<p>Artykuł poświęcony jest filozofii Mannfreda Sommera i jego fenomenologii praktyk zbierania. Podstawą koncepcji Sommera jest odróżnienie zbierania ekonomicznego i estetycznego. Zbieranie ekonomiczne ma charakter nierozróżniającej kumulacji. Zbieranie estetyczne jest różnicujące, nakierowane na indywidualne cechy przedmiotu. Przy bliższej analizie pierwsze okazuje się ułomną, niepełną odmianą drugiego. Zbieranie i kolekcjonowanie mają u swego źródła fakt, że człowiek to <em>homo videns</em> – istota, która znajduje najwyższą radość w oglądzie i która pragnie trwać w owym oglądzie na zawsze. Omówienie koncepcji Sommera kończy się zebraniem uwag wobec niej krytycznych.</p>
AbstractAn article is concerned with the theoretical conditions of transgression in pre-modern, modern and contemporary society. Author argues that in pre-modern worldview there were no conceptual conditions which made transgression possible. In modern and especially postmodern de-enchanted world a real transgression is a creative work which goes beyond the limitations of exclusive humanism. Among the discussed authors are: Ch. Taylor, D. Castaldo, M. Douglas
The analysis of the patterns of formal and informal participation of Polish migrants in nine selected countries shows the prevalence of informal modes of engagement over the formal ones. This is especially visible while analysing formal membership and volunteering in NGOs, which are typically used as indicators of a formal engagement. In both cases - non-immigrant NGOs and PIOs - their values are relatively low, and in each case do not exceed 6% of the researched population. On the other hand, the indicators of informal engagement are significantly higher. This applies especially to some of the dimensions of informal social activities like selfless help for neighbours and other people in close social environment, collecting for those in need and different forms of internet activity.
This paper examines the relations between immigrant organizations and the institutions of their state of origin as well as the influence of those relations on situation of such organizations. It focuses specifcally on the case of Poland over the period 1989-2015 in which signifcant changes with regards to diaspora policy were introduced. In other words, a shift from a model based on capacity building policies to a model focused on extracting obligations from the diaspora has taken place. These changes have had considerable impact on the role and capacity of Polish immigrant organizations as well as their relations with the Polish state.
Pomimo że organizacja jest zazwyczaj definiowana jako grupa ludzi działających na rzecz osiągania wspólnych celów w ramach określonej struktury, to funkcjonowanie organizacji nie jest wolne od napięć, sporów czy konfliktów. Niniejszy artykuł skupia się na konfliktowym obliczu /lub/ wymiarze zorganizowanych grup ludzkich w specyficznym kontekście – w warunkach migracyjnych. Zaprezentowane w nim zostaną wyniki prac badawczych przeprowadzonych przy zastosowaniu strategii studium przypadku wśród polskich organizacji imigranckich w Szwecji. Zrekonstruowana i wyjaśniona zostanie w nim specyfika napięć i sporów występujących w polonijnym polu organizacyjnym: zarówno w samych polskich organizacjach imigranckich, pomiędzy nimi, jak też pomiędzy nimi a ich otoczeniem społecznym i instytucjonalnym.
Although an organization is usually defined as a group of people working towards achieving common goals within a specific structure, the functioning of the organization is not free from tensions, disputes or conflicts. This article focuses on the conflict dimension of organized human groups in a specific context – in migratory conditions. It presents the results of research carried out using a case study strategy among Polish immigrant organizations in Sweden. It reconstructs and explains the specificity of tensions and disputes occurring in the Polish organizational field: both within the Polish immigrant organizations, between them, and between organizations and their social and institutional environment.
The report is an outcome of the project "Polish immigrant organizations" founded by the National Science Centre [grant number 2014/14/E/HS6/00731]. The proposed project was aimed at assessing and identifying factors contributing to the current status of Polish immigrant organizations in selected European countries (Germany, France, Great Britain, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain). The project envisioned two tracks of research: 1. Diagnostic research designed to assess the status of Polish immigrant organizations in selected European countries. 2. Explanatory research designed to identify factors affecting the status of Polish immigrant organizations in selected European countries.
