Uneventful and obscured: Housewife in postsocialist feminist art
In the article, we investigate non-spectacular, low-key, and small-scale artistic strategies rooted in everyday acts of defiance that are carried out collectively. For that purpose, we examine the political valence of the figure of housewife in postsocialist feminism by attending to the work The Resistance Kitchen (2017) of Polish artist Małgorzata Markiewicz. Intertwining ideas of Sara Ahmed, Silvia Federici, Ewa Majewska, and Olga Tokarczuk, wh…
Tender solidarities and cracks in existence: Emerging feminist subjectivities in the landscape of postsocialist feminism
This article offers an original conceptual intervention into debates on feminist subjectivity under postsocialist conditions of weakness, uneventfulness and persistence in Eastern European contexts. Drawing on Jolanta Brach-Czaina's philosophy of the ‘cracks in existence’ and the everyday bustle, it argues that feminist subjectivity in postsocialist contexts emerges not through rupture, visibility or autonomy but through relational practices of c…
Rage as a strategy of weak resistance and creative power in women’s protests and digital activism in postsocialist Poland
Rage has become an increasingly prominent affective and political force in contemporary feminist movements. In postsocialist Poland—where feminist resistance has long been sidelined in both national politics and global feminist discourse—rage has emerged as a powerful collective expression that fuses dissent with care, solidarity, and political agency. This article examines how feminist rage has shaped women’s political subjectivity in Poland, pa…
Humans as bacteria? Cultural immunology in contemporary Japan
The starting point for the considerations in the article is the statement of Keiko Yamanaka that the Japanese know nothing about resistance to the bacterium represented by another human being. In the article, however, we put forward the thesis that Japanese culture has developed a collective immune system resulting not from individual but from shared systemic immunology in connection with the performance of family, professional and social functio…

From the Feminist Ethic of Care to Tender Attunement: Olga Tokarczuk’s Tenderness as a New Ethical and Aesthetic Imperative
In her Nobel speech in 2019, Olga Tokarczuk presented the category of tenderness as a new way of narrating the contemporary world. This article is a proposal for the analysis and interpretation of tenderness in ethical and aesthetic terms. (1) From an ethical perspective, tenderness is interpreted as an extension and complement of feminist relational ethics, i.e., the ethics of care. In the proposed approach, tenderness is a broader and more univ…
Art Beyond the Anthropocene: A Philosophical Analysis of Selected Examples of Post-Anthropocentric Art in the Context of Ecological Change
In this article, the authors discuss selected examples of post-anthropocentric art, which—as they show—is associated with human sensitivity, care, empathy, and the capacity for compassion. Czakon and Michna present artistic creations that serve as examples of art that respond efficiently and quickly to the pressing problems of the contemporary world. This post-anthropocentric art, as they call it, critically reacts to major ecological and social …
Z korespondencji naukowców: Stefan Morawski i Roman Ingarden
From the Correspondence of Scientists: Stefan Morawski and Roman Ingarden The article is a scientific overview of the preserved correspondence of Stefan Morawski and Roman Witold Ingarden from 1961 to 1969. The 1960s were a period of important events and changes in both the lives of Ingarden and Morawski. In both cases, the background was the political situation in Poland, of which – in a certain sense – both philosophers became victims. Although…
