Socjotechnika władzy
Sociotechnics of the power

Summary/Abstract: Discussing the matter of sociotechnics I would like to note that I will mainly concentrate on various approaches of the same problem. What interests me the most is the answer to the question of why social engineering, which is, after all, the result of a wide scientific re ection, creatively developed on the Polish scienti c ground, currently was relegated solely and not only on the canvas of the common knowledge to issues purely political. At the same time, I will try to indicate those elements which, in my opinion, contributed to uniquely identifying sociotechnics with political power. The assumption implies a thorough analysis of at least Polish literature and fundamentally determines descriptive nature of the entire study. Emphasizing the importance of linguistic purism in the social sciences I should clarify that the subject of further deliberation will be sociotechnics which is sometimes identi ed with social engineering. Personally, I separate these two concepts. Social engineering is the science which task is to select the appropriate measures. The most frequently they are associated with the appropriate values and/or help to achieve them. Social engineering is therefore the procedure for the selection of appropriate sociotechnical measures. Sociotechnics, in turn, is a collection of techniques and knowledge of cause-and- effect chains of human behaviors and attitudes, which control system, in uencing controlled system use it in order to achieve marked out by social engineering goals.
