The article presents the possibility of taking a look at the history of Polish rural sociology through the prism of social roles played by that discipline in different years. During the period between the two world wars emphasis was being put on rural sociology's 'ancillary' function defined by Wladyslaw Grabski as a postulate of studying the rural community in order to adjust to its needs. During the period of communist rule in Poland rural sociology played at first a 'servile' role, with sociologists conducting surveys to keep the rural population under surveillance and writing denunciatory reports that revealed the personal data of respondents at the time of intense Stalinist reprisals. Later on, the 'complaisant' function became dominant, with the communist party using rural sociology to justify its ideological decisions (glorification of state-owned farms, analyses by peasants-workers, etc.). A permanent feature of Polish rural sociology has for years been excessively strict adherence to the model of rural community that fails to take into account the existence of many elements and the occurrence of many changes, and also the absence of a thorough theoretical reflection. In effect rural sociology lacks a paradigm of its own and sticks to the assumptions of general sociology which is anti-rural, and this results in the tendency to neglect the role of the rural community and agriculture.

The passing two decades have been characterised by far-reaching independence of scientific considerations from the real situation. The three main processes (deruralisation, disagrarisation and depeasantation), recognised as the key aspects of the continuing development of the rural community and agriculture, have been developing at a very slow pace or have been halted altogether. In addition, the parameters defining these processes are far worse now than they were at the close of the communist era. Thus, it is possible to claim that the so-called agrarian segment is subject to regression rather than development and that transformation means nothing else in the case of this segment than desolation. The suggested phenomenon can be considered as typical for the cycle of Polish modernisation reforms which have been characterised since the 15th century by the stigma of a 'paradox': rural community and agriculture serve as a shock-absorber of consecutive transformations, bearing the costs and negative consequences of these transformations.

The article analyzes the main trends of the discussion on the problems of the rural community and agriculture in Poland held during the period of transformation. It uses for the purpose both scientific publications and press reports. The author of the article tries to argue the main points formulated during that discussion (e.g. rural community as a burden hampering reforms, as the society's debtor, peasant agriculture as an inefficient form of farming, etc.) by showing their groundless character and ideological and political motivations.
