Ethical Host, Prudent Host. Can You Steal from a Thief?

Two parallel problems come under close scrutiny in my paper. First of them concerns the question whether victims of a (politically or economically) stronger thief are ethically entitled to steal their property in revenge? I argue that this kind of theft could be seen as a hidden form of protection because the symbolic relation between the first aggressor and his victim is extremely unequal. An ordinary man usually has no public means to oppose corporation or political institution. He has then to decide whether he chooses ethical perfection, which would stop him from doing anything; or he is ready, by himself, to inflict punishment on an (institutionalized) thief. The other problem concerns the consequences of the acceptance of ‘the balancing strategy.’ The case of modern state shows how hidden fighting against a stronger thief brings about opposite results. On one hand, an unfair political institution is deprived of its rights. But, on the other hand, the insubordinate citizen, who plays the part of the only owner of the criterion of fairness, destroys the rules of common life.

The aim of the study is to analyse the stereotype of the Pole in the context of the Applied Cultural Studies perspective. Four basic areas of research can be discerned: other people’s variable associations concerning Poles; other people’s prejudices and generalizations that influence their attitude towards Poles; the results of Poles’ self-evaluation made on the basis of their current experience; the “social frameworks of memory” which shape the Poles’ ideas concerning their place in history. Since the purpose of this investigation is to reconstruct the mechanism of self-stereotyping, which involves scholars as much as the society they serve, contingent feelings about their situation are of secondary importance.

Aim: The article seeks to document an episode from the history of Prof. Halina Taborska’s many academic achievements, namely the Institute of European Culture at the Higher School of Humanities (later the Academy of Humanities) in Pułtusk, from the perspective of management sciences in the field of humanities. Methods: The article is an autoetnographic paper in which documents from the author’s private archives were analyzed. As the Deputy Director of the Institute, he was both the originator of and the witness to the events described. Results: We get a picture of a specific area of the educational practice in Mazovia in the years 1999–2006. We witness the efforts undertaken by Prof. Taborska, the Institute Director, to build a high-quality academic institution of an international reach where education was provided in the field of applied cultural studies by combining didactics with research, seminars, conferences and exhibition activities. Conclusions: An insight into a little-known fact from the history of the formation of non-state academic education outside the main educational centers in Poland after 1989. It proves it was possible to establish – in a completely new organizational environment and in the country – an institution having an international reach. It operated thanks to the efforts of a teaching personality which grew looking up to strong and intelligentsia role models.

Man in a World of Values. What is Applied Cultural Studies?

The aim of the study is to present the project of applied cultural studies – a result of work inspired by the output of representatives of the Poznań School of Methodology. Florian Znaniecki, Jerzy Topolski and Jerzy Kmita give a picture of culture the research of which is – to put it as briefly as possible – subjected to the principle of diversity in the models constituting it. Human motifs demand careful research precisely because they escape a simple comparison of arguments resulting from the knowledge of social facts. In accordance with this assumption the concept of applied cultural studies is accompanied by the conviction that heterogeneous systems of models of culture may become the object of development.
