Images of ‘paradise’ are average representations of e.g. different sights, beaches, etc. What happens, when a paradise has to incorporate ‘unpleasant’ subjects into its imagery? Shifting into the average consists of establishing and reproducing conventional highlights in relation to their shadows. In this vein, also anthropological production is average, its ‘paradise’ being chains of citations, and her shadow mass media practices. However, by continuing to cultivate its ethnographic presence, the discipline is moving on. The author explores shifts into, and moves out of the average representations on the case of Sri Lanka´s tourist.

The author presents a wide background of the conflicts that have taken place in Afghanistan since the Soviet invasion up to the contemporary times. He describes the syndrome of the so called Afghan pot and its implications. Moreover, he reveals alternative attempts to resolve the conflict in a peaceful way as well as a military one. The aim of the article is to answer the question whether the international peace keeping forces can be effective in pacifying the main hotbed of the global terrorism, which radiates from Afghanistan to the whole world and is a real threat to peace and stability. It is absolutely crucial for the allied forces to draw conclusions from the previous failures. The author used a theoretical analysis of works selected from the bibliography.

The article examines the perception of the relationship between war and art in Max Dvořák’s work, exemplified on papers dedicated to works of art by Francisco de Goya (“Desastres de la guerra”) and Albrecht Dürer (“Apocalypse”). The influential Central European art historian thought that the war experience had no causal effect on the spiritual life, but may have, to some extent as a kind of catalyst, amplified the already existing collective spiritual development.

This article reconstructs the hidden dialogue between Johan Huizinga and Carl Schmitt that emerged throughout the 1930s. Huizinga phrased an early critique on Schmitt’s friend-enemy distinction. It appears that throughout the 1930s the Dutch historian had a thorough Auseinandersetzung with Schmitt, running from his In the shadow of tomorrow up to his Homo Ludens. Schmitt, in his turn, responded to Huizinga’s criticism, albeit somewhat implicitly, first, in a small text from 1938 and later in his book on Hamlet. In mapping the emergence of this “dialogue” it appears that their disagreement concerns the relationship between play and war. In particular, they have conflicting ideas on the state of exception, or, to use the German word on which the entire dialogue hinges: Ernstfall. To properly assess the possible relationship between play and war it is first necessary to reconstruct this dialogue and to consider the role of the state of exception within it.

One of the basic functions of myths is to explain reality, sanction the actions taken and give them a desirable meaning. Another function of mythical stories is to transmit the models of proper behaviour, ethical principles, norms and values personified by the hero that are important to a given community. Myths help people to understand their past and project their future. Such a myth has taken shape in the area of popular culture and consciousness of the Poles under the influence of the television serial and the book 'Four Men in a Tank', by Janusz Przymanowski. It has become an inseparable part of the discourse of collective memory about World War II and childhood spent in People's Poland. Its chief motif is joint work in the name of the common weal and a larger unity of ideas. The author shows many convergences between Janusz Przymanowski's book, folk heroic epic and a magic fairy-tale. They are all inscribed in a larger epic tradition of the fight against the German invader. The heroes of the novel and the film created on its basis are a synthesis of the types of folk heroism, an archetype present in many soldiers' memoirs, tales and stories.

In the article the author attempts to outline three different concepts of critical thinking which are - in his opinion - strongly present in the contemporary philosophical, aesthetical and social-scientific reflection. He characterizes the first concept in a somewhat radical way as Act of War. The concept is characterized by adopting a radical form of perspectivism and perceiving society or culture as something fundamentally constituted by power relations. Therefore the working methods typical of this type of thinking can preferably be described by means of local and temporary strategies and tactics. He considers the second type of thinking as a positive and creative pre-definition of premises of historical-political discourse, which is in the backgrounds of the previous type of thinking. The author borrows Michel Foucault´s term "the aesthetics of existence" to denominate this type of critical thinking. The essential characteristic of this type of thinking is - in his view - perceiving criticism as a historical-practical test of frontiers, as an experimental tool which enables us to create ourselves. He also takes marginal notice of the third type of critical thinking which is defined as an analytical research of the conditions of truthfulness critical thinking which perceives itself as a guard of the frontier that cannot be crossed. In order to illustrate all three types of critical thinking, the author finds it most appropriate to use Michel Foucault´s reflections.

