This article looks at the marginalization of the Roma from the perspective of socio-psychological dynamics of society. The author takes the specific case of Roma settlements in Slovakia, where he has conducted anthropological research, to illustrate how the mechanism of marginalisation functions. Drawing on the work of Tzvetan Todorov and Peter L. Berger, he argues that at the heart of human sociability - the ability and necessity to live among others - is the constant human need for attention and recognition from others. This basic human need affects the socio-psychological dynamics of society, including the marginalisation as well as integration of some of its groups. This need for attention and recognition leads to the emergence of complex 'counterworlds' or 'counter-societies', with their alternative value systems. The Roma settlements and urban ghettoes represent such counter-worlds that provide their inhabitants with attention, recognition, positive self-interpretation, and confirmation of their values. If the inhabitants of these counter-worlds are unable to fulfil this need anywhere else, then their integration into wider society cannot be achieved.

The aim of this article is to present sociology as a discipline fostered by the middle classes. The author shows to what extent sociology can be understood as a tool used to help the middle classes construe their own place in society, think over their relation to it and clarify both the possibilities and limits of their actions. The mentality of the middle classes, which is a result of their ambivalent place in society, affects their accounts of social structure, social integration and social regulation. From this point of view, the author analyses the theories of social stratification and the theory of micro and macrostructure relations. He also deals with the theme of social roles. He studies the transformations of the sociological theory and methodology which accompanies the transition from the old middle classes to the new middle classes and to those of current society, which he calls the newest middle classes.

In the discussion that has been going on since the end of the WW II in Germany and which concerns German patriotism, CDU and CSU parties have taken over the role of its regulator by the extortion of taking the offensive from the SPD. At the beginning of the 21st century the debate on the patriotism in Germany was mainly focused on the value system that was supposed to be the foundation of an agreement and social activity by uniting all the social strengths for the good of the common country. The debate, carried out under the banner of ‘Leitkultur’, though socially important, was only a smoke-screen beyond which the manipulation of the immigration law had taken place. In the end, the immigration law bill was passed in a form that did not satisfy any of the co-originator parties. At the same time the act of citizenship was changed. The effectiveness of its solutions, as a means of social integration, is disputable.

The linguistic unity reinforces the national and cultural unity. The processes of urbanization, migration, technical development, as well as political and economic integration of the continent influenced the character of the language (as the element which integrates Poles). Unfortunately, growing popularity of general / higher education has not improved conversational language. The media and politicians cease to be sources of good linguistic practices, and start functioning as sources of colloquial, vulgar linguistic manners. At the same time local dialects are vanishing, social variants of languages are blending, and the language of “everyday communication” is slowly developing. The users of Polish drastically change their attitude to language perceived as a value in itself. The author illustrates those problems referring to authentic linguistic material taken from politicians’ speeches, media resources and overheard conversations.

The article explores the issue of the integration of foreigners in contemporary Poland from the perspective of certain problems typical for the social policy research and practice. After defining the main concepts, the text examines the question of social integration and its three aspects. The first aspect refers to the formal regulatory issues. The second is the psycho-cultural aspect of the integration of foreigners. The main category applied here is the notion of „ontological security” understood in Anthony Giddens’ fashion. The third aspect, the one most commonly explored, relates to the dilemmas posed by the marginalization of discriminated groups, foreigners included. The overall purpose of the analysis is to demonstrate that if the category of ontological security is included in the research traditionally dominated by the social security narrative, a better understanding could be achieved of the intricacies of the process of „negotiating” the immigrants’ position in Polish society.

The paper analyses the influence of grey economy on labour market and social integration processes. Also discussed is the definition of the phenomenon and the relevant measurement prob¬lems. The conclusion is that the effect of grey economy on socio-economic processes can be profound, but this applies only to a limited number of cases. It means that state policy in this area must be selective and carefully targeted.

The research reported in this paper tested two major claims made by Emile Durkheim more than one hundred years ago: first, that Protestants are more likely to commit suicide than Catholics, and second, that this greater vulnerability of Protestants to self-destruction is due to their lower level of social integration. Of these two statements our results confirmed the first but not the second: while Protestants have preserved - despite the profound historic changes that took place during the last several decades - their increased susceptibility to suicide, the explanation Durkheim proposed was inconsistent with many of our findings. First, contrary to what Durkheim's ideas would lead us to expect, including church attendance as a control variable did not make denominational differences disappear; in fact, it made them even stronger. And second, we found interaction effects that were hard to reconcile with Durkheim's theory: while this theory would predict religious differences to decline with increasing attachment to the church community, what actually happened was just the reverse: as the degree of social integration, measured by church attendance, increased, the gap between Protestants and Catholics widened.Therefore, it seems that in order to explain the impact of social integration on suicide, or on deviant behavior in general, we should not focus exclusively on the role it plays in reducing loneliness or individualism but also on the role it plays in conveying specific norms, values and behavior patterns. This would not only facilitate a more complete understanding of how social integration works, but would also help connect two distinct branches of theories of deviance: control theory and subculture theory.

