This paper regards the urban street as social space, where different symbolic interactions occur between individuals and groups of people. The established social and political order within this space happens to be disturbed by different forms of protest. An article attempts to compare the course of riots in former times to those at present. The comparison implies that the functional grandness of the urban street belongs to the past. This is mainly caused by new legal regulations restricting freedom of assembly and the new tele-electronic media space, and by a deepening division of the Polish society into different groups of interest, and its consequent inability to consolidate. An indirect cause also is the new order and mentality developed in democratic societies and by a consumeristic lifestyle.

This article discusses a fragment of an empirical study on the learning of adults participating in various forms of rebellion such as manifestations, demonstrations, urban activism and many others. Several interviewees from Spain pointed out the importance of specific places in their practices of rebellion and learning. These ‘significant places’ could be an important context of people’s lifelong learning. They mediate activities, build social relationships, produce norms, values and – what is crucial from the point of view of biographical research – construct the identities of rebels.

The paper presents relation and similarities between two existential authors: Kierkegaard and Shestov. The works of these two philosophers rises from the concern about the situation of a modern man. Kierkegaard in his famous conception of three types of existence gives a vivid picture of dangers which await for a human being. Shestov sees the danger for authenticity of the human being in higher and higher development of the idea of ratio in his days. The reason force human existence to be his only and one God. But for these two existential philosophers a man needs to be free – which means to be conscious and to choose with knowing consequences. Thus they call – paradoxically – sola fi de in order to oppose against those – in their opinion – demonical forces which make existence miserable.

Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale features a pattern of violent rebellion that only just fails to happen. Such moments of near-rebellion, best interpreted through the play’s master trope of the moving statue, constitute an exploration of the causes of political rebellion and how best to avert it. Thanks to the close integration of its romance aesthetics and political realism, The Winter’s Tale can be read as a “Mirror for Kings”.

The subject of my reflection is family assistantship - a new form of family support, implemented in Poland as part of grassroots initiatives of non-governmental organizations and social assistance organizational units [JOPS], in the period preceding the adoption of the Act on family support and foster care system (act) . The appointment of a new professional role, the family assistant, in the social assistance system, or more broadly - in the context of care and assistance - was a real challenge to the current practices supporting the family in Poland: tasks, well-established forms of support, as well as the expectations and interests of helpers' professional environments, administration, local authority and other groups. The purpose of the sociological analysis of the processes of conceptualizing and implementing family assistantship in the social assistance system is to justify the thesis that family assistantship in the years 1990–2011 can be seen as a normative innovation (adaptive strategy) in social assistance and social work, which was a consequence of the revolt against the appearance of goals of social assistance and social work, and a response to the expectation of effective action, directed from various sides to social assistance, including from the professional environment of social workers, more and more active in the educational sphere. Also social policy, since the 1990s interested in the issue of the effectiveness of social assistance and social activity, has become an “external” source of inspiration for the institutional change introduced, which was the work of the (social) family assistant and its organizational model. In the presented text I am looking for answers to two questions: 1) what are the characteristic features of family assistantship as normative innovation? 2) what was the social order destabilisation in the years 1990–2011, incurred by including family assistantship in routine practices in social assistance centres? In preparing this study, I used my own research, observation and professional experience, as well as research carried out by other authors. In addition to the main goal, this article also pursues a minor goal. It is an attempt to synthesize dispersed empirical material on the subject of family assistantship, as well as the results of research relating to the processes of implementing institutional change, in an important context of care and assistance that is underrated in sociological reflection.

Literature is a social fact and as such it can be one of the ways to interpret social reality. Therefore, the literature published after the year 2000, with reference to sociological studies on young generation, is found to be an interesting source of knowledge on behavior, attitudes and values presented by young Poles. The article as a contribution to the discussion on the role of literature as “the mirror” of social life is limited to young people as observers (the youngest generation of Polish writers) and as the observed (experiences and problems of young Poles at the beginning of the 21st century). Its introductory part deals with the problem of perception of social life from the angle of literature, and refers to the concept of the considered generation in sociological literature. Its main part presents the sketch for the portrait of fictional young Poles, their lifestyle and values based on the literary fiction. At the same time, this artistic image is compared to the existing sociological data. The use of the latter is subject to the problem key applied in the analysis of the selected novels.

