This article refers to a reflection of researchers from the Poznań school of cultural studies (Artur Dobosz, Anna Pałubicka) regarding the concept of schizophrenic dissolution (a term coined by Jan Mazurkiewicz) and its possible application in an analysis of postmodern culture. The author of the article argues that the said dissolution – understood as a struggle between the prelogical/magical/metamorphic thinking and the causal/logical, abstract one – takes place not only in a person’s psyche but is also reflected in the media space, for example through the creation and functioning of the so-called virtual identity.

In my article, I would like to present a few examples, both in the field of professional psychology and popular psychology, showing the desocialization (disocializing) and depoliticizing (depoliticizing) dimension of these practices carried out by individual people who, thanks to appropriate tools (this word is very fashionable in popular therapeutic practices), they give the possibility or hope for this possibility, to „improve oneself”, to create a „better version of oneself”, as the popular advertising slogan says.

W swoim artykule chciałbym pokazać kilka przykładów, zarówno z obszaru psychologii profesjonalnej, jak i psychologii popularnej, pokazujących desocjalizacyjny (odspołeczniający) i depolityzacyjny (odpolityczniający) wymiar tych praktyk realizowanych przez poszczególne osoby, które dzięki odpowiednim narzędziom (to słowo bardzo modne w popularnych praktykach terapeutycznych), dają możliwość, czy nadzieję na tę możliwość, „ulepszenia siebie”, tworzenia „lepszej wersji siebie”, jak mówi popularne hasło reklamowe.

The article Human zoo today or humiliation in pop-culture age is devoted to a description and criticism of various – in terms of media genre and subject matter – television programmes featuring an element of humiliation, shame and contempt for their protagonists and participants. Author believes that some of the programmes show their participants as well known curiosum from Early Modern Age and human zoo as well. Other or “savage” does not come from geographical periphery any more, but now comes from periphery our postmodern, consumption and neoliberal culture. Other can be for example a villager or TV show member.

Autor zwraca uwagę na upokarzanie uczestników programach rozrywkowych. Jako przykład podaje programy, których celem jest znalezienie uczestnikowi partnera seksualnego, romantycznego i które oparte są na dychotomii miasto/wieś: „Chłopaki do wzięcia” „Rolnik szuka żony”, „Dżentelmeni i wieśniacy. Autor udowadnia, że ukazana w tych programach pogarda wobec środowiska wiejskiego wywodzi się z eurocentryzmu i kolonializmu.

The article discusses dislike for the music genre called disco polo. This reluctance is evident in the views of many members of the intellectual elite of the Polish society who consider this music kitsch. The attitude towards this music, listened to mainly by the inhabitants of villages and small towns, is an indicator of cultural taste, and thus a sign of class affiliation. If you want to be better, humiliate disco polo listeners. The article shows that disco polo listeners turned out to be a strong anti-hegemonic resource that has not been adapted to the tastes of the upper class. Therefore, it should be degraded, because it presents a new kind of power i.e. esthetic.

W artykule poddaję refleksji niechęć do gatunku muzyki disco polo. Ta niechęć jest widoczna w poglądach wielu członków elity intelektualnej polskiego społeczeństwa, którzy uważają tę muzykę za kicz. Stosunek do tej muzyki, słuchanej głównie przez mieszkańców wsi i małych miasteczek, jest wskaźnikiem gustu kulturowego, a zatem znakiem przynależności klasowej. Jeśli chcesz być lepszy, poniżaj słuchaczy disco polo. W artykule pokazuję, że słuchacze disco polo okazali się silnym zasobem antyhegemonicznym, który nie został dostosowany do gustów wyższej klasy. Dlatego należy nim gardzić, gdyż oparł się nowej władzy – estetyce.

This article is the third and the last part of the discussion on Ludwik Fleck’s theory of thought styles and collectives. According to his ideas every perception is conditioned by the thought style. There is no neutral perception, it is always determinated by the cultural context and particular thought collectives. It applies also to the perception based on the common sense. This article presents several examples of how human body might be perceived by different thought collectives. The first one shows how “dead” metaphor manipulates the content of the perception, the other one highlights the relationship between the invention of individual, European individualism and the perception of the face. This article series dedicated to Ludwik Fleck was supposed to discuss his ideas, which seem to be very interesting for ethnologists and anthropologists. From the theoretical point of view, Fleck ideas may inspire or supplement the theory of culture. His concepts might be used by various humanities, especially that he relates them to the context of ‘primitive cultures’. The theory of thought styles and collectives might be applied to the research on theory of cognition, cultural aspects of nature, theory of sight, common sense, cultural change, socialization, circulation of knowledge in the society, analysis of meanings, etc. The scope of problems discussed by Ludwik Fleck is very wide and quite interesting for social scientists.

The article presents some remarks on Andrzej Szahaj’ s “Culture of humiliation” published in “Odra”. I accept author’s two theses. First of them disputes on polish TV programs like “Poland got talent” or “Top Model” and how they mirror the condition of our society and the ideology spread throughout the country Neo-Liberal ideology. Second thesis states that “culture of humiliation” is proportional directly to the social equality. I did a search on other likewise TV programs that would show examples of that kind of culture. Here are some of them: “Chcę być piękna”, “Łabędziem być”, “Kuchenne rewolucje”, “Ugotowani”, “Perfekcyjna Pani Domu”, “Rozmowy w toku”. I also pay attention to the fact, that these programs have equivalents in media designed for kids which makes Neo-Liberal model part of socialization.
