This paper is concerned with the feminisation of contemporary Polish historical novel, especiallyof its biographical variant. Transforming traditional narratives and restoring the memoryof women in history are the most important tasks of herstory, a discipline born in the twentiethcentury out of the question about the role and place of women in the history of humankind. The authorof this paper pays particular attention to the texts of popular culture, especially biographical novelsabout women written by female writers, such as Ewa Stachniak, Janina Lesiak and Alina Zerling--Konopka. Historical novels written by female authors bring into sharp focus the postulates of feministliterary criticism, such as reclaiming the history of women by filling in the gaps in historicalnarratives and shifting the point of view, which allows for the depiction of the activity of womenin the fields traditionally considered male. What emerges from such novels are unobvious themes,but also the revision of the solidified images of famous figures. However, a considerable numberof those texts does not translate into their artistic merit.

Precarity applies to people who, in order to survive, need to work in a low-quality job, which is uncertain, temporary, low-paid, with no prospect of promotion, no security and no contract. In this sense, the precariat is a category related mostly to the secondary segments of the labour market according to the concept of the dual labour market. It is also the universal feature of Post-Fordism and the modern working conditions in which women, more often than men are located in the “worst” segment of the labour market. In this context, it is worth noting that since the beginning of the era of globalisation, women have mostly worked in the sectors more uncertain and unstable e.g., in the service industries and trade. It has been feminisation in a double sense of the word: there have been more and more working women, on the one hand, and on the other hand, women have usually taken the flexible jobs. Most of these jobs are precarious work. Precarity combined with job insecurity and low wages leaves the workforce in this group unable to plan for their future or afford a decent life. This article attempts to prove that the threat of precarity is more probable for women than men. This claim is supported by the OECD and Eurostat data on precarity for Poland and other European countries.

Przedmiotem artykułu jest metamorfoza wizerunku współczesnego młodego mężczyzny w mediach południowokoreańskich w ciągu ostatnich dwudziestu lat. Analizie, wprawdzie dość selektywnej, poddane zostaną męskie ikony popularnych seriali telewizyjnych, filmów fabularnych oraz programów rozrywkowych. Zjawisko kkotminam, czyli pojawienie się mężczyzn-kwiatów wynika z połączenia wielu czynników: zmian w mentalności współczesnych kobiet, upadku norm konfucjańskich oraz mody na wydelikaconych, androgenicznych mężczyzn. Cokolwiek doprowadziło do jego powstania, sfeminizowany wzór urody męskiej zasługuje na poważne badania kulturoznawcze, medioznawcze i socjologiczne.

The subject of the article is metamorphosis of the image of the contemporary young man in the South Korean mass media over the last twenty years. An analysis, while quite selective, will cover the masculine icons of the popular TV series, feature films and entertainment programmes. The phenomenon kkotminam, i.e. appearance of ‘flower men’, results from a combination of many factors: changes in the contemporary women’s mentality, the fall of Confucian norms, and the fashion for delicate, androgenic men. Whatever has led to its appearance, the effeminate model of the masculine beauty deserves serious cultural studies as well as those related media and sociological ones.

The contribution is aimed at study of views and attitudes towards the contents of Technical education from the perspective of elementary school female teachers in Slovakia. Their measurement was carried out by a self-designed questionnaire which was a part of the research methods used (content analysis of curricular documents, international comparison, interview and observation). The originally designed questionnaire included items aimed at finding out views (evaluation of the importance of contents of education) and attitudes (cognitive, affective and conative components) of primary education teachers towards the contents of Technical education in the 4t form of elementary school. The research sample consisted of 334 female teachers. According to results of analysis, teachers considered such themes as traditions and crafts or catering to be more important than themes connected with the use of technical materials and design and they also had more positive attitudes to such themes. Another conclusion is that explanations of the views on the importance of the preferred themes were accounted for mainly by the affective component of teachers’ attitudes.

Precarity applies to people who, in order to survive, need to work in a low-quality job, which is uncertain, temporary, low-paid, with no prospect of promotion, no security and no contract. In this sense, the precariat is a category related mostly to the secondary segment of the labour market, according to the concept of a dual labour market. It is also the universal feature of Post-Fordism and the modern working conditions in which women, more often than men, are located in the ‘worst’segment of the labour market. In this context, it can be noted that since the beginning of the era of globalization, women start working particularly in those sectors that were more uncertain and unstable e.g. in services and trade. It was feminization in a double sense: there were more and more working women on the one hand, and on the other hand, the flexible jobs were undertaken usually by women. Most of these kind of jobs were precarity jobs. Precarity is combined with insecurity, which does not allow the people in this group to plan anything, and wages so low that they can’t afford a decent life. In the article I would like to prove that the threat of precariat is more probable for women than men. I present data related to precarity for Poland compared to other European countries (based on data from Eurostat and the OECD).

Artykuł koncentruje się na sposobach realizacji polityki równości płci w Niemczech na przykładzie zawodu wychowawcy/wychowawczyni w instytucjach przedszkolnych. Wspierane przez rząd federalny projekty modelowe mają za zadanie przełamywać społeczne stereotypy i przynoszą już dziś wymierne rezultaty. Widoczne jest wyraźne odejście od pierwotnej wizji zawodu, który u swych źródeł był skierowany wyłącznie do kobiet, w efekcie również współcześnie sfeminizowany. Sytuacja ta, niezmienna przez prawie 200 lat, jest efektem lekceważenia w politycznym dyskursie rangi tej grupy zawodowej i traktowania jako „niewidocznej”. Aktualna polityka rządu wspiera zatrudnienie mężczyzn w przedszkolach i powoli zmienia zastany stan. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie głównych projektów modelowych realizowanych w ostatniej dekadzie przez wszystkie kraje związkowe wspierane przez rząd federalny, ale też analiza ich kluczowych założeń oraz przyjmowanej argumentacji. Zaangażowanie rządu w realizację projektów zorientowanych na wsparcie zatrudnienia mężczyzn w placówkach przedszkolnych i monitorowanie ich rezultatów można odczytać jako przykłady realizowanej w praktyce polityki równości płci. W rezultacie wyłania się tu bardzo ciekawy obraz, w którym kwestie ogólne, obecne w debatach społecznych (gender) zostały połączone ze specyficznymi dla grupy zawodowej „ErzieherIn” – jak wzrost rangi wczesnej opieki i edukacji, ale też poważne braki kadrowe. Pojawiające się na tym polu napięcia rzutują na tempo zmian, w którym tradycja ustępuje współczesnym oczekiwaniom społecznym.

The article focuses on the ways of implementing gender equality policies in Germany, as exemplified by pre-school staff. Today, model projects supported by the federal government are designed to overcome social stereotypes and bring measurable results. There is a clear departure from the original vision of the profession, which at its source was directed only at women, and as a result, it is also feminised nowadays. This situation, constant for nearly 200 years, is the result of disregarding the rank of this professional group in the political discourse and treating it as “invisible”. The current governmental policies support the employment of men at preschools, so the present-day status is slowly changing. The purpose of the article is to present the main model projects implemented in the last decade by all federal states supported by the federal government, but also to analyse their key assumptions and the adopted arguments. The government’s involvement in the implementation of projects focused on supporting the employment of men in pre-school institutions and monitoring their results, can be seen as examples of practical gender equality policies. As a result, a very interesting picture emerges, in which general issues that are present in social debates (gender) have been combined with the specifics for the professional group “ErzieherIn”, such as, increasing the rank of early care and education, but also serious staff shortages. Tensions in this field influence the pace of change in which tradition is giving way to contemporary social expectations.
