“Being with” or Salesian Assistance in the Digital Age
Vodičar, Janez (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
Św. Jan Bosko najpełniej przedstawił swoją metodę wychowawczą w Liście z Rzymu z 1884 r., w którym jako podstawę pedagogiki salezjańskiej przyjął pełną miłości obecność wychowawcy. W długoletniej i różnorodnej praktyce pedagogicznej salezjanów tak zwana asystencja wychowawcza stanowi wyróżnik na tle innych metod nauczania i wychowania. We współczesnym społeczeństwie nacechowanym silnym poczuciem indywidualizmu stała asystencja wychowawcza może być raczej rozumiana jako chęć kontroli. Tak duży nacisk kładziony obecnie na wolność sumienia sprawia, że szczególnie trudno jest znaleźć dzisiaj taki rodzaj obecności wychowawcy, który będzie skutkował dzieleniem się i przekazywaniem wartości chrześcijańskich. Niniejszy artykuł zwraca uwagę na trudności wynikające z takiego właśnie rozumienia obecności wychowawcy dla całej dziedziny edukacji. To właśnie jednak w dobie cyfryzacji, kiedy to młodzi ludzie stają się coraz bardziej zależni od urządzeń elektronicznych i kiedy coraz trudniej przychodzi im nawiązywanie prawdziwych relacji z innymi, ta pełna miłości obecność, o której pisze Ksiądz Bosko, staje się tym bardziej konieczna. W oparciu o konkretny przykład salezjańskiej instytucji edukacyjnej zostanie ukazane, że taka metodyka kształcenia i wychowania nie stanowi jedynie jednej z możliwych opcji, ale może być skutecznie wykorzystana w kształtowaniu cech chrześcijańskich w pracy z młodymi ludźmi, nawet w epoce cyfrowej.
The Power of SweetNess? The Infantilisation Process of Japanese Youth. Kawaii and Otaku Subculture in the Perspective of Visual Anthropology
Sokołowski, Marek (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
This paper presents the original Japanese otaku youth subculture, initially associated with young boys, and the kawaii (cute/sweet) culture, whose close relationship with young girls has been underlined in social science studies. The contemporary kawaii culture has been present in Japanese aesthetics and popular culture for many years, supported by the government program “Cool Japan”. Both psychologists and sociologists observe that the adorable cuteness of the kawaii culture, encountered in commercials, animated films, comics, toys, street fashion, popular music and even a peculiar manner of speaking, causes and perpetuates infantilisation of the Japanese youth. There is a new generation who are afraid of entering adulthood. The ubiquitous presence of the kawaii culture in contemporary Japanese society has been interpreted using the methods of visual anthropology, defined by some scholars as visual ethnography.
Suspended Parenting in the Case of Child Resocialization in a Youth Educational Centre
Roguska, Agnieszka (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
The article defines the role and goals of suspended parenting in the case of juveniles’ stay in a youth educational facility during their social rehabilitation. The publication is based on the author’s five-year experience of work as an addiction psychotherapist. Over those years, the author conducted many hours of consultations with more than 125 charges and their parents in the course of therapeutic sessions. The analysis, apart from one-to-one consultations, also embraced personal files of charges. Juveniles may stay in such facilities for several weeks, but more often for months or even for several, e.g., 3-4 years. The present article discusses the tasks facing families of children staying in such facilities as well as introduces and defines such concepts as: suspended parenting, social rehabilitation, readaptation, attachment in children. The article also contains infographics on the reasons for referring minors to Youth Educational Centres (MOW) and the possibilities of supporting both the child and the parents/guardians by such a centre. In addition, it provides suggestions regarding the juvenile rehabilitation system as well as guidelines for practitioners.
Aiding and Abetting in Suicide Among Children and Adolescents
Majchrzak, Katarzyna (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
An increasing number of children and young people are committing suicide. Very often this occurs as a result of persuasion or with the provision of aid by peers. The purpose of this article is to introduce and explain the most important issues related to the offence under Article 151 of the Criminal Code. The perpetrator of the criminal act in question leads another person to take his or her own life. At the same time, it is not necessary for death to occur. The mere taking of actions directly aimed at suicide is sufficient. Persuasion involves inducing another person to take his or her own life. The persuasion should be explicit in oral or written form. Providing assistance, on the other hand, may consist of providing a measure, giving advice or guidance.

Christian Understanding of Patriotism in Selected Child and Youth Theatre Plays
Lach, Mariusz (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
Patriotic upbringing in the spirit of Christian faith is an important factor influencing the development of children and teenagers. It emphasizes the importance of tradition, which holds space for historical figures who become role models. In this process, theatre activities prepared by youngsters and addressed to their peers play a major role. Among numerous stage plays of questionable quality, appears a growing number of groups who approach this task with an increasing level of maturity, especially in recent years. They operate within biotheatre and create biogramas (often while being unaware of it). The historical figures mentioned in this article and brought to life by a few particular theatre groups exemplify the direction theatre initiatives for young audiences are heading towards.