Bronisław Kamiński is rather unknown as a poet in Poland. In France, however, he was calledthe “Polish Rimbaud.” This paper attempts to describe Kamiński’s surprising, poetic path and analyzehis poetic debut, published in Cracow in 1937. It aims at comparing its two versions, focusing onthe means Durocher uses to express his youthful rebellion à la Arthur Rimbaud.

The article combines the quality of analytical and documentary materials. It is based on the meaningful memories of the witness of the events of the civil war in 1918 – 1919 in the Uman district of the Kiev province. The view of the non-politicized witness and participant is of particular value. The correction of the proposed point of view is carried out with the help of comments, which use both published and unpublished sources.

In the extensive work of the Dubrovnik-born Benedictine Lodovico Tuberon de Crieva, „Commentaria de temporibus suis” describing the events in the Mediterranean in the years 1490–1522, there is a small passage about the events on the island of Hvar (ital. Lesina). The island was then, together with most of the Dalmatian coast, under the rule of the Venetian Republic. On Hvar in 1510, a popular uprising against the local nobles broke out, which lasted with varying intensity until 1514. The Venetian authorities then sent considerable armed forces, which, after defeating the rebels at sea and on land, suppressed the rebellion. It is surprising, however, that Tuberon suggests in the above-mentioned passage that the outbreak of the revolt could have been provoked by the Venetians themselves, who feared the nobility allegedly favoring the King of Hungary. He also mentions the leading role of a clergyman who was supposed to encourage the plebs to act and initiate a revolt. Taking the mentioned text of Tuberon as a starting point, the author analyzes the political and social situation on the island of Hvar as well as the background and course of the events in the years 1510–1514. The author's goal is to establish what the grounds for Tuberon's presumptions were and to what extent they are true.

This paper focuses mostly on the religious aspects of the Cossacks’ uprisings in the first half of 17th century (mainly the 1625, 1630, 1637 and 1638 uprisings), and discusses their impact on the origins, the course and following peace negotiations as well. The paper is based mostly on Cossack primary sources like manifestos, proclamations issued by the leaders, together with the directions which were to be followed during the peace talks, and the not Cossack sources as well. They prove how the religious aspects, namely the appeals to defend the persecuted orthodox confession, contributed to the character of the developments. Another question was, to what extent the religious engagement of the Cossacks uprisings at that time was caused by a sincere concern for the Orthodox Church situation, or perhaps there were other reasons, not having much in common with the faith. The analysis discusses also the Cossack delegates’ actions and policy on the Commonwealth Sejm in the years 1631–33, during which they firmly demanded restoration of the status the Orthodox Church had before 1596.

A donkey is an animal that can be found in linguistic, literary, and cultural-anthropological works. However, this work analyses the symbolism of the animals that appear in the Chakavian poetry by Zvane Črnja, Croatian poet, opinion journalist and cultural historian. It specifically focuses on the character of donkey (or tovar) in that poetry, as well as the poetic effect of the place that the motif or the subject of donkey occupies in Črnja’s poems. In his poetry, the donkey represents, at least toan extent, a signum or a symbol of the rebellion of those who are oppressed, invisible or marginalized due to their language, their culture or their social status. It is a symbol of all of those who perceive their marginalism as the cause for uprising or newly awakened self-awareness, and which, in part, fits into the pattern of the Mediterranean cultural codex, due to its humoristic aspect.

W tekście została podjęta problematyka uczenia się oraz konstruowania tożsamości feministycznej w warunkach uczestnictwa w protestach. Autor analizuje w nim pięć wywiadów narracyjnych z uczestniczkami różnego rodzaju demonstracji (m.in. Manify, Czarny Protest) i innych działań o charakterze feministycznym. Badane poruszają wątki, które można ująć w perspektywie uczenia się społeczno-kulturowego w obrębie wspólnot buntu i niezadowolenia społecznego. Okazuje się, że uczestnictwo w działaniach buntowniczych przyczynia się do wytwarzania, a być może intensyfikowania tożsamości feministycznej. Autor opisuje te mechanizmy i problematyzuje kwestię polityki tożsamości zgodnie z pytaniem Judith Butler: czy feminizm potrzebuje polityki tożsamości?

The issues of learning and feminist identity-building in terms of participating in protests are addressed in this text. The author analyzes five narrative interviews with female participants of various types of demonstrations (including “Manifas”, Black Protests) and other feminist mobilisations. The interviewees discuss topics that can be included in the perspective of socio-cultural learning within communities of rebellion and social dissatisfaction. It turns out that participation in rebel actions contributes to the production and perhaps intensification of feminist identity. The author describes these mechanisms and problematises the issue of identity politics according to the question of Judith Butler: Does feminism need identity politics?

