Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores a century-long debate among Polish intellectuals regarding the suitability of the Western model of liberal progress and industrial civilization for Poland. It examines opposing ideas such as native cultures versus cosmopolitan civilization and traditional customs versus a mobile society. The author analyzes these themes while providing a revised English edition that includes explanatory notes, a chronology, maps, and a new Introduction that draws parallels between historical discussions and contemporary issues facing Poland after communism.
