Witnessing the Crisis
This article analyzes the epistemological and ethical challenges and difficulties of conducting research on the humanitarian crisis at the Polish-Belarusian border from the dual perspectives of the researcher and the activist. The distinctive feature of this research is its overtly political engagement, which necessitates a departure from the conventional “objective” stance and an immersion in the work at the grassroots level. The research is als…
Hybrid war’, military humanitarianism, and epistemic friction. Framing illegalised migration on the Polish-Belarusian border
This article aims to contribute to the understanding of the phenomenon of the ‘humanitarian border’ in its specific local context of Polish nationalism and the use of patriotic sentiments to justify violence at the border. The intensification of asylum-seeker migration from Asia and Africa on the EU's eastern border, triggered by the Lukashenka regime since the summer of 2021, was quickly dubbed as ‘hybrid war’, enabling the Polish government to …
Kwestia smaku. O klasowym wymiarze upodobań kulinarnych, alternatywnych systemach wartości i legitymizacji nierówności społecznych
Socjologiczne rozumienie smaku naznaczone jest silnie teorią Pierre’a Bourdieu, który uczynił go jednym z podstawowych obszarów kulturowej analizy zróżnicowania klasowego. Hierarchiczna opozycja smaku z konieczności i smaku z luksusu jest stałym punktem odniesienia w badaniach gustów kulinarnych. Artykuł jest próbą rehabilitacji znaczeń wiązanych ze smakiem z konieczności postrzeganym w relacji do smaku z luksusu jako brak tego, co charakteryzuje…
Different Meanings of Proper Nutrition: The Sociopolitical Dynamics of the Relationship between Body and State in the 1970s and 2010s Poland
In this article, we comparatively analyze expert discourses and lay attitudes to healthy eating in socialist and contemporary Poland. The investigation makes apparent significant changes that have occurred in between these two periods. From legitimate and peremptory knowledge with an unchangeable and universal character, dietary guidance evolved into being much less authoritative in nature, facilitating various alternative ways of thinking and de…
I still remember this taste”. Senses and emotions in perceiving cultural change
This article focuses on the problem of food memories within the context of individual life stories and collective histories from post-war Poland. The category of taste understood as a sensory experience, a cultural code, and a social norm provides an insight into the ways in which senses evoke and format memory, and how they become a tool for interpreting the past and evaluating the present. Taste memory influences both personal accounts of indiv…
Entre orthodoxie et catholicisme: Des cimetières ruraux aux frontières de la Pologne et de la Biélorussie
L'espace de plusieurs cimetières ruraux de Pologne et de Biélorussie, à la frontière de l'orthodoxie et du catholicisme, est ici analysé. L'article cherche à montrer comment les liens de parenté et les relations de voisinage neutralisent les différences confessionnelles qui sont, d'habitude, un important facteur de division dans les communautés paysannes. L'organisation spatiale du cimetière avec les groupes de tombes d'une même famille, les règl…
