The paper deals with the relation between utilitarianism and moral intuitions in the context of philosophical justification of human rights. The author responds to Martin Hapla’s effort to show the harmony of these three categories and offers some (counter-)examples that partially complicate the idea of such harmony. In the center of the author’s attention is the question of sacrifice of the innocent. He points particularly to the issue of civilian immunity in time of war and also the issue of inadmissibility of torture. He tries to explain the difference between these phenomena, which are covered by absolute rights nowadays, and other phenomena which represent “ordinary” human rights situations. From this difference, he draws a conclusion about the utilitarian permissibility of exceptional legal sacrifices of innocents, which, however, is not in a complete accordance with our moral intuition.

Modern emergency vehicle driver training demands the employment of organizational and technical solutions whichallow training in situations typical of the tasks that they undertake. Training in fast driving is one element of this process. Availabletechnologies allow us to supplement this process with training aimed at gaining an ability to react in situations too dangerous to beimplemented on the training track. Account must be taken of vehicle failures such as tyres bursting at high speed, as well as terroristattacks, chases in urban areas with heavy traffic, and so on. The driver must be able to deal with obstacles including blockages createdby other vehicles, react to deliberate collisions and attempts at “being forced off the road”, and use the vehicle as an instrument of force.All this should be undertaken in differing weather conditions with different frictional qualities of road surface and in different areas:mountains, plains, woodland, etc. The ability to implement such training in a cost-effective and at the same time safe manner canonly be done through the use of vehicle simulators. One of the few available solutions dedicated to drivers of emergency vehicles, thattake into account the requirements outlined above, is the Emergency Vehicle Driving Simulator for Typical and Extreme Conditions.

This article deals with central and eastern European national legislation on private military and security companies.Since such companies became important actors and very often active participants, in many international and non‑internationalconflicts, it is an urgent need for more regulations in this sphere of international relations. Existing international law, and especiallyinternational humanitarian law does not define the term private military nor private security company. Consequently, there is noregulation of their participation in armed conflicts. The Author presents a clear point of view that there is a need for adoptionof internationally binding instrument since existing national legislations are neither sufficient nor effective. Additionally, existinggaps in both national and international legal regulations become the reasons of serious human rights violations. Soft lawmechanisms such as International Code of Conduct or Montreux Documents have not helped much in this matter, especially havenot assured adequate reparations for victims. This article analyses national law of such states like Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary,mentions the lack of regulations in Bosnia and Herzegovina and exceptions in European Union secondary regulations. Authorexamines materials of the Human Rights Council and Special Procedures Working Group on the use of mercenaries that provideclear definitions and reasoning in the topic of private military and security companies. Analyses of those documents bring a clearconclusion on the weak points of existing laws and the need why internationally binding instrument such as universally acceptedconvention is necessary.

The article presents issues concerning juvenile prisoners of three special camps in Kozielsk, Starobielsk and Ostashkov. The author draws attention to the lack of definition of the legal status of minors after 1918, and thus — the lack of provisions on ensuring the safety of children in the international standards governing the treatment of prisoners of war in force during World War II and internal legal acts of the Soviet Union. The article emphasizes that the participation of children in armed conflicts was regulated as late as ten years after the outbreak of World War II in international humanitarian law, adopting on 12 August 1949 “The Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War” (Fourth Geneva Convention), under which children are entitled to special treatment or protection measures. The provisions of conventions protecting children during the war included, among others, regulations concerning the creation of special zones and sanitary facilities, evacuation from the besieged zone, provision of necessary food and clothing, provision of medical and hospital care, education or transfer to a neutral country. The author notes that the Fourth Geneva Convention does not contain a provision on special protection and care for juveniles, and that children during warfare are classified exclusively as civilian population. The circumstances of the Soviet captivity of minors after September 17, 1939, their stay in and leaving the camps, the reasons for selection, after which they were left alive and not included in the “death transports”, described in the article, make it possible to determine the number of rescued and murdered.

The authors presented basic information relating to creating, development and evolution of international humanitarian law for military conflicts. Respecting international humanitarian law is another important problem. It is well known how many crimes were committed in the past and are being committed now during military conflicts and how seldom the people responsible for them are punished. Undoubtedly it proves the inefficiency to execute this law, however, it does not impair the sense of its existence and the need to familiarise the soldiers in particular with its provisions.

