Subversive Modernity: Popular Institutions and Peasant Autobiographies in Poland at the Turn of the Twentieth Century – Addendum
How to Think with Asynchronicities about History? A Roundtable Discussion
Road not taken? Inventing, modernizing, and renegotiating the concept of association in 19 th -century Socialism
This paper investigates the intellectual lineage of the concept of association in 19th century European socialism. We trace the crucial debates and subsequent rearticulations of the concept, beginning with Charles Fourier’s reflections and further innovations spawned by his followers, finally discussing Edward Abramowski’s attempts to adjust this concept to the Polish context and create a full blown ideology by using it. Our study reveals certain…
Subversive Modernity: Popular Institutions and Peasant Autobiographies in Poland at the Turn of the Twentieth Century
Over the recent years, Polish historiography has experienced a noteworthy "people's turn." Regrettably, these works tend to reinforce stereotypes that portray the peasantry as a politically inert "mass." The objective of this paper is to challenge this portrayal of the Polish peasantry as a largely passive majority lacking effective means of contestation. To accomplish this, I delve into an analysis of peasant self-organization during the turn of…
Experimental Metaphysics
Experimental Utopia: Edward Abramowski’s “Applied Social Science
The aim of this article is to analyze the close relation between social theory (“sociological phenomenalism”) and the political ideology of the Polish thinker Edward Abramowski. Abramowski’s “applied sociology” involved: (1) the sociology of “fraternity,” examining basic forms of socialization; (2) combining social revolution with ethical self-improvement; and (3) the dissemination of “social laboratories” through the development of a network of …
Metaphysics of Cooperation: Edward Abramowski's Social Philosophy. With a Selection of His Writings
The Metaphysics of Cooperation presents the intellectual achievements of the Polish associative socialist and pioneer of social sciences, Edward Abramowski. The volume is divided into five sections, each of them contains an analysis of Polish philosopher’s work according to the issues he dealt with: sociology, ethics, politics, cooperativism, and psychology. Each part also contains a selection of his writings. Its intention is to show Abramowski’…
The self as a multitude: Edward Abramowski’s social philosophy and the politics of cooperativism in Poland at the turn of the 20th century
The article aims to analyse the thought of Edward Abramowski – a Polish philosopher, pioneer of psychology and theorist of the socialist cooperative movement. It attempts to reconstruct the impact that his social thought and his philosophical anthropology have had on the political activity of Polish cooperativism. In keeping with Michael Freeden’s thesis that an ideologist translates philosophical concepts into political practice, the author sees…
Ethical Resistance: Modernity, Revisionism, and the Warsaw School of the History of Ideas
In this article, I reflect on the Warsaw school of the history of ideas (WSHI), a loose collective of people that formed after the birth of the communist system in Poland. First, I analyse the biographical factors that determined the political and intellectual choices of the WSHI members. Next, I attempt to show the nature of their public attitudes, which can be seen as part of the habitus of post-war Marxist intellectuals in Poland. My aim is to…
The Principles of the Common: Towards a Political Philosophy of Polish Cooperativism
The aim of the article is twofold. First, it is to interpret the main philosophical ideas of the Polish cooperative movement from the first part of the twentieth century and how they were applied in practice, by using the conceptual vocabulary of post-structuralist and post-Operaist political philosophy; and, second, to further develop the notion of ―institutions of the common‖ that Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri introduced — during debates abou…
Dyskurs jako praxis. Archeologia wiedzy jako teoria materializmu performatywnego
The principal theme of the article is the ontological status of Michel Foucault's archaeology of knowledge, with reference to “aporetic” source of its inspiration, which was undoubtedly structuralism and lacanian psychoanalysis. If Foucault's main notion – discourse, is based on the socio-historical permanence of statements related to the same formation rules, discourse formation is the field where the statements are linked and stabilized in thei…
Strukturalizm i historia
Doskonale znana jest waga psychoanalizy, etnologii czy lingwistyki Ferdinanda de Saussure'a w uformowaniu si po drugiej wojnie wiatowej paradygmatu strukturalistycznego we Francji. Te trzy dziedziny (wspomagane przez demaskatorsk, wywodzc si z marksizmu, genealogiczn metod interpretacji ideologii, ktrej sednem jest krytyka ekonomii politycznej
Batalia o Człowieka. Genealogia władzy Michela Foucaulta jako próba wyzwolenia podmiotu
Twórczość Foucaulta wywołuje wciąż ożywione dyskusje nie tylko wśród filozofów, ale i przedstawicieli innych nauk humanistycznych. Stale obecny w tej twórczości wątek wzajemnych relacji wiedzy i władzy, konstytutywny dla kultury i uwikłanych w nią ludzi