When we want to exam the faith of Job we must first distinguish two parts in the Book of Job. The first one is called the Prologue (with the Epilogue) and the second one consists of the poetic part of the Dialogues. In the first section we can see Job as a very just and righteous man who fears the Lord and turns away from evil. After two tragic and painful tests (when our protagonist loses his property, children and his own health) Job remains faithful to God and humbly accepts his fate. He seems to be a trustful servant of God. However, the reading of the poetical section shows us Job as a rebel who cannot accept his dramatic conditions, who curses the day of his birth and conception, who argues with his friends and accuses God of treating Him as the source of his sorrows. He seems to be an unfaithful and trustless rebel. The image of Job according to the part of Dialogues is more realistic (from the psychological point of view) and nearer to all of us. When God reveals himself to Job and speaks to him, he returns to his humble attitude and once again agrees with the Divine Will. That is why we can call him a faithful and trustful servant who experienced the period of rebellion. Finally, he remains a good example of deep faith and confidence in God though he passed rebellious moments in his life.

Sposób funkcjonowania squatterów w przestrzeniach miejskich nie może zostać niezauważony. Podejmowane przez członków tej grupy społecznej działania niejednokrotnie wzbudzają sprzeciw reszty społeczeństwa, z drugiej zaś strony trudno nie dostrzec twórczego potencjału tej grupy. Zachowania, które mogą być uważane za przejaw niedostosowania, równie dobrze mogą świadczyć o pozytywnej adaptacji jednostek do niesprzyjających warunków środowiskowych. W artykule dokonano charakterystyki ruchu squatterskiego, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem podejmowanych przez squatterów działań o charakterze buntowniczym. Wyjaśniono czym jest bunt młodzieńczy oraz jakie mogą być jego przejawy. Opisano także koncepcję niedostosowania społecznego jako szczególnej formy odporności psychicznej. Zaprezentowano wyniki badań empirycznych przeprowadzonych wśród squatterów oraz w grupie kontrolnej. W obu zbiorach zbadano poziom odporności psychicznej oraz sposoby buntowania się. Następnie porównano wyniki uzyskane przez respondentów z grupy badawczej i kontrolnej. Przebadani squatterzy charakteryzowali się wyższym poziomem odporności psychicznej niż ich rówieśnicy, uzyskali również wyższe wyniki na skali buntu pozytywnego natomiast niższe na skali buntu negatywnego w porównaniu z badanymi z grupy kontrolnej. Zaobserwowano także istotną statystycznie korelację pomiędzy odpornością psychiczną a sposobami buntowania się squatterów. Wyniki badań wskazują na konieczność włączenia tej grupy w obszar pedagogiki społecznej.

Whenever squatters decide to act in urban spaces, their activities cannot stay unnoticed. Behavior that can be considered as a social maladjustment, may as well indicate a positive adaptation of individuals to unfavorable environmental conditions. In this article the characteristics of squatter’s movement have been presented with particular emphasis on rebellious actions taken by them. This paper explains the concept of youthful rebellion and describes its manifestations. It also present the concept of social maladjustment as a particular form of psychological resistance. This article presents the results of empirical research conducted among squatters and in the control group. In both groups the level of psychological resistance and ways to rebel were tested. Squatters were characterized by a higher level of ego – resilience than their peers. They also obtained higher scores on a scale of positive rebellion and lower scores on the scale of negative rebellion. There was also a statistically significant correlation between the level of psychological resistance of squatters and their ways to rebel. The results indicate the necessity of including a group of young squatterów in the area of social pedagogy.

Revolution can be judged as the most spectacular sign of social reforms. Revolution gives rise to common enthusiasm, gives hope, creates the vision of the future, which is often imaginated. For centuries man rebelled against anything, only the Greek mind changed it. A lot of sociologist consider that inherent century should be called the revolution. The widespread success of the revolution is dependent on social mobilization and notice that it can give a chance to change the formal social position.