Myślenie o wojnie oznacza stawianie czoła ideom i teoriom znacznie odmiennym od tych, które napotykamy w codziennym życiu. Nawet dobrze znane koncepcje wymagają redefinicji. Pośród idei, które możemy uznać za intelektualne narzędzia wojny, należy wskazać dwie zasadnicze, towarzyszące każdemu rozważaniu o wojnie jako takiej. Są to umiar i rozsądek. Obie powinny być obecne w myśleniu o wojnie, niezależnie od tego, czy analizie poddawany jest jej polityczny, prawny, etyczny czy ludzki wymiar; i z drugiej strony niezależnie od tego, czy rozważamy jej znaczenie dla całej wspólnoty czy dla życia/losu jednostki. Przedłożona tu pierwsza część artykułu skupia się na teoretycznych rozważaniach, podczas gdy dalsze analizy będą wskazywały na konsekwencje, jakie myślenie w duchu umiaru i rozsądku wnosi do prawa dotyczącego konfliktów zbrojnych.

Thinking of war means facing ideas and theories much different than those known and good established in everyday life. Even well known concept demands redefinitions. Among ideas understood as intellectual tools of war one can indicate two crucial, accompanying each consideration about war as such. Those are moderation and reasoning. Both should be present in out thinking about war, no matter if we would analyze political, legal, ethical or humanitarian dimensions of war or – in the other hand – no matter if we would consider its meaning for whole community or life/fate of individual human being. The first part of this article focuses on theoretical considerations, while further analyzes will indicate the consequences that thinking in the spirit of moderation and reasoning has in theory and practice of international humanitarian law.

The issue of death penalty under international law can be described by pointing out specific legal norms or lack of them in treaties regarding human rights (e.g. International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights), humanitarian law (i.e. Geneva Conventions), international criminal law (i.e. Rome Statute). Moreover, international institutions address issue of death penalty in soft law and in judicature. Following history of those norms, abolistic tendencies are explicit and particularly strong in the post-World War II international society.

PL

Zagadnienie kary śmierci w aktach prawnomiędzynarodowych można opisać poprzez wskazanie odpowiednich unormowań lub ich braku w traktatach dotyczących dziedziny praw człowieka (jak np. Międzynarodowy Pakt Praw Obywatelskich i Politycznych), prawa humanitarnego (m.in. konwencje genewskie) czy międzynarodowego prawa karnego (m.in. Statut Rzymski). Organy międzynarodowe odnoszą się również do tej problematyki w tzw. soft law oraz w orzecznictwie. Śledząc historię tych unormowań, szczególnie widoczny jest trend abolicjonistyczny, charakteryzujący społeczność międzynarodową, który zauważalnie przybrał na sile w okresie po II wojnie światowej.

In the face of various local, regional, and global threats, the protection of human rights develops and increases its importance. National and international legal acts define catalogues of human rights and create institutional and procedural conditions for their protection. However, apart from that, it is also necessary to use other tools that will support activities for the protection of human rights in various dimensions while respecting the law. Undoubtedly, one of such tools can be GIS. The potential of GIS is in providing information and responding to a threat, and locating the place and extent of human rights violations, which allows for an ex-post response. GIS can improve geographic literacy and improve our knowledge of where human rights violations are occurring. It can improve public awareness of human rights by placing them geographically. GIS can also support various projects aimed at the protection of human rights. Due to the topicality of the topic and the increase in phenomena affecting human beings and human rights, especially in the context of military operations, it is reasonable to deepen this issue and indicate the detailed scopes of GIS application in the service of human rights. The analysis will also identify the opportunities and risks associated with this tool in achieving human rights objectives.

Every armed conflict brings with it extreme inconveniences and injustices towards the society that is covered by it. Therefore, all legal norms that provide minimum human dignity and security should be universally used. Humanitarian law has a long history and has changed over many years, starting from the mid-nineteenth century. Its elementary rules of application are essential to ensure the best possible efficiency. The conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina shows very well how humanitarian law was not only applied, but also whether it was effective and sufficient, with the important role of the International Criminal Court in mind.

