Evolution, Creationism And Evolution, Creationism and ….the normalization of human error… Student: Berit Kjosnes Area: Sociology of Knowledge Master thesis, SOCM03, 15 credits Lund’s University, institution of sociology autumn 2012 Then He spoke a parable to them: “No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new makes a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the old. And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved. And no one, having drunk old wine, immediately desires new; for he says, ‘The old is better.’ Luke 5:36-39 NKJV ABSTRACT The main aim of this thesis is to investigate how human errors become normalized so that a distorted perception of reality comes to represent the truth for a given group, field or other combination of people. With that, it also investigates whether it is possible for us to develop laws and implement regulations that aim to defend and secure human rights while, on a seemingly unconscious level, actively counteracting the very principles that the same laws and regulations rest upon. If this is possible, then how and why does it happen? Realizing that a distorted perception must be supported or generated by cognitive errors and that these errors are or can be visible, this scientist conducted a cognitive conceptualization analysis of the material of study, namely, document 11375, “The danger of creationism in education.” This was done by identifying and mapping the central concepts in the document and the meaning that they were given in this particular situation. The mapped material was then analyzed in order to identify, firstly, symptoms of dysfunctional decision making and then, cognitive errors, followed by a discussion in regard to the predicative value of cognitive errors. This research has established that distorted pictures of reality in the form of constructed truths can be accepted as constituting truth. In this case, a distorted pictures of reality did constitute truth, not just for one person but for the majority of the committee, the council, the national agencies who implemented the regulations, and lastly, for the schools who accepted them. In fact, it is likely that collective entities engage in cognitively erroneous thinking on a regular basis, and they see this as the regular way of doing things. This is possible because members of thought communities, whether at a national or supranational level, share core beliefs and implement schematas that need collective errors in order [for the schematas themselves] to exist” This study teaches us that it is possible to develop laws and implement regulations that aim to defend and secure human rights while, on an unconscious level, actively counteracting the very principles that the same laws and regulations rest upon. This can happen because core beliefs do not need single individuals in order to exist but can rest safely in collective communities in the form of thought collectives, and errors can become invisible. In the studied case, the likely influence, among others, is the focus on terrorism and on “who to trust” schematas. This research also confirms the usability of cognitive conceptualization analysis in that it can make the invisible become visible.

The Discourse of the League of Polish Families against “Others” 2001–2007 Frankfurt am Main: Peter Lang, 2013, pp. 310. ISBN 978-3-631-64132-3 (Print), E-ISBN 978-3-653-03088-4 (E-Book) Discrimination for the Sake of the Nation. The Discourse of the League of Polish Families against “Others” 2001–2007 written by Yasuko Shibata is the fourth volume of Polish Studies in Culture, Nations and Politics, a Peter Lang series that aims at publishing monographs and collections of articles dedicated to selected topics from the fields of sociology, political sciences and history. This publication is an example of the interdisciplinary Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) study, a type of the research that constitutes a very popular current in the broadly defined social sciences. It also fills the gap in the literature on the role of discriminatory and national discourses in Polish politics. Since the League of Polish Families [ Liga Polskich Rodzin (LPR)] there has been no Polish prominent political actor that would explicitly and successfully use the former category of discourse. This success, however, had its limits: LPR, the Polish far-right political party formed in April 2001 as a merger of several factions and political communities that were invoking the legacy of the National Democracy (ND), never played a key role in the Polish politics. The period between 2001 and 2007, however, was the time during which the party managed to enter twice, (2001 and 2005) the Parliament of Poland acquiring, respectively, 7,87% (36 candidates in the Sejm and 2 in the Senat) and 7,97% (34 candidates in the Sejm and 7 in the Senat) of the votes cast.

Po ujawnieniu tzw. afery gruntowej i przecieku dotyczącego akcji CBA w Ministerstwie Rolnictwa, pod znakiem zapytania stanęła możliwość dalszego funkcjonowania koalicji PiS–Samoobrona–LPR. Ostatecznie w połowie sierpnia Jarosław Kaczyński ogłosił koniec koalicji rządowej, usunął koalicyjnych ministrów, tworząc de facto mniejszościowy rząd PiS. Przez cały ten okres trwały spory i walka na oświadczenia między Andrzejem Lepperem i zdymisjonowanym szefem MSWiA Januszem Kaczmarkiem, z jednej strony, a ministrem sprawiedliwości Zbigniewem Ziobro z drugiej. Obaj politycy zarzucali ministrowi i kierowanej przez niego prokuraturze, a także CBA nadużywanie prawa, stosowanie nielegalnych działań oraz wykorzystywanie władzy do walki politycznej. Z kolei minister odrzucał te oskarżenia przypisując obu politykom niejasne powiązania z biznesem i udział w tzw. układzie – dotychczas rządzącym i wciąż mającym jego zdaniem wielkie wpływy w państwie. W Sejmie, który po wakacjach wznowił obrady, trwały proceduralne przepychanki i kłótnie dotyczące trybu jego samorozwiązania. Opozycyjna PO zapowiadała odwołanie niemal wszystkich ministrów w rządzie Jarosława Kaczyńskiego. Jednocześnie w parlamencie ujawniono tajne dotąd zeznania Janusza Kaczmarka dotyczące sposobu funkcjonowania wymiaru sprawiedliwości i służb specjalnych pod rządami PiS.

