b) in the field of providing decent material and living conditions for ATO participants and their families: • improvement of quality and availability of pro- fessional legal assistance, in particular, special- ized government agencies, in solving problems related to free transfer of land plots or apart- ments to ATO participants and deceased ser- vicemen’s families as well as to the implemen- tation of a range of benefits in the process of personal housing construction; • implementation of effective mechanisms for housing initiatives of ATO participants through crediting housing construction or purchasing of affordable housing under state guarantees which are financially advantageous for this population category; • full financing of free housing programs for dead servicemen’ families and certain catego- ries of disabled people (for example, for those who have lost their limbs, eyesight, etc.), regis- tered in the apartment queue; • dissemination of effective mechanisms of share participation of the state and local authorities, non-governmental organizations, employers in housing construction for ATO veterans, first of all for the families of those who have perished or died after demobilization; • development of legitimate local initiatives for transfer of apartments in the newly build houses or cash compensation in the amount of a market value of affordable housing in a spe- cific locality to ATO participants instead of land plots; • financing hostels construction in regions for contract servicemen as well as ATO partici- pants and their families who will not be able to receive or build their own housing (private house, apartment) in the near future from the state and regional budgets; • payment of monetary compensation for unused privileges, for example, from sanatorium-resort treatment or free travel in intercity transport in case of their inexpediency for person; • implementation of mechanism for choosing a provider of guaranteed benefits and services by ATO participant or a family of deceased ser- viceman, volunteer, hired employee, including on the basis of monetization of such privileges, with allocation of the respective target compen- sation fund which, at the same time, will contrib- ute to the development of the market environ- ment in the implementation of social protection programs, competition for such a right among producers as well as improvement of quality of benefits and services provided within the bud- get segment of specified programs; c) in the field of improving quality of medical care and rehabilitation of ATO participants: • conduction of representative research on post- traumatic mental stress disorders among ATO ex-members, including on the basis of gener- alization of various involved agencies informa- tion;

• development of native innovative technolo- gies of prosthetics, mastering of such foreign samples under consultants guidance; • liquidation of prosthetics queue; systematiza- tion and intensification of measures for reha- bilitation of disabled people; • institutionalization of the mechanism of co- financing from the state, regional, local bud- gets of expenditures for rehabilitation centers creation (for example, on the basis of sanato- riums with appropriate medical equipment or psychoneurological hospitals); • improvement and implementation of the meth- ods for overcoming psychological problems of armed conflict participants (according to: objec- tive and subjective characteristics of health, emo- tional irritability, level of conformism to commu- nity; spectrum of aspects of returning a person to a peaceful life – legal, socio-economic and so- cio-cultural, moral and ethical) in the practice of psychological support units of Ukrainian Armed Forces and related civil services; • intensification and increase of the complex of psychological and rehabilitation measures provided to the militaries directly at the place of service, in particular, as part of measures to overcome alcoholism at combat positions; • implementation of mental examination pro- cedure on the base of military medical psychi- atric commissions for persons, who have been mobilized to the Armed Forces and sent to ATO zone, as well as for ex-members of this opera- tion, who have expressed a desire to join the law-enforcement and state bodies; • regional dissemination of practice of training seminars conducted by psychologists and psy- chotherapists on provision psychological assis- tance to ATO participants and their families; d) in the field of vocational adaptation and increase of productive potential of ATO participants: • involvement to service in the Armed Forces and the State Border Guard Service under the contract;

By the close of the twentieth century, however, historical complementarity in important geographic tracts on sovereignty, conditioned by new geopolitics of post-communism, gave way to diverging prognostications among academic geographers on the contemporary and future nature and salience of state sovereignty. keywords: agnew; doi; murphy; sovereignty; state; system; taylor; war; world cache: jgps-5077.pdf plain text: jgps-5077.txt item: #147 of 210 id: jgps-5078 author: Astramowicz-Leyk, Teresa title: The initiative of Southern Baltic Sea regional parliaments cooperation date: 2020-11-20 words: 7662 flesch: 40 summary: South- ern Baltic Sea Parliamentary Forum), Samorząd Pomorza.

In 2002, Chechen suicide bombings became a widespread tactic, mostly executed by Chechen women called “Black Widows” – leaving Putin to label Chechens as the most violent terrorist group in Russia’s history (Wilhelmsen, 2005). keywords: chechen; chechen women; chechnya; doi; fantasy; female; feminevil; gender; group; matusitz; sct; suicide; terrorism; theme; violence; war; widows; women cache: jgps-7418.pdf plain text: jgps-7418.txt item: #202 of 210 id: jgps-7419 author: Wojciechowska, Jolanta title: Rural tourism and agritourism in Poland – development processes and evolution of terminology date: 2022-12-23 words: 7342 flesch: 45 summary: The complicated history of Poland1 had an influence on different approaches to the definitions of terms defining tourism forms in rural areas, and it is suggested that the development of rural tourism had taken an alternative course, compared to other European countries.