The article discusses the policy of unified Germany in the UN Security Council in the terms of 1995-1996, 2003-2004, 2011-2012 and 2019-2020, focusing in particular on the last two-year period. It aims to identify the main areas of German involvement and outline the process of shaping a vision of Germany's global role. The subsequent terms of Germany in the UN SC are characterized by increasing involvement, which led to taking over by Germany in 2019-2020 of the global presidency (or co-presidency) in Germany's priority areas of responsibility, which include: conflict prevention, counteracting climate change and its consequences for security, strengthening the protection of women, supporting compliance with humanitarian law and disarmament. Concomitantly a second thesis may be put forward that in these areas in the years 2019-2020 Germany’s activity took a formative form. The last German term in UN SC also showed Germany’s increasing effectiveness in integrating large groups of countries around its demands and priorities. Those theses were verified by inductive inference combining distributed source data. The research problem is explained by two approaches: (1) individualistic, interpreting Germany's aspirations to shape global politics in accordance with the assumptions appropriate to its internal documents, mainly the coalition agreements of the ruling parties, and (2) structuralist, perceiving the manner and scope of the states' involvement in the global peace and security processes as an inevitable process leading to the commonality of professed values and mutual adjustment of states.

International humanitarian law of armed conflicts is based on conventions from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries and from the period after the Second World War. They contain fundamental and impassable rules of applying this law in specific situations. Unfortunately, there are cases of numerous violations of these laws, and one of the conflicts that became particularly bad in this respect was the war in Georgia in 2008. Numerous examples and reactions, not only directly involved in the conflict, but also of external institutions, show the scale of the problem of non-compliance and marginalization of humanitarian law.

Wydarzenia w Iraku, Afganistanie, byłej Jugosławii wskazują, że wojny przyjmują współcześnie zróżnicowane formy. To nie tylko działania z obszaru kontaktów międzynarodowych lub wewnętrznych. Wypadki np. w Libii, Syrii mogą być przykładem wojny domowej, ale ze względu na zaangażowanie w nie sił zewnętrznych (np. ataki lotnicze, blokady portów, kont bankowych, zakazy wjazdu dla dyktatora i jego rodziny oraz współpracowników, bariery dla emigrantów, pomoc powstańcom) oraz wydarzenia towarzyszące im w krajach sąsiednich, wskazują one na konieczność spojrzenia z perspektywy systemowej. Wojny te wejdą do historii jako przykład nowego typu, ze względu na poziom zaangażowania ruchów społecznych, wykorzystanie w nich zasobów cywilnych wraz z wojskowymi, w tym technologii z odrębnych systemów zarządzania działaniami społecznymi. Wojny ewoluują tak, jak inne działania społeczne, i można śledzić ich historie oraz próbować coś orzekać o ich przyszłości. W głównej części artykułu poruszane są historyczne wymiary wojny dla potrzeb zarysowania trendów w zakresie jej ustrukturalizowania, jako działania instytucjonalnego. Planowanie bezpieczeństwa narodowego jest niezbędnym elementem polityki wewnętrznej i zewnętrznej każdego państwa. W artykule poruszam również zagadnienie wojen przyszłości w takich aspektach, jak zmienność jej składowych i konsekwencje ich zmienności dla społeczeństw.

The events in Iraq, Afghanistan and Yugoslavia show that modern wars take different forms. They are not only actions in the area of international or national relations. The incidents such as the wars in Libya and Syria cannot be only the examples of civil wars, because the involvement of external forces (such as air attacks, the blockades of ports and bank accounts, no-exit for the dictator, his family and co-workers, barriers for immigrants, helping insurgents) and accompanying events in neighbouring countries are the arguments to perceive the war from the system perspective. The wars in Libya and Syria are the examples of a new type, because of the engagement of social movements, the use of civil and military resources, including technology, and the management systems of separate and social activities. War can be analysed as other areas of social activities. The main part of the article addresses the historical dimensions of war. It discusses some aspects of the variability of wars in the future. The national security planning, however, is an essential element of internal and external policies of each country. Therefore, it is important to analyse wars from the comparative perspective, too.

Following the end of the cold war, the incidence of statebuilding interventions has visibly increased in the case of dysfunctional (failed) states. Today, such interventionism in a good faith promotes liberal values and is believed to be in line with international legal regimes that makes it distinctive from neo-imperial politics. Even if state-building does not generally refer to regular warfare, it often takes analogous forms to occupation, which was codified in jus in bello at the beginning of the XXth century. While the occupation law requires occupants to maintain status quo on the occupying territory (article 43 of Hague Regulations), armed state-building is transformative by definition that seems to undermine conservative provisions of the former. The article presents traditional criteria for occupation in the Hague and Geneva conventions as well as prospects and limitations of its refinement (jus post bellum). In theory, such a redefinition could launch the formulation of the statebuilding regime, which aims to reduce deficits or double-standards in international state-building by focusing on the interests of local stakeholders of transformative projects. Hence, the Author addresses three interlocking issues: occupation within state-building, the occupation law and state-building, and transformative occupation as state-building.
