The current editor-in-chief of 'Kultura i Spoleczenstwo' (Culture and Society) presents in her text the fifty-year-old history of the quarterly. She distinguishes five periods: 1957-1959 - 'bold beginning', 1960-1968 - 'research of modernity and integration of humanities', 1969-1979 - 'after the first twelve years', 1980-1982 - 'time of continuity', 1983-2001 - 'regular scholarly journal', 2002-2006 - 'continuation and change'. These periods are marked, first and foremost, by changes on the position of the editor-in-chief. Moreover, the authoress characterizes the specificity of the journal which comprises of: consistently emphasized interdisciplinary character of the journal, a clearly defined thematic focus - i.e. concentration on a broadly defined culture and its changing character, concern for preservation and reinforcement of the social sciences tradition in Poland - and also the elements of continuation within the quarterly itself, despite various shifts conditioned by external circumstances.

The author portrays Antonina Kloskowska as a theorist and sociologist of culture. He writes about her early inspirations and traces her later fascinations: socio-cultural formation of individual character, personality, national character; search for mutual relations - theoretical and empirical - between various dimensions of culture within a global culture and the developed concept of culture as a symbolic and autotelic phenomenon. Drawing from the achievements of international sociology and continuing the Polish sociological tradition Kloskowska formulated the theoretical and methodological foundations of sociology of culture as an independent field of sociological research. Her studies which laid a foundation for intensive contacts between the sociologists of culture and representatives of other fields of liberal arts formed several generations of students of culture in Poland.

The article analyzes the issue of relevance of Stanislaw Ossowski's theoretical concepts. It particularly focuses on three themes present in his writings: the attitude to Marx's legacy, the assumptions of his non-communist socialism and relations of sociology to philosophy. It is stressed that the contemporary relevance of Stanislaw Ossowski's writings relies not only on the theoretical value of his work in many disciplines, but - above all - their interdisciplinary character. Needless to say, Ossowski still remains a moral authority for many academics specializing in humanities.

The authoress alludes to Józef Chalasinski's article from 1946 entitled 'Polska lezy w Europie' (Poland lies in Europe) and published in the major weekly of his day, 'Odrodzenie' (Rebirth) devoted to social and cultural issues. That article is claimed to be absolutely valid today when Poland has joined the EU. By emphasizing the European aspect of the Polish culture and history, Chalasinski successfully played up the problem of Poland's place in Europe and the need to consider the practicalities. In which Europe? He developed this idea further over the next 20 years of his scholarship (1946-1966) which he then compiled in his book 'Kultura i naród' (Culture and nation) published in 1968. According to the authoress, Chalasinski treats the notion of society as primal and preceding the notion of socialism which only broadens the notion of society with ideas of social justice, freedom and solidarity in attaining common good. She also suggests that by linking the ideas of Europe and Europeanism with those of Poland and Polish Europeanism in 1946 he was accentuating not only their geographical but most of all historical and cultural connections.

The article describes the less-known aspect of Stanislaw Ossowski's life - his stay and work in Lvov from December 1939 to October 1941. Ossowski came to Lvov through Bialystok, after Poland's defeat in 1939, he survived the soviet occupation there and returned to Warsaw a few months after Lvov was taken over by the Nazis. During that time he conducted his academic work in Ossolineum, where he organized the Art Cabinet and devoted his time to social sciences. Lvov also became Ossowski's meeting point with the soviet regime and its functionaries as well as with the military Nazi authorities, which enabled him to observe complicated attitudes of people towards any of the governing bodies. Ossowski filtered and analyzed these social facts and own experiences from Lvov which resulted in his formation as a scholar. The article is based on such source materials as correspondence and diaries of Ossowski, written and oral relations, archival documents and studies related to Ossowski, his environment and his circle of friends.

This paper describes the political circumstances of the renewal of Polish sociology after its banishement during the the Stalinist regime (1949-1955). Between 1956 and 1961 the sociological community was fragmented, as a result of the ruling communist party's insistance that all sociology should be marxist and used as a tool of ideological indoctrination and propaganda. Founded in 1961 'Studia Socjologiczne' opened up an opportunity for the integration of the sociological community. This was possible as a result of a compromise between the marxisits and sociologists representing other theoretical viewpoints. As a result, 'Studia Socjologiczne' managed to present a number of sociological perspectives - this was unique amongst countries under the Soviet influence. The latter part of the paper describes the status and role of the journal between 1961-2011.

Sociology underwent major changes between both World Wars. Empirical sociology began to dominate and field work conducted according to the methodology of the Chicago School was developing. Similar changes also took place in Polish sociology where developments were influenced by Florian Znaniecki's sociological school in Poznan. This was also a period of intensive development in ethnological research, due to Bronislaw Malinowski's seminar in the London School of Economics which was attended by many Polish ethnologists and sociologists. The young generation of social scientists soon dominated sociological research. Among the most important of them were sociologist Jozef Chalasinski, a student of Znaniecki, and ethnologist Jozef Obrebski, a disciple of Malinowski. New developments in field research allowed these two to meet and to cooperate in the field of empirical sociology.
