Automating partnership principle assessment. Using generative AI to analyze stakeholder participation in European operational program governance
The partnership principle represents a cornerstone of European Cohesion Policy, requiring meaningful involvement of diverse stakeholders in program design, implementation, and monitoring. This case study demonstrates how generative AI transformed traditional document analysis in evaluation practice, moving from labor-intensive manual coding to sophisticated automated extraction and categorization. Using Google’s Gemini API, we systematically analyzed monitoring committee protocols and membership compositions across several European operational programs in Poland. The AI-powered workflow automated stakeholder extraction, attendance tracking, and analysis of substantive contributions during committee deliberations, processing approximately 200 protocols that would have required months of manual analysis.Otwarty dostępMonografieMonograph Chapter - 2026-08-20
Między transparentnością a zagrożeniem - wpływ prawa zamówień publicznych na funkcjonowanie szpitali
Prawo zamówień publicznych w ochronie zdrowia funkcjonuje na styku dwóch porządków wartości, które nie zawsze pozostają ze sobą w harmonii: transparentności i konkurencyjności wydatkowania środków publicznych oraz bezpieczeństwa pacjenta i jakości udzielanych świadczeń zdrowotnych. Szpitale publiczne, jako zamawiający w rozumieniu ustawy Pzp, są zobowiązane do stosowania rygorystycznych procedur, których zasadniczym celem jest zapewnienie równego dostępu wykonawców do rynku oraz ochrona przed arbitralnością decyzji zakupowych. Jednocześnie są one podmiotami leczniczymi, na których ciąży konstytucyjny i ustawowy obowiązek zapewnienia świadczeń zdrowotnych odpowiadających aktualnej wiedzy medycznej oraz standardom bezpieczeństwa pacjenta. Napięcie pomiędzy tymi dwoma porządkami szczególnie wyraźnie ujawnia się przy sporządzaniu opisu przedmiotu zamówienia, który w praktyce decyduje o tym, jaki sprzęt, wyroby medyczne lub usługi trafią do codziennej praktyki klinicznej.Otwarty dostępMonografieMonograph Chapter - 2026-08
Decision-Making in Cultural Heritage Security Management under Armed Conflict: A Case Study of Karol Estreicher
This paper examines decision-making in cultural heritage security management through the case of Karol Estreicher Jr. (1906-1984), an art historian, university professor, and one of the leading figures involved in the protection and post-war restitution of Polish cultural heritage. The analysis focuses on his efforts to safeguard the Veit Stoss Altarpiece - one of the largest and most important late Gothic altarpieces in Europe - before, during, and after the Second World War. Using a retrospective case study approach, the analysis combines historical sources, a review of 177 press articles published between 1946 and 2021, contemporary legal regulations concerning the protection of cultural heritage during armed conflicts, and an interview with the current custodian of the Altarpiece. The findings show that many of the challenges resulted from the absence of formal protection plans, coordinated risk management, and institutional cooperation. The case also demonstrates how risks may be incorrectly identified and assessed under conditions of uncertainty. While the decision-makers primarily anticipated the threat of physical destruction resulting from bombing and military operations of the Nazi authorities, they underestimated the likelihood of cultural looting by the occupying forces. The study therefore highlights the importance of early planning, systematic risk assessment, scenario analysis, and stakeholder coordination in safeguarding cultural heritage before and during armed conflicts.Otwarty dostępMonografieMonograph Chapter (Conference proceedings) - 2026-07-16
Egocentric biases in moral judgments of character and behavior
Egocentrism plays a central role in moral cognition, as individuals interpret the social world from a default, self-centered perspective. This often leads people to view their moral evaluations as objective and justified, even when those judgments are influenced by self-interest or interpersonal preferences. In this chapter, I review research that identifies two key egocentric tendencies in moral judgment, which are evident in both children and adults. First, when interests are involved, individuals are more likely to evaluate unethical or unjust actions as morally acceptable. Second, people tend to perceive those they like as more moral than those they dislike, indicating that liking can bias moral evaluation. These patterns persist even when individuals attempt to reason impartially. Rather than being irrational errors, such tendencies may serve adaptive social functions by helping individuals maintain relationships, form alliances, and make strategic moral decisions. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for explaining everyday moral reasoning and behavior.Otwarty dostępMonografieMonograph Chapter
