In this article, the main subject of interest is the media image of gender, which is a relatively new phenomenon in the Polish public discourse but arouses strong emotions. The content analysis included materials containing the notion of gender, published in the editorial section of “Gazeta Wyborcza” between 2010–2014. The research showed that the issue of the social and cultural aspects of gender is more and more often present in the public debate, which is strongly polarized in nature. The gathered data allowed for the enumeration of subjects which include the context connected with gender and showed the essence of presenting this subject, in a specific Polish daily newspaper, casting light on the debate in this area.

In global context international organizations like World Bank, UNDP and UNIFEM have begun to recommend that women should increasingly constitute a growing share of the civil service. This recommendation is an expansion of the positive discrimination position to increase gender equality rooted in the belief that women are morally superior to men, that is, are less inclined to accept corruption. Thus in societies characterized by systemic corruption gender based recruitment promises perhaps not a quick fix but at least a supplement to other anticorruption efforts. Given the prevalence of corruption in Latvia this paper questions is Latvian female civil servants really are morally superior to their male colleagues, or are the differences in attitudes towards corruption, punishment and nepotism an artefact of a socio-economic gender gap? Based on a survey of 500 Latvian civil servants, it is found that Latvian women do perceive corruption to be more widespread than men but are less inclined to support increased penalties for civil servants and firms caught in the act. These results are indicators of a socioeconomic gender gap. However, corruption is particular inherently difficult to research when respondents are asked about their own activities. Knowing that these activities are immoral if not outright illegal respondents are likely to ‘colour’ their answers. Therefore the present research capitalizes on the later years methodological developments by, for the first time, introducing the list experiment to the study of nepotism in surveys. Holding one group of respondents constant and only vary the list of answers slightly for the remaining respondents it is possible – without the respondents knowing this – to trace the prevalence of nepotism among Latvian civil servant. Using this technique no differences between the genders with respect to nepotism were found. In turn, the upbeat positive story is that Latvian civil servants espouse values that underpin modern administrative thought. The paper does not discuss positive discrimination as such but given the find that women are not morally superior to men this argument should not be used in the affirmative for a change in recruitment policies to the civil service.

The paper deals with the legislative activity of local government bodies in relation to so-called “problem resolutions” The scope of the article covered over 50 resolutions on sexual ethics issues. Problem resolutions of municipal (county, regional) councils are sequentially discussed in the following sub-sections: gender ideology, public expression of the views of the LGBT movement, legalization of same-sex unions, pornography and prostitution. According to the author, the best form of control of the given resolutions is social control carried out by the residents of local communities within the framework of the electoral mechanism. Sub-jecting such resolutions to substantive review by the administrative courts would result in the judiciary’s entanglement in axiological, philosophical, historical and political disputes. Recognisable shortcomings in the functioning of the title institution should not obscure the importance of problem resolutions as a form of local government expression.
