Online Violence Against Women: The Limits & Possibilities of Law
Online forms of violence against women are frequently perceived as ānot realā due to the fact that abuse happens in the online sphere, including social media. This dichotomy between āofflineā and āonlineā is not only incorrect when it comes to combatting online violence against women, but it also fails to take into account the fact that boundaries between āonlineā and āofflineā aspects of everyday life are increasingly disappearing in the context of modern societies

A Doctor Facing Turbulent Times: Antoni Tomasz Jurasz, Citizen of the World
The eponymous of the Jurasz procedure is Antoni Tomasz Jurasz (1882ā1961). The procedure is a standard approach to treating mature pancreatic pseudocysts that are in contact with the stomach, although recent advances in instrumentation have empowered surgeons to perform pseudocystogastrostomy laparoscopically for this problem. Dr. Jurasz was born in Germany but felt himself as Polish as his ancestors. He graduated from Heidelberg with a degree in medicine. Over the following years, he developed a German surgery school, especially helping with the achievements of Erich Lexer and Erwin Payr. During the period between World Wars I and II, Jurasz chaired and led the Surgery Clinic of Poznan University in Poland; and he gave lectures and performed public operations abroad. These activities, together with articles published in German-, French-, and English-language medical journals, made him a world-renowned figure in the field of abdominal and thyroid surgery. During World War II, he revealed exceptional traits, taking part in the September Campaign in Poland as a surgeon. He then organized the Polish School of Medicine and the Paderewski Hospital in Edinburgh. Despite his outstanding mind, generosity, and merits, A. T. Jurasz became persona non grata in Communist Poland, which ultimately persuaded him to emigrate to the United States
