“…Changeable weather, as well as difficulties occurring in finding a well-paid job which might assure a relatively high level of life, turned out to be among other important challenges (Chutnik & Kuźmińska-Haberla, 2014). In addition, as indicated by the results of the study of the students from Ukraine, before coming to Poland or at its early stage, they declared concerns about the language barrier, separation from family and friends, contact with stereotypes about themselves and difficulties with living in Poland (Rębisz & Grygiel, 2018).…”

This study examines social distance as a basic component of students' attitudes towards foreigners. The methodological approach in this research is designed to provide answers to the question: Does social distance play any role in the context of international tourism? The Bogardus Social Distance Scale was applied. A total number of 162 questionnaires were correctly completed by Polish and Ukrainian students (quota by nationality, age, gender and level of education). The survey was conducted in 2018. The research appears to show a statistically significant relationship between the respondents' declared attitude towards the Muslims and the Gypsies and the willingness to visit the country where such people reside. The findings have shown that there was no statistical relationship between the respondents' attitudes presented towards otherness and the fact that the respondent might know somebody who is a representative of the researched nationalities. The paper contains recommendations for the development of international tourism, especially destination marketing organizations (DMOs). It is recommended to use the social distance measure to set priority directions for inbound tourism when developing tourism marketing strategies, along with taking into account cultural diversity in the individual regions of Poland.

Artykuł wskazuje, w jaki sposób można uzupełnić lukę polegającą na braku badań dotyczących postaw wykładowców akademickich (nie-lektorów), rodzimych użytkowników języka polskiego, wobec błędów popełnianych przez studentów, dla których polszczyzna nie jest językiem ojczystym. Tłem teoretycznym są: (1) badania prowadzone w literaturze anglojęzycznej w obrębie paradygmatu English as a lingua franca – w szczególności w odniesieniu do szkolnictwa wyższego i jego umiędzynarodowienia – które problematyzują zasadność uznania schematów językowych stosowanych przez rodzimych użytkowników jako jedynego, bądź najważniejszego kryterium kompetencji językowej; (2) półperyferyjność systemu szkolnictwa wyższego w Polsce. Akademicy z Polski, jako autorzy tekstów naukowych, mogą stać się beneficjentami podejść, które odchodzą od ortodoksji w kwestii języka angielskiego w przypadku publikacji w międzynarodowych (zazwyczaj anglosaskich) czasopismach. Praca w systemie półperyferyjnym, przyciągającym coraz więcej studentów z zagranicy (głównie z Ukrainy), stawia ich jednak równocześnie w drugiej roli: trybunału poprawności językowej zgodnej ze standardami akademickiej polszczyzny. Artykuł rozważa możliwe scenariusze negocjowania tych dwóch tożsamości. The article shows how to fill the gap consisting in the lack of research on the attitudes of academic lecturers (other than language instructors), native speakers of the Polish language, towards mistakes made by students for whom Polish is not their mother tongue. The theoretical background is: (1) research conducted in English-language literature within the paradigm of “English as a lingua franca” – in particular with regard to higher education and its internationalization – which problematize the legitimacy of recognizing language patterns used by native speakers as the only or the most important criterion of linguistic competence; (2) the semi-peripheral nature of the higher education system in Poland. Polish academics, as authors of scientific texts, can become beneficiaries of approaches that deviate from orthodoxy regarding the English language in the case of publications in international (usually Anglo-Saxon) journals. Working in a semi-peripheral system, attracting more and more students from abroad (mainly from Ukraine), however, puts them in a different role: an oracle of linguistic correctness in accordance with the standards of academic Polish. The article considers possible scenarios for negotiating these two identities.
