The purpose of this article is to determine how disabled people living in rural areas spend their leisure time. The basic method of gathering research material was diagnostic survey, in which the author’s questionnaire was used. The study was conducted in 2010. The material presented relates to the research group, made up of 800 people with disabilities living in rural areas of the Lublin province. It turned out that disabled people have 5–6 hours of leisure time a day, with women having more free time on weekdays, and men having more free time on holidays. Among the active forms of leisure both men and women prefer walking and practicing various forms of sport and recreation. Passive rest in both groups means listening to music, watching TV and using the computer and the Internet. Sports and recreation forms popular among both men and women include walking, cycling and gymnastics.

The paper presents the situation of persons with disabilities in Poland with special emphasis on.its legal, financial and employment aspects. The analysis focuses on the present condition but certain elements of the social situation of that particular group of people are described from the historical perspective, from the perspective of the past, present and future. References to legal regulations of these problems applied in the European Union also constitute the integral thread of the considerations shown in the paper. That approach enabled the presentation of tendencies and basic circumstances in the field as well as the presentation of the relatively complex evaluation of the protection of rights of the disabled. The paper discusses only some problems of the social environment of the disabled, but from the point of view of the author the most important ones. Their recognition was not an easy task due to multiplicity, diversity and variability with time of data characterizing the situation of the persons with disabilities. Equally important issues connected with their social and professional rehabilitation as well as prevention are also to be the subject of further interest.

The article is devoted to the social-cultural phenomenon of eventization. Events, also called “great mass events”, gain ever greater significance in various domains of social life. The author tries to answer the questions about what in fact an event is, what characteristics distinguish it from other social situations, and what function it performs in the postmodernist society. She also analyzes developmental tendencies that have led to the great and ever increasing popularity of this phenomenon. Events are new forms of socialization, different from both traditional communities and modern associations. Their popularity results from the fact that they fit the expectations of the modern man better than other forms do. It is true that the modern man misses community, but at the same time he would like to avoid the effort and risk that are connected with building close inter-human relations.

The article presents changes that have occurred in the past 20 years in the field of leisure time of the Poles. Both the issue of changes in the very amount of free time as well as the ways of spending it by representatives of different social categories appear interesting. The article contains existing data illustrating various ways of spending leisure time, i.e., active (e.g., sports, family and friends meetings) and passive (e.g., watching TV, browsing the Internet) both before the transformation period and within the last 20 years. The scope conveys also participation in culture-both institutionalised as well as home originated. The fundamental thesis of the article is the assumption that in the past 20 years the Poles have adopted global models of spending leisure time, promoted in the media, which is simply put in the paper subtitle-from a bonfire to a barbecue.

Free time is one of the significant phenomenon of contemporary life. People‘s attitude towards time and leisure is influenced by the Judeo-Christian tradition as well as by contemporary consumer trends. The author builds on the teachings of J. Pieper and R. Bleinstein and seeks to establish the place of leisure in theology. From philosophical reflections about understanding time he moves to topics of social ethics which are linked with the modern concept of leisure. Leisure consequently appears as an area for the realisation of interpersonal relationships as well as for searching for God, as it corresponds with the biblical idea of the Sabbath. At the end of the article the author reflects on pastoral care in the context of a “leisure society”.
