The COVID-19 pandemic has dominated media and scholarly literature since 2020. The impact(s) of crisis management on democracy, legitimacy, human rights, minorities, marginalized groups, and persons ...belonging to them are mentioned but seldom the main focus. From the perspective of human rights, protection of minorities, and the principle of non-discrimination in multilevel systems in Europe, the paper discusses certain conceptual, terminological, and methodological problems in studying such complex dynamic phenomena and argues that qualitative approaches might be the most suitable for studying the perceptions of persons belonging to diverse minorities on democracy and the legitimacy of crisis management and governance.

Spletna besedila postajajo vse bolj relevanten vir informacij, korpuse tovrstnih besedil pa potrebujemo pri korpusnojezikoslovnih raziskavah in razvoju jezikovnih tehnologij za sodobno slovenščino. ...Čeprav so spletna besedila neposredno dostopna in je njihov zajem preprostejši od tiskanih, je izdelava takšnih korpusov še vedno zapletena, draga in zamudna. Ključno je, da poskrbimo, da se podobni podatki ne zbirajo večkrat, zato je nujno omogočiti njihovo čim večjo dostopnost čim širši raziskovalni skupnosti in zainteresirani javnosti. Tehničnih in prostorskih ovir za to sicer ni, vendar pri gradnji korpusa naletimo na številne omejitve v okviru zaščite avtorskih pravic, varstva osebnih podatkov in pogojev uporabe ponudnikov spletnih storitev. V prispevku predstavljamo pravno in dejansko stanje na teh področjih, opravimo pregled sorodnih tujih in domačih praks ter na primeru korpusa spletne slovenščine Janes predlagamo vrsto ukrepov, ki do največje možne mere omogočajo prosto in odprto razširjanje korpusov spletne slovenščine.
Kristin A. Goss examines how women's civic place has changed over the span of more than 120 years, how public policy has driven these changes, and why these changes matter for women and American ...democracy. As measured by women's groups' appearances before the U.S. Congress, women's collective political engagement continued to grow between 1920 and 1960 when many conventional accounts claim it declined and declined after 1980, when it might have been expected to grow. Goss asks what women have gained, and perhaps lost, through expanded incorporation, as well as whether single-sex organizations continue to matter in 21st-century America.