The article presents the results of a research conducted by a group of Slovak researchers in the SIRONA 2010 project. Various spheres of life of Roma people influenced by the activity of registered and unofficial churches, religious groups and communities, have been put under analysis. The analysis, based on the indicators of social integration (WIS), referred to the changes affecting Roma societies subject to religious activity. The quality of social networks within the communities was examined, followed by the interpretation of their pro-integrative (pro-inclusive) or pro-exclusive potential.

The article presents an overview of social and economic issues concerning individuals with disabilities in Poland. After characterising the different aspects of disability, both from a medical and psycho-social point of view, trends shaping this issue in Poland are discussed based on various criteria illustrating its scale and structure in recent years. In the analytical considerations, a good deal of space is devoted to the professional activity of this group and its entitlement to rehabilitation-pension benefits, depending on the court ruling and degree of disability. Current trends in state action undertaken to promote the social integration of individuals with disabilities in Poland are presented in the conclusion.

What is the nature of suburban localities and who are their inhabitants? What is the motivation of people to move beyond the city edge? Is it a phenomenon of segregated and socially homogeneous “bedrooms” with no social connections which is emerging in the hinterland of Bratislava? When trying to answer these basic questions we often come across stereotyped perceptions therefore this paper tries to find answers by means of the Stupava case study which represents a typical suburban area. Despite the fact that suburbanization drew the attention from the expert and social perspectives, more detailed probes analysing the daily routines of inhabitants of suburbs are absent. Our paper tries to offer a deeper insight into the life of suburban inhabitants and uncover their motivations, life strategies and the character of social anchoring in their new home.

Despite its stereotypical outlook of a homogeneous administrative unit, the Silesian Voivodship is subdivided into five socio-cultural subregions and four economic areas. This heterogeneity results in a significant social and cultural potential, which might accelerate economic development. Unfortunately, the assets are dispersed all around the region, and there are no commonly shared traditions, norms, values and symbols that would enhance regional integration and regional collective action. In this context divergences of economic interests are difficult to reconcile. One may wonder whether the developmental potential, dispersed among localities, communities and sectors, can be coordinated for increasing the pace of regional development.

This paper concerns some of the major problems of the Polish society. These problems are connected with the low level of social integration. Polish society could be characterize by the weak social ties and the slight local identity. The authors tried to distinguish two political integration's perspectives: liberal and conservative. The liberal integration can be understood as a civil society and its values. They identify the conservative integration with the nation and its values. The authors pointed at some past and present integratable factors like: ideology, religion, consumption. In their research they used some of the recent data from the Social Diagnosis 2007 (ed. J. Czapinski, T. Panek). On the basis of social capital indicator they came to the conclusion that one can not talk about the civil society in Poland. Poles feel more connected with the abstract nation than the real state and people. One may say: the Pole but not the Citizen.

Although the share of immigrants in the CR is in comparison with other EU states relatively small, the number of foreign nationals quadrupled over the past two decades. The most important challenge of integration of immigrants into the labour market is releasing their full skills potential, which has also a positive impact on integration and social cohesion. The aim of this article is to examine educational mismatch of immigrants on the basis of the CZ-LFS and the 2014 CZ-LFS ad-hoc module data. The immigrants in this study are divided according to the country of origin into three groups: Slovaks, EU and non-EU countries nationals. After overview of immigrant population and its characteristic, binary logistic regression models exploring the odds of working in high-skilled occupations, empirical and subjective over-education are described.

The article deals with the topic of migration from cities to villages in the Czech Republic and Austria and the opportunities for the social integration of newcomers. It relates partly to the problems of suburbanisation but is not limited to just migration to suburban villages. The analysis is based on a qualitative study conducted in 2003-2004 using grounded theory, and it examines the subjective viewpoints of the incomers and their assessments of their situation. The author reveals two different patterns of motivation for migration, presents a typology of relationships between the incomers and the village community, and distinguishes three basic 'orientations' among the incomers: a village orientation, a city orientation, and an orientation towards self-sufficiency. These specific orientations emerge in the process of mutual interaction between the preferences of the incomers and the integration opportunities offered by particular villages; they are not exclusive and can change over time. The author closes with a summary of the differences between the situation in the Czech Republic and Austria, which may be a result of different structural conditions and different historical backgrounds.

This paper addresses Habermas's critique of the sociological theory of Talcott Parsons. It treats Habermas as exemplary for a form of critique that sought to utilise Marxian themes in order to overcome what have been widely seen as Parsons' problems in handling issues of conflict and social change. The paper argues that these problems derive from the characteristics of general theory conducted within an action frame of reference. The ambition for this type of theory is something that Habermas shares with Parsons and the paper demonstrates how the elaboration of his own theory comes to converge with that of Parsons and reproduces its problematic features. In conclusion, it is suggested that these problems can only be overcome by rejecting general theory as a mode of sociological theorising.