The article briefly deals with the beginning and history of the traditional Christian doctrine of 'a just war'. Thereby it builds up a groundwork for the reflection of contemporary affirmations in the official Catholic Church documents which further develop this doctrine. It discusses the justification of war, particularly with respect to a potential threat of a nuclear conflict and an immediate threat to humanity of worldwide terrorism. It examines possible and justifiable means needed for better understanding and the preservation of peaceful co-existence in Christian ethical thinking.

The paper deals with the characteristics, modalities and conceptual ground of Foucualt’s appreciation of historical analysis. In the first part it focuses on the results yielded by the archaeological study of discursive practices. The analysis of its problematic points is followed by the explanation of Foucault’s method called genealogy. Among the results this method has brought the concepts of bio-politics and bio-power are underlined. The last part of the study is devoted to Foucault’s reception of the famous Clausewitz’s aphorism concerning the relationship between war and policy.

The paper focuses on the fact that, in recent political philosophy, we have witnessed a critical overturning of an earlier philosophical idealism that invoked friendship as the destination of the political and, in its place, of what the author will call a non-philosophical understanding that has determined a certain war (pólemos), and the “friend-enemy” relation, as the permanent ground from which any critical or strategic understanding of the political must now depart. This tendency can most clearly be illustrated by Jacques Derrida’s commentaries on the German jurist Karl Schmitt and the German philosopher Martin Heidegger. In this article, the author will address Derrida’s overt polemic and/or Auseinandersetzung with these two thinkers in his later writings. First, she will discuss his polemic with Schmitt from The Politics of Friendship (1990), and will conclude with some preliminary remarks on the culmination of this polemic in his reflections on Heidegger from the same period.

The article has to do with the issue of war and violence in the thought of Emmanuel Levinas. According to him war is not only a traumatic historical event, but also a peculiar ontological state resulting from the peculiar way of thinking of Europeans. He considers how war is connected with the notions of whole, identity, and objectivity, why history is at fault, and why the only solution is eschatology, which challenges individuals and calls them to responsibility. The relationship between war and morality is at the center of the thought of Levinas. He sensitizes the reader to the fact that war is always a latent possibility, a constant hidden threat, always unexpected. War, as well as violence and force broadly understood, always change the world order, and with it accepted principles, rules, and values. It is an event that seeks to eliminate otherness, that tends to a uniform whole by leveling differences. Pluralism must give way to the totalizing aspirations of war.

This article analyses evolution of the post-Soviet Armenian foreign policy during the first fourteen years of Armenia's existence as an independent state. The introductory section briefly analyses key regional factors into which the Armenian diplomacy developed - with an emphasis on the historical context connected with unsettled relations with Turkey, the most significant neighbour, and Russia and with respect to the internal development of this small south Caucasian country. Important factors of Armenian foreign policy regarding Nagorno-Karabakh and its neighbour Azerbaijan are analysed together with the (non)recognition of the Armenian genocide and its significance to the relations between Yerevan and Ankara but also Armenia-Russia and Armenia-Iran.

The article describes chosen Yugoslavian and post-Yugoslavian texts 'zenskog pisma' - women's postmodern literature. Early 'écriture feminine' works revealed matters of woman's body and position in the patriarchal world of male culture. Emancipatory attitudinal narrations soon transformed into critical emancipatory discourse rooted in postmodern theories (Gender Studies, Queer Studies, Culural Criticism, Postcolonial Studies, Subaltern Studies) interpreting various aspects of pressure, repression, bodily and ideological violence. The end of Yugoslavia, the civil war, the ethnic cleansings and the rapes on women resulted in the inclusion of the postcolonial perspective into the attitudinal cultural narrations. Owing to this, the analysis of violence encapsulates new issues such as: totalitarism, nationalism, war crimes and victims. The cognitive interpretative horizon not only includes colonisation strategies and enslavement of the mentality by the totalitarian system of sovietisation but also the hegemony of Western Europe for which the Balkans and Central-East Europe have always been the Other. The authors bring back historical memory, reach the 'white spots', call for a new, responsible, independent and ethical entity that would be able to stand up to the expansive and dominant colonial mind.
