Territorial self-government and organisation of the society

Abstract

Participation of self-government in shaping a democratic order in organising the Polish society of the 1990's shows significant correlation with the conception of the Christian social order. In the territorial self-government an institution is seen that assumes respect for the human person and his freedom. Together with these values, self-government is on principle subsidiary.

In the article the attention of the reader was also drawn to the role of localism and regionalism in social life and it was stated that these areas of reality are turned to at the times of impairment of the state's subjectivity.
