„Nieobecny dyskurs”: o potencjale politycznym edukacji religijnej w Polsce
„Absent discourse”: on the political potential of religious education in Poland

Summary/Abstract: The issue of the “political turn” in the context of religious-pedagogical reflection in Poland should be considered – in some sense – as “absent discourse”. Despite this, one of the leading tasks of theCatholic Church, and thus of religious education in Polish schools, is to shape believers so, that they are not only good Christians, but also citizens, aware of their rights and obligations. Based on this assumption,in the first step of the theoretical analysis, the relations between the Church itself and politics were presented. Then, the “broadened” and at the same time pro-democratic horizon of the religion lesson was outlined. Finally, the religious and pedagogical perspectives were presented, not only directly related to the political dimension of religious education in Poland, but also challenging it in terms of content, structure and concept.
