Author(s): IOnel Vovciuc / Language(s): English Issue: 11/2019

Apart from the violence covered by the press by informative broadcasts at peak audiencehours, we found it was extremely important to debate this topic in the pre-universityenvironment, especially in high school classes, where students are easily trained in theeducation for life. A first argument to debate this topic is the one provided by televisionchannels, radio shows and articles written in newspapers by non-professionals. In order toprotect them from the aggressive media exposure to school-based conflicts, we thought toprovide pictures or movies with a strong social and emotional impact to raise awareness ofthe bad actions in the everyday life of students.A second argument is that we have tried to see the causes of class conflicts, to find solutionsin diagnosing the occurrence of conflicts between classes, then to put into practice methodsand techniques for solving conflicts in the form of a game, for the students to finally realizethat some conflicts can be quenched from the beginning by treating indifferently gestures thatcan be tolerated and accepted at the same time.

Author(s): Andreea Filip,Sinziana Elena Mititelu / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2015

Ethics, one of the main branches of philosophy, deals with researching moral issues, dealing, for example, with the issue of good and evil, situational behavior and even with what we are supposed to do in certain instances, because, as Aristotle claimed, ethics can be seen as the sum of traditions and human behaviors and how it regards the way in which we act and react according to the principles rooted deep down into ourselves.

Author(s): Krasimir Kabakchiev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 5/2020

According to most Bulgarian grammars and the majority of researchers studying the Bulgarian perfect, its indicative forms are built from aorist participles and not from imperfect ones.

The relevant specificities in the semantics of the perfect, the aorist and the imperfect are investigated, and a firm conclusion is made that the Bulgarian perfect must be regarded as formed from both aorist and imperfect participles.