In her novel, Juli Zeh paints the picture of a perfect world from which disease and suffering have been almost entirely eliminated and in which health becomes the overarching value. That would truly be a perfect world, wholly subordinated t the state and the dictates of health, were it not for the disobedient individuals breaking out of the system. One of such rebels and enemies of the state is the main character, Mia Holl. She becomes a symbol of freedom and independence, a personification of the right to illness, dirt and germs. In a sterile world an individual’s freedom and right of self-determination present a danger to the state’s apparatus – a totalitarian system in which nothing matters but the dictate of health.

The paper discusses the origins and course of the current crisis in Mali. The author outlines the reasons for the structural weakness of Mali, resulting from the shape of the borderline drawn at the time of decolonization, the confrontation between the Tuareg and the central government, the impact of the collapse of Gaddafi’s dictatorship in Libya at the onset of a new stage in the confrontation, the role of Islamist groups in northern Mali, and the course of French intervention there. The case of Mali as an almost classic ‘fallen state’ is treated separately.

W artykule omówiono genezę i przebieg bieżącego kryzysu politycznego w Mali. Autor nakreślił przyczyny strukturalnej słabości Mali wynikające z dokonanego w czasie dekolonizacji wytyczenia granic, przebieg konfrontacji między Tuaregami a rządem centralnym, wpływ upadku dyktatury Kadafiego w Libii na otwarcie nowej fazy konfrontacji, rolę ugrupowań islamistycznych na północy Mali oraz przebieg francuskiej interwencji w tym państwie. W sposób odrębny potraktowany został przypadek Mali jako klasycznego niemal „państwa upadłego”.

The book discusses the attitude of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth nobility to the Cossack problem in the second half of the 17th century. The chronological framework of the work is the period between the outbreak of the Khmelnytsky uprising up to the ratification of the Hadiach union by the sejm of the Commonwealth. The choice of this period made it possible to thoroughly analyze one of the key research subjects of the work, i.e. the evolution of views and attitudes among the nobility regarding the Cossack issue, and the factors affecting this process In the beginning of the book, I mostly concentrate on the determination of the nobility’s views concerning the motives for Cossacks’ armed revolt against the Commonwealth, which substantially affected the evaluation of the character of the uprising. Chapter two presents the main projects of solving the Cossack problem promoted by the contemporary Commonwealth authorities. Chapter three includes a discussion on the nobility’s attitude to the Cossack problem in the 1650–1654 period. Chapter four presents the circumstances which led to the Union of Hadiach, and opinions on that union prevalent among the nobility. It also discusses the main problems connected with the ratification of ghat agreement at the 1659 sejm.

The awakening of Miss Prim is a novel that tells the story of Prudencia Prim in the small town of San Ireneo de Arnois. In the novel, Prudencia is surprised by the way of life of the irenites, who seem to despise the modern world. The novel serves as a framework for ideas that go far beyond the plot. It is a reflection on the value of truth, good and beauty and how they crystallized in Western civilization. This paper aims to shed some of the main ideas that give substance to the novel and gauge its value. In particular, the relationship between the present and the past, between tradition and progress and the option of accommodation or rebellion against current mainstream dynamics, will be valued. Finally, this paper will try to show how the whole novel revolves around the notion that there is a truth and that it is beautiful and what role that truth has in human life.

This text presents a fragment of empirical research carried out in the dissertation on learning mechanisms in the context of a rebellion (participation in protests and demonstrations). In the analyzed empirical material, the author identified the strands that show the problem called “socialization to/of rebellion”. Examined people talked about the beginnings of their participation in demonstrations and protests, interalia in the context of family and peerial environment from an early age. The purpose of research, however, is not to reconstruct the process of socialization, but to understand and describe the mechanisms oflearning in the context of rebellious actions. The result of this learning is, among other things, a definedidentity.

W niniejszym tekście zostanie zaprezentowany fragment wyników badań empirycznych na temat mechanizmów uczenia się w kontekście buntu (uczestnictwa w protestach i manifestacjach). W analizowanym materiale empirycznym pojawiły się wątki, które ukazują problematykę nazwaną roboczo „socjalizacją do buntu”. Osoby badane opowiadały o początkach swojego udziału w manifestacjachi protestach między innymi w kontekście środowiska rodzinnego i rówieśniczego od najmłodszych lat. Można zatem mówić o aspekcie socjalizacyjnym badanego zjawiska. Celem badań nie jest jednak rekonstrukcja procesu socjalizacji, ale zrozumienie i opis mechanizmów uczenia się w kontekście działań buntowniczych. Efektem tego uczenia się jest między innymi określona tożsamość.
