This article analyzes the Polish police narrative on Roma during
the interwar time, unveiling attitudes and potential practices. According
to the police journals and handbooks, Roma were mobile
and disposed to theft and deceit. Their traditional crafts were
merely a smoke screen for illicit activities. As countermeasures,
searches of caravans, meticulous checks of identity documents,
indiscriminate fingerprinting of Roma suspects, among several
measures, were recommended. This narrative constituted part
of a larger police professional discourse and is likely to be an
indicator of practices on Roma. Polish police followed the contemporary
European expertise on Roma produced by the fields
of criminalistics and criminology. As there were no discriminatory
laws targeting Roma in Poland, it appears that police used legislation
against begging and vagrancy, among other tactics.

This study offers the first analysis of anti-Roma propaganda in the District of Galicia (Distrikt Galizien, the DG), a part of the GeneralGovernment (Das Generalgouvernement, the GG), by studying thedailies and several periodicals published in the District. It constitutes the first step in studying anti-Roma propaganda in the GG. While the wartime anti-Roma propaganda employed the pre-war images of Roma, those were manipulated, distorted and radicalized in accordance to the needs of the Nazi regime in the DG. The radicalization in the press paralleled introduction of regulations with anti-Roma edge and scaling up of Roma persecution in the GG. By 1943, the propaganda pieces alluded to solving “the Gypsy question” in the way that “the Jewish question” had been solved

The article discusses visions of future warfare articulated in recent Russian military publications. There seems to be agreement among Russian scholars that future war will be triggered by Western attempts to promote Western political and economic interests while holding back Russia's resurgence as a global power. The future war with the West is viewed as inevitable in one form or another, whether it is subversion and local wars or large-scale conventional war. While the danger of conventional war has declined, according to several scholars, the West is understood to have a wide range of non-kinetic means at its disposal that threaten Russia. In order to withstand future dangers, Russia has to be able to meet a large number of kinetic and non-kinetic threats at home and abroad.
