Many scientists wondered: whether Poland can become a welfare state, despite the choice of a market economy. At work I put the hypothesis that Poland has not created the idea of the welfare state. It is worth mentioning the main features of the welfare state. These are: cost - free, universality and public character. Implementation of these features, as well as specific principles such as social justice, protection of labor, health care model, model of education show whether the state is realizing the ideas of welfare state, or not. The study compares Polish achievements and Finnish ones - country which, despite difficult historical experience, consistently implementing the ideas of welfare state. Also an important aspect is social identity and social acceptance of changes that take place, depending on the model of the economy. Polish experience show that the welfare state was not a real idea, but rather a myth, in which has been believed. Years of transition pointed out that attempt to create a welfare state in the current situation is hardly ever real.
Artykuł prezentuje wyniki badań zrealizowanych w okresie pandemii COVID-19 w 2021 roku wśród studentów Uniwersytetu w Białymstoku. Celem badania było określenie znaczenia indywidualnego kapitału społecznego dla dobrostanu emocjonalnego studentów. Dobrostan emocjonalny został zdefiniowany jako globalna ocena jakości życia jednostki. Indywidualny kapitał społeczny to potencjalne zasoby sieci osobistych i społecznych jednostki, z których „korzysta” ona w różnych sytuacjach życiowych. Badanie wykazało zależność pomiędzy indywidualnym kapitałem społecznym studentów, a ich dobrostanem emocjonalnym.
