Stanisława Kowalczyka personalistyczna koncepcja społeczeństwa

Abstrakt

The article aims at presenting Stanisław Kowalczyk’s most important – according to the author – academic achievement, that is the personalistic conception of society. Presentation of this conception starts with defining the peculiarity of Kowalczyk’s personalism against the background of other approaches, and with a brief justification of giving the approach the name of the personalistic-nationalist one. This is connected with a special significance that is given in this conception to analyses concerning the issues of society, culture and politics. Next, the most important questions connected with the understanding of the human person and his attributes are discussed. This has allowed passing to the question of the origin and nature of human society, especially in its natural form of the family and of the family of families, that is to the nation. The analysis further developed towards presenting the most important principles and values of social life. The last of the tackled subjects are politicalsystemic issues. The present argument is focused on the questions that are most important for the conception of society in Kowalczyk’s approach, so that its coherence, synthetic character and homogeneity, despite tackling many aspects of social life, can be shown.