  • 8 Pologne Extremistes
    COESIO NET EUROPEAN COHESION AND TERRITORIES RESEARCH NETWORK EXTREMIST RIGHT IN POLAND Paper by Nikolay MARINOV Director François Bafoil CNRS – Sciences Po/CERI Collège Universitaire de Sciences Po – Campus de Dijon Polish extreme right fractions experienced a relatively unexpected short-lived period of electoral success in the beginning of the 21st century. This gain of public opinion approval lies on a superimposition of processes that were set in motion in Polish society throughout the transition period. For six years between 2001 and 2007, parties like the overtly extremist League of Polish families (LPR) and the populist left-right swinger Self-Defense (Samoobrona – SO), attracted media attention with the unpredictability of their electoral performance and controversy of the stances they were advocating, until a brief period in government for the first when a series of scandals exhausted their popularity and ballot box support withdrew to such an extent that even a promising environment consisting of an economic crisis could not help the extreme right resurrect from the little glorifying existence in oblivion. A contributing factor for their recent demise is the ascension of the populist right-wing Law and Justice party that diverted the more moderate elements of the electoral base. As the Polish extreme right is widely considered in the current political arrangement as practically defunct, it is legitimate to explore the way in which its presence contributed in shaping the political debate in post-communist Poland. The League of Polish families is a political party which traces its roots back to a neo-nazi racist movement founded in the early 1990s by the young Roman Giertych, he himself being a third generation of extreme right politician.

  • When Catholicism Meets the EU: It’S Not Always Euroenthusiasm
    1/2016 1/2016 When Catholicism meets the EU: it’s not always Euroenthusiasm Simona Guerra University of Leicester Abstract This paper examines why, when and how Catholicism adopts a Eurosceptic narrative and whether religious Euroscepticism can emerge in post-communist countries, also comparing how the narrative changed before and after accession. The scope is threefold: (i) first, it seeks to provide an in-depth study on Catholicism and European integration. While religion has generally been considered as supportive of a positive attitude toward the European Union (EU), this analysis shows it can also become an element of Euroscepticism; (ii) second, it focuses on the case study of Poland, using CBOS and PNES data; and (iii) third, it suggests an original framework, and explores, from a comparative perspective, when and how the Roman Catholic Church (or a branch thereof) has sought an alliance with a political party. Keywords Catholicism, EU integration, Euroscepticism, Poland, public opinion Introduction s Christians, Roman Catholics are universalists by convenience’ ‘A and favour transnational organizations, considering the Church as the cradle of culture and civilization (Nelsen and Guth, 2003). In a speech at the College of Europe in 1953, Pope Pius XII stated that the Christian faith had to be central to European integration: ‘we fear that without it Europe does not have the inner strength to preserve either the integrity of its ideals or its territorial and material inde- pendence in the face of more powerful adversaries’ (Nelsen and Guth, 2003: 18). 1/2016 1/2016 Simona Guerra 26 The fathers of European integration were led by their Christian Democratic values.

  • The Fantasmatic Stranger in Polish Nationalism: Critical Discourse Analysis of LPR’S Homophobic Discourse
    polish 2()’ 166 09 sociological review ISSN 1231 – 1413 YASUKO SHIBATA Graduate School for Social Research The Fantasmatic Stranger in Polish Nationalism: Critical Discourse Analysis of LPR’s Homophobic Discourse Abstract: The article presents how the discursive discrimination of homosexuals serves nationalism in the contemporary Polish society. Following a brief conceptual location of homophobia within the ideological movement of nationalism, the exemplar homophobic discourse of the Polish nationalists, i.e. that of the League of Polish Families (LPR), is examined through the interdisciplinary method of critical discourse analysis (CDA). In the theoretical part, the sexual minority is applied the status of the “stranger” discussed in cultural sociology; the nationalist is in turn conceptualized as a social-phenomenological actor, who perceives and categorizes the sexual “stranger” by using the knowledge circulating at the Schützean lifeworld. The CDA of the discriminatory discourse of LPR politicians, who represent such homophobic nationalists, attests that homosexuals are mobilized as the “fantasmatic” stranger in today’s Poland. Keywords: homophobia; stranger; nationalism; LPR; critical discourse analysis (CDA); the critique of fantasy. Introduction Recent observations on hate-speech in Poland notably point out the “Jewish” status of sexual minorities 1 in the society. The public discussions on homosexuality, especially those which followed the billboard campaign of “Let Them See Us” in spring 2003 and the Kraków incident on May 7, 2004, 2 draws a consensus of gender studies/queer studies scholars (e.g. Warkocki 2004; Umińska-Keff 2006; Graff 2006, 2008) that in contrast with anti-Semitism, which is presently regarded as politically incorrect by Polish citizens, discrimination toward homosexuals is limited to a loose censure, and gays and lesbians are taking over the “Jewish” status in today’s Polish society.

Ojciec nie zostawiał sobie kopii, a pisał listów bardzo wiele, po kilka czy kilkanaście dziennie. Mam już bogatą ich kolekcję, ale ciągle mam nadzieję na jej dalsze powiększenie. Niewiarygodność programowa PiS-u Z różnych stron jesteśmy bombardowani pretensjami, że Liga Polskich Rodzin nie chce wspierać rządu Marcinkiewicza. Wiele ludzi uważa, że programy PiS i LPR są na tyle podobne, że partie te powinny współpracować. I mają rację. Tyle tylko, że to nie o programy chodzi, ale o ich realizację. Cały pomysł z tzw. „paktem stabilizacyjnym” polegał na próbie przytrzymania PiS-u przy ich własnym programie. Jednak Jarosław Kaczyński uznał za konieczne pakt ten zerwać. Liczą się nie słowa, ale czyny. Przypatrzmy się bliżej, o co LPR ma do PiS pretensje. Obiecywano odrzucenie europejskiej konstytucji i renegocjację traktatu akcesyjnego. Dzisiaj Lech Kaczyński
