Coexistence, co-responsibility and interdependence as categories important to social pedagogy directed towards building local communities

The article analyzes three categories: co-existence, co-responsibility and interdependence in the context of contemporary discussions about the role of social pedagogy in building local communities. New possible approaches arise while using these concepts for addressing contemporary conditions of the communities which result in new tasks of education. There are analysed also the consequences of the transformation from the previous rather static (territorial) view of local communities, that had the aim to root people in existing social structures, towards more dynamic, open and diverse spaces. They are not considered only as physical places anymore but as new local relations that are being developed, based on not stable, however increasingly popular forms of sharing experiences. For these changes the studied concepts match the new realities and in consequence demand pedagogical considerations

Italici an Itali?

During the Social War, certain linguistic choices must have had particular importance for the rebel Italian allies who fought against Rome. This article aims to demonstrate why the insurgents were likely to have rejected the term Italici and adopted the name Itali as their self-designation. A thorough analysis of the meanings and connotations of Greek and Latin terms used for the inhabitants of Italy clearly indicates that during the war the ethnonym Itali allowed the rebel Italians to radically dissociate themselves from the Romans and strengthen their own common identity

Destructive information influence and its implementation

With the dynamic development of political, economic and military processes, the guarantee of the national security in the information space is an essential element that significantly changes the appropriate functioning of any country. The current state of affairs in the context of the mainstreaming of the Ukrainian factor in the information warfare requires improvements of state institutions to counter Russian Federation destructive informational influence and its special information operations. Taking into account theoretical and applied research on the issue, it is worth mentioning that destructive information impact requires a systematic and integrated approach to problem solving. In the research authors investigate theoretical aspects of destructive informational influence and determine prior directions of the use in information warfare against Ukraine by Russian Federation. Scientific methods of modern epistemology are applied in accordance with the aim of the research. On the methodological basis of the study, the cognitive theory as a fundamental principle is used by experts in the field of information security. The results of analysis of theoretical research aspects of Ukrainian and foreign scholars determine priorities for the enemy to use destructive informational influence on Ukraine and the most vulnerable areas in information space of the country

Activity of Antimicrobial Peptides and Conventional Antibiotics against Superantigen Positive Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from the Patients with Neoplastic and Inflammatory Erythrodermia

Superantigens are proteins comprising a group of molecules produced by various microorganisms. They are involved in pathogenesis of several human diseases. The aim of the study was the comparison of susceptibility to antibiotics and antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) strains producing staphylococcal enterotoxins SEA, SEB, SEC, SED, and TSST-1 and nonproducing ones. In the group of the total 28 of the patients with erythrodermia the presence of SA was confirmed in 24 cases. The total of 14 strains of SA excreted enterotoxins SEA, SEC, SED, and TSST-1. We did not observe that strains producing mentioned superantigens were less susceptible to AMPs (aurein 1.2, citropin 1.1, lipopeptide, protegrin 1, tachyplesin 3, temporin A, and uperin 3.6). The opposite situation was observed in conventional antibiotics. SA strains excreting tested superantigens had higher MICs and MBCs than nonproducing ones. The interesting finding considering the high efficacy of AMPs, against all examined strains of SA, makes them attractive candidates for therapeutic implication
