The two years of the COVID-19 pandemic proved to be a great challenge for the managerial practices of the private and the public institutions alike. In the uncertain world affected by a global health crisis as well as other types of crises; humanistic and post-humanistic management methods appear to provide a kinder, gentler alternative for directors, employees, and users of cultural institutions. Implementation of such practices was attempted and tested in the Dąbrowa Tarnowska (Małopolska region) Municipal Public Library, with a survey conducted among its users. The following paper describes the functioning of the municipal library during the pandemic, in which the government restrictions on the use of public spaces were enforced. It also analyses the users' acceptance (in numbers and percentages) of the measures applied in this cultural institution to minimise effects of the pandemic on the local community. The paper lists the managerial efforts to ensure safety of employees and patrons in unprecedented time of the pandemic using a humanistic and post-humanistic approach in the management of a public institution.

COVID-19 pandemic has been a real challenge and severe test of International Relations. It has been also a chance to gain or lose points in inter-power rivalry in Africa, which is full of contradictions. On the one hand, rich in human and natural resources, including energy ones. On the other hand, full of poverty, poor infrastructure (including health infrastructure), internal conflicts and political and economic instability what have a bad influence on the world economy and security. China, which nowadays is perceived as one of the most aggressive competitors in Africa, seems to conduct highly consistent policy towards this continent without any break, even in time of COVID-19 pandemic. This paper is an attempt to analyse Chinese activities in Africa at that time in context of global competition in this area and to evaluate how much they can influence China’s position there. Thus, after a brief historical background, it presents the most significant formal events and declarations between both partners, along with Chinese “mask and vaccine diplomacy” towards Africa from early 2020 until the beginning of 2023. The elements like soft power actions were especially under consideration in this analysis as these ones that are the most effective in the contemporary global policy, or at least equally fruitful as hard power.

During the first, the second and the third wave of coronavirus infections in Poland, the authors conducted empirical online research inspired by the theoretical potential of everyday life sociology and the sociology of disaster. One of the interesting problems which came to the surface when the project was carried out, was the issue of changes in human-animal relations, in the behaviour of animals during lockdown and in people's own behaviour towards animals. Interpretations of the research results presented in this paper concern two spheres: the home sphere - with the animals which live in it - and the urban sphere -including the free-living animals (also homeless and abandoned ones). We believe that the results of this research contribute to the broadening of our knowledge on the matter of human-animal familiarness as well as on urban ecosystems and the possibilities of their cultural-environmental exploration.

The paper addresses key challenges in passenger transport caused by COVID-19. The aim of the publication is to show the consequences of the pandemic for the evolution of passenger transport and the development directions of the sector, as well as the change in mobile behaviour. Moreover, the paper analyses passenger traffic by air, rail and public transport. The data was compared with the volume and structure of traffic before the pandemic. Regardless of how the scenarios related to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic will play out, there is no doubt that mobility trends have changed significantly. The pandemic has impacted mobile behaviour primarily through the development of hybrid working, home office, e-commerce or e-entertainment. Indeed, all modes of transport have been affected by the changes. Fast-growing new travel trends like shared mobility have been curtailed due to the fear of coronavirus infection. The passenger transport sector faces many challenges as a result of the epidemic situation, especially as the pandemic has seen a return to private car travel, which conflicts with the tenets of sustainable development, including sustainable mobility.

The purpose of the article is to systematize the knowledge on sales strategy and answer the question of whether current socio-economic conditions in the form of progressive digitalization and evolution of the sales function induce to update the definition of sales strategy. Furthermore, the study aims to verify whether the COVID-19 pandemic forces companies to reformulate their sales strategy. A non-systematic literature review supplemented by qualitative research was used as the research method. The first part of the paper presents the theoretical backgrounds of the analysis based on the literature review. The second part presents the results of the own research, enriched by the data from existing studies. Then, the results of the conducted discussion are presented. The final part of the paper contains a summary and the author's definition of sales management, focusing on sales strategy and a potential direction for future research. According to the analysis, the greatest challenge in implementing the assumed sales strategy is currently the COVID-19 pandemic, which significantly affects consumer behavior and limits market activities. However, with widespread access to advanced technologies and a flexible approach to strategy, most of the surveyed companies can meet their financial targets despite the economic crisis caused by the pandemic. When defining a sales strategy, it is necessary to consider the aspect of progressing digitalization and the evolution of the sales function, closely integrated with the marketing function.

The purpose of this article is to identify the key issues arising in relation to the existence of de facto (common law, nai’en) marriages in Japan. This paper will first show the broader context of the impact of the pandemic on legal-family relations in Japan. The discussion will then focus on the issue of de facto marriages, i.e. the genesis and increasing role of de facto marriages in Japan will be presented. Indeed, there have been increasing symptoms of the inclusion of informal relationships close to the marriage relationship in a legal context. The examples presented in this article provide a starting point for an analysis of the demands that have emerged in Japanese public space in relation to the specific needs of the COVID-19 pandemic era, i.e. the change of the unified spousal name system, as well as the issue of access to the partner’s medical information, and legal regulation related to parental authority.

The following paper addresses online learning in the Covid-19 pandemic and focuses on foreign language learning in the context of foreign language courses in higher education. The aim of the study is to investigate e-courses which the pandemic caused to become a substitute for face-to-face courses. Interviews were conducted with students from the University of Gdańsk and the Academy of Music in Gdańsk to find out their opinions. The research findings showed that organisation-related aspects, such as time saved, convenience or the ability to work professionally and study at the same time, were recognised as positives of online learning, while the actual educational goals, such as effectiveness, motivation and group collaboration, were seen rather as negatives of the situation. The work of teachers and their commitment were viewed positively. We did not recognise any major differences between online teaching and face-to-face interaction in this respect.

