “one of the most remarkable writers w...

Haller's Polish Army in France
"The Polish Army in France (Armia Polska Francyi) -- commonly known as Haller's Army (Armia Hallera), in recognition of their commanding general, and the Blue Army, named for their French-issued blue uniforms - was a volunteer army recruited from 47 centers and camp Niagara in the United States and Canada, starting in October 1917 and ending in March 1919. This fighting force was comprised predominantly of Polish nationals living in the United States and Canada who volunteered to fight in France towards the last year of World War I, and to continue fighting in Poland for its independence from all neighboring governments. What started out as part of the Great War to end all wars, ended up as the Polish-Soviet War of 1919-1921"--Page 15.

Sądownictwo pokoju . Rozwiązania zagraniczne z perspektywy krajowej
Ostatnie lata w krajowym dyskursie prawniczym i politycznym przyniosły liczne głosy opowiadające się za wprowadzeniem do Polski rozwiązań określanych jako „sądy pokoju” lub „sędziowie pokoju”. Instytucje te stanowią najczęściej składnik zreformowanego systemu wymiaru sprawiedliwości, charakteryzujący się efektywnością, i postrzegane są w społeczeństwie jako instytucja sprawna i bliska obywatelom. W większości porządków prawnych, w których sądy pokoju występują, podobnie w projektach ustaw, które w ostatnim czasie zostały zgłoszone w Polsce, stanowią one specyficzny organ ochrony prawnej. Publikacja składa się z trzech części oraz zbioru materiał...
