Summary/Abstract: The question of the phenomenon of rivalry implemented at school is one of the most difficult. Boguslaw Sliwerski has made the culture of rivalry and cooperation at school the subject of a monograph – a difficult one, because it does not bring definite answers. The topic is important, because without both of them – rivalry and cooperation – there will be no success, either on an individual or social level. Reinforcing the phenomenon of rivalry in the 21st century with the dimension of struggle as a game of power, success or any kind of domination and profit, reveals its dual character – when the obverse is rivalry, the reverse is cooperation. The monograph carries a warning against excessive entanglement of education in any games.