Global crisis events like the coronavirus pandemic can have an effect on the media and the habits of their audience. The need to find information about the virus and imposed restrictions, as well as the intensity of the COVID-19 coverage and the need to verify the truthfulness of news, make people use many different sources of information. People use media in different ways depending on where they live and the type of political regime and model of media system in their country. This paper aims to analyze whether the model of media system affected people’s selection of sources of information on the virus in Poland, Italy, France, Czech Republic, Sweden and the United Kingdom, and if the pandemic could have changed the media consumption. Based on an online survey conducted with 9541 respondents from six countries, and reports on media use in Poland in 2019 and 2020, we argue that the model of media system did not determine the changes we observed in media use. The nature of the pandemic was more important in this respect, and, as our research shows, led to an increase in media use in the studied countries – especially websites and social media. The case of Poland also showed that the use of public service increased, which can be interpreted as the need for the public to learn about the government’s opinions and restrictions, and to verify news found online. The increase in online media and public service use are the most noticeable changes in media consumption in Poland during the pandemic compared to 2019. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The 2020/21 academic year proved to be unprecedented in many ways for students and lecturers alike. The need to move from traditional education to a virtual classroom during the Covid-19 pandemic became a stimulus to seek new ways to work and expand knowledge. The aim of this paper is to present the outcome of project work completed by university students of a teaching specialization, which included ways of teaching and ICT tools suitable for working with learners with Special Educational Needs (SEN) in a traditional classroom and in a digital environment. With the increase in remote learning, the challenge of meeting the needs of learners with SEN is considerable. Therefore, inclusive classrooms should be designed with remote learning in mind, so that the teachers are ready to substitute or enrich traditional resources with educational technologies. With the right solutions, teachers can innovate and redefine their classrooms, remodelling them into a mix of face-to face and online delivery. However, different categories of SEN require different solutions. The analysis of the projects confirms that when students are involved in problem-solving and focusing on solutions, they learn more about how to contribute to effective learning in a meaningful way.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic forced the closure of schools in Poland. It was a challenge, especially for vocational education. Distance learning reduced the time devoted by some students to learning, and thus probably also the amount of their knowledge and skills. The authors indicate the key factors of how the transition to distance learning influenced the time devoted by students to education. This paper investigates to what extent the education system managed to adapt to the pandemic conditions and which actions are of special importance for the future. The analysis is based on the results of a survey of vocational school students in Poland who studied in the last grades during the pandemic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced entrepreneurs to make more intensive use of various types of digitization tools. One of the sectors most affected by COVID-19 has been the tourism sector. The aim of the paper is to indicate whether and how the acceleration of digitization processes, caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, was conducive to the use of digitization tools in enterprises in the tourism sector and how it influenced their functioning. The text presents the results of qualitative research carried out at the turn of December 2021 and January 2022, in the form of four Focus Group Interviews conducted with 22 representatives of various branches of the tourism sector. The research has identified a number of positive and negative consequences of using digital solutions in tourism enterprises in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. The positive effects include, for example, market expansion, maintaining contact with customers, acquiring new competences by employees, or saving resources. The negative consequences in turn include, among other things, high uncertainty generating costs, staff shortages, lowering the price of services and the negative impact of remote work on mental health of employees.

The state of the environment is getting worse worsening, despite the efforts of international community and individual states aimed at its improvement and achieving environmental sustainability. Moreover, the current crises – the COVID-19 pandemic and the armed conflict in Ukraine – have many negative effects on these efforts. The main aim of this paper is to analyse the most significant impacts of these crises on achieving environmental sustainability. We assume that they have strongly negatively affected the progress towards this goal, which we see as very dangerous given the urgency of the environmental crisis and the severity of its consequences. The paper is divided into three parts. In the first part, we outline the importance of environmental sustainability, focusing on the profiling of environmental pillar of sustainable development. The second part focuses on the analysis and mapping of the most significant environmental impacts of the COVID-19 crisis and the armed conflict in Ukraine on the very achievement of environmental sustainability. In this part, we demonstrate that both crises have strongly negatively influenced it and set the global community back in these efforts. In the third part, the findings as well as several possible future strategies are discussed.

The subject of the article is consumer ethnocentrism. This phenomenon has been generally characterised in the article from the theoretical point of view, in which it has been explained what it consists of and what its factors of universal character are, as well as those relating to consumer attitudes in Poland. In this perspective, the results of an empirical study on the level of consumer ethnocentrism during the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic are discussed. The findings indicate that the coronavirus pandemic is a minor trigger for increased ethnocentric attitudes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is aimed to describe the association between tourism and transport, seen in the perspective of the COVID-19 pandemic. The dual role of transport and tourism in the pandemic crisis is very special: it spreads the virus around the world and at the same time is mostly impacted by the pandemic negative consequences. The research was based mainly on the critical review and analysis of the secondary data (SDA method), such available resources as literature, statistic data and reports, actions taken by governments, international institutions and law regulations (published in 2020-2021). This approach allowed deep insight and overview of the most important issues of transport that have influenced tourism in the pandemic crisis. The final result of the study showed that for destinations highly dependent upon tourism-related revenue, the lockdown and transport suspension became a great concern and resulted in economy crisis. We acknowledge that due to the objective limitations, this paper cannot provide a comprehensive insight in tour- ism, transport and crisis issues. However, as this topic is a rarely discussed theme in academic texts, we hope that this paper could be found useful as it explores approaches to tourism from this new perspective. The paper ends with some reflections on sustainable development of the transport sector in the post-pandemic time, when tourism is expected to recover.