Kayak Sport Club Olsztyn as a Place to Develop Physical Fitness, Passion and Interests in Children and Teenagers
Nosek-Kozłowska, Katarzyna (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
The aim of the article is to showcase canoeing as one of the forms of spending free time by children and youth, allowing them to develop their interests, passions, and physical fitness. Research on the role played by the KSC Olsztyn Sports Club in shaping the passions of children and youth was carried out by opting for the case study method and the semi-directed interview technique, focused on both the problem and observation. The research on the issues raised indicated that canoeing is a sport that is an excellent form of socialization for young people. Furthermore, educational values connected with the said type of sport are invaluable. It is a discipline that increases the physical fitness of young people, shapes their character, and has a positive impact on their psyche. Canoeing-oriented training is also an opportunity to establish valuable interpersonal relationships.
The War in Ukraine: Challenges for the Polish Education System
Kowalski, Wawrzyniec Roch (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
The article takes a closer look at the most relevant issues related to the sudden influx of refugees from Ukraine fleeing from the war to Poland. A significant part of them, according to Polish law, is of an age that is subject to compulsory education or schooling. In view of this, in a short period of time, almost 200 thousand pupils from Ukraine were placed in the units of the Polish education system. The purpose of this article is to present the scale of the problem – statistical data on pupils who are refugees, citizens of Ukraine, the measures taken by the Government of the Republic of Poland and the Ministry of Education and Science that were necessary to meet the considerable challenges, primarily the legal regulations and financial resources allocated from the state budget to provide these measures. According to the reported data, almost 198.3 thousand children and pupils who have arrived from Ukraine since 24 February 2022 (currently more than 182 thousand) are listed in the units of the Polish education system (in pre-school education, primary and secondary schools). Children and pupils – refugees from Ukraine can be found in all 16 provinces, all across Poland, although almost 40% are concentrated in provincial cities, with the highest number in Warsaw – 17 thousand and about 8 thousand in Wrocław and Kraków each. Faced with this situation, a number of ad hoc systemic changes have been introduced and financial resources of around PLN 3 billion have been allocated from the state budget. The war in Ukraine and the exodus caused by it has become a considerable challenge for the Polish education system. Poland, despite the lack of external financial assistance (including from the European Union), opened the doors of its borders, homes and schools from the first days of this military conflict, providing the necessary support to refugees and introducing the necessary systemic changes to enable the absorption of such a large number of children and young people, in a short period of time, in the middle of the school year.
The Church’s Responsibility for Sports for Children and Youth in the Light of the Teachings of Pope Francis
Dziubiński, Zbigniew (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
The article aims at presenting the teaching of Pope Francis on sport and on the need for active participation of the Church in this area. Based on an analysis of Pope’s document titled Giving the Best of Yourself. A Document on the Christian Perspective on Sport and the Human Person, but also on his other messages and statements, the article encapsulates Francis’ position on the responsibility of the Church for the sport community of children and youth. The conducted analyzes show that Pope Francis affirms the Church’s responsibility for sport, which is a global phenomenon endowed with numerous values and which can thus be used for the full and harmonious development of young people, in terms of both their physical fitness and health, as well as their sociocultural, ethical and spiritual condition. Through its pastoral leaders, the Church participates in all dimensions and stages of sports development building its humanistic and personalistic facet as well as in its social practice.
Salesian Schools as Inspiration for Modern Education. Review of: Funkcje społeczne szkół salezjańskich Okręgu Szkolnym Wileńskim okresie Drugiej Rzeczypospolitej by Łukasz Kalisz
Dąbrowska, Joanna E. (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
Vision of Church Higher Studies Based on Pope’s Francis’ “Veritatis gaudium”
Chrobak, Stanisław; Urbančok, Milan (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2023)
Universities are constantly undergoing process of intensive transformations. The titular document of Pope Francis shows the current panorama of new challenges regarding the identity and activity of universities. Guided by the teaching of the Second Vatican Council and the experience of the Church gained in recent decades, the Pope points to the “criteria for renewal and revival of the contribution of ecclesiastical studies to Church of missionary outreach”. Reviving ecclesiastical studies, the Pope points to the vital need to give new impetus to scientific research conducted at universities and ecclesiastical faculties. Christian inspiration makes it possible to take into account the moral, spiritual and religious dimensions in research, and to evaluate the achievements of science and technology from the point of view of the integral good of the human person. The point is therefore that Catholic ideals, attitudes and principles should permeate and provide the substance for the various forms of academic activity, according to their nature and inherent autonomy.
