Abstract
Since 1989 the transformation of the post-communist Europe
has been referred to as building civic society in particular countries,
connected with regaining independence, recreating a sovereign
state, rebuilding political community and, above all,
making the citizen sensitive to responsibility for the society and
common good. The fifty years of totalitarianism in Poland caused
that the society, to a large degree, lost the sense of responsibility
for the things which constituted and still constitute common
property of the nation many generations. Since the time of political
changes, the time has come for a serious reflection upon
the broadly-understood education in the sphere of social life, for
considering the things which make the society live, as well as its
aspirations and desires. Therefore, we shall also reflect on how
this community perceives its common good and how it wants this
good to be realised.
