Books by Adam Podgorecki

The novels of David Lodge and Robertson Davies offer amusing insights into the bumbling brilliance of university life, but in their quest to entertain they often leave unanswered questions about the interplay between the life of a university and the social setting in which it either thrives or withers.

Finally, based on these insights and on the recent developments in sociology of law, a new theory of law is advanced, which utilizes as its important axis a conceptual differentiation between the official and intuitive law.

Examines the political and organisational pressures that were exerted upon sociologists to produce dogmatically proper results in order to give a false diagnosis of social reality. The author analyses the roles of Polish sociologists in the changes designed to bring about an alien communist utopia.
