Aihe: Invitation to Dr Wojciech Woźniak's lecture Inequalities as a Social Phenomenon and Political Topic in Poland" 4.4. 10-12 Pub 3

Dear all,

Dr Wojciech Woźniak, University of Lodz, is a vising teacher (Erasmus) this week at the Department of Social Research. He will give Friday 4.4. 10-12 (Pub 3) a public lecture on Inequalities as a Social Phenomenon and Political Topic in Poland. You are all sincerely welcome!


Inequalities as a social phenomenon and political topic in Poland

This lecture will be based on the outcomes of Wozniak's book “Social inequalities in Polish political discourse” (in Polish, Scholar Scientific Press, Warsaw 2012) and subsequent series of articles. Data regarding the growth of social inequalities in Poland (income, local and regional disparities, educational inequalities) in a course of transition will be confronted with the analysis of public and political discourse regarding the topic of social inequalities. The impact of political actions for the growth/petrification/decrease of inequalities will be also elaborated on.
