Wszechobecne upokarzanie (Na marginesie artykułu Andrzeja Szahaja pod tytułem „Kultura upokarzania”)
Omnipresence of Humiliation (Capturing Andrzej Szahaj’s Article – “Culture of Humiliation”)

Summary/Abstract: The article presents some remarks on Andrzej Szahaj’s “Culture of Humiliation” published in “Odra”. I accept author’s two theses. First of them disputes on polish TV programs like “Poland Got Talent” or “Top Model” and how they mirror the condition of our society and the ideology spread throughout the country Neo-Liberal ideology. Second thesis states that “culture of humiliation” is proportional directly to the social equality. I did a search on other likewise TV programs that would show examples of that kind of culture. Here are some of them: “Chcę być piękna”, “Łabędziem być”, “Kuchenne rewolucje”, “Ugotowani”, “Perfekcyjna Pani Domu”, “Rozmowy w toku”. I also pay attention to the fact, that these programs have equivalents in media designed for kids which makes Neo-Liberal model part of socialization.
