Values and Radical Social Change: Comparing Polish and South-African Experience

Unknown Author

4.9/5 (13002 ratings)

Description:Comparing Polish and South African experience in social matters seems to be - at the first glance - quite an exotic venture. What can eventually be common for two, so different and remote (even in geographical sense) societies and countries? Does it make any sense to juxtapose South Africa, overcoming the legacy of apartheid, and Poland, that is struggling with the remnants of the communist system? Communism and apartheid were two quite different oppressive systems. And what about cultural differences and totally different historical paths and local traditions? Such doubts are naturally legitimate, but on the other hand - all sociological grand theories take for granted that social life of various human communities cannot be reduced only to unique, local phenomena and that there is certain universality in basic mechanisms which enable the communities to function. Contents: Introduction (Edmund Wnuk-Lipinski); Reform, Revolution and Restoration: Three Features of the Post-Communist Transformation (Edmund Wnuk-Lipinski); With or Against the Tide? Changes in the Interest and Value Orientations of the Polish Society in the Systemic Transformation (Marek Ziolkowski); Political Change and Shifts in South African Value Orientations, 1990-1995: An Empirical Analysis (Hennie Kotzé); Values as the Basis for Social Transformation: Report on a South African Experience (Bernard Lategan); Ruling Ideologies and the Ruled: The Case of South Africa and Poland (Ursula J. van Beek); Values and Tolerance in a Society in Transition: The South African Case (Johann Mouton); Transformation, Reform and Attitudes to Neo-Corporatism in Poland, Finland and Australia (Krzysztof Zagorski); Building Consensus in the Economy: An Outline of the Debate (Sampie J.
