Władysława Jachera koncepcja pracy ludzkiej
Władysława Jachera koncepcja pracy ludzkiej
(Władysław Jacher and His Concept of Human Labor)
- Author(s):Janusz Mariański
- Language:Polish
- Subject(s):Sociology
- Page Range:27-50
- No. of Pages:24
- Keywords:human work; market; culture; ethics; morality
- Summary/Abstract:The article analyzes Władysław Jacher’s views and reflections on human labor, a sociologistat the University of Silesia in Katowice. The axiological‑normativedimensionof human labor plays an important role in his research. He began his scientific work byanalyzing St. Thomas Aquinas’ texts, deriving important components on human laborfrom them. Based on his research, human labor has been defined as: “conscious humaneffort undertaken in order to bring about goods, which one needs for life and personalgrowth hidden within and in the surrounding nature.”An axiological‑normativeconcept of man lies at the basis of Władysław Jacher’sdiscussion on human labor. Man, among all the creatures on earth, is a unique being,and apart of corporeality is also endowed with reason and free will. As a person, manlives simultaneously and inseparably in both the spiritual and bodily dimensions, andmust be regarded as a unique value in himself, deserving respect. A man cannot betreated as an object of possession or thing that can be freely manipulated.Work is not only the production of something, but it is an activity with someoneand for someone. Hence, sometimes a company is compared to a family. Managementand workers interact in a selfless way so as to reduce the burden of work and improvesocial relationships. The concepts of homo faber and homo economicus require yet to becomplemented with the notion of homo cooperativus. Work from the personal perspectiveis a duty and obligation of man, not only because the Creator wanted it to be so,but also to maintain and develop one’s humanity and to fulfill moral obligations, firsttowards one’s family, and then neighbors. In his discussion on human labor and itsaxiological‑normativedimension, Władysław Jacher’s stance is very close to that of theSocial Doctrine of the Catholic Church, namely its social aspects pertaining to humanlabor in its individual and social dimensions.

- Summary/Abstract:The aim of the article is to analyze the most dangerous tendency desire to maximizethe potential of knowledge in the organization. Therefore I put the thesis that thedanger flowing from the modern programs of knowledge management in organizationsis to deprive the knowledge of her moral right to be responsible for the truth. Instead,it is proposed to treat knowledge as a capital or resource organization. In the secondapproach, knowledge is becoming a product of a particular person, subject to furtherprocessing and use. If knowledge is primarily a resource and capital all moral limits ofreason during the creation, processing and use shall be considered as anachronistic andanti‑development.One of the extreme effects of knowledge management as a capital,undermining the tradition of its creation, it may be the destruction of civilization conditionsfor the development of knowledge as an effect of the approximation to the truth,which is a kind of “death of knowledge”.

- Summary/Abstract:The aim of the article is to present a reflection on specificity of the social bondsinitiated in virtual space.The subject of author’s interest is an Internet forum gathering competitors and viewersof TV quiz show Name that tune (Jaka to melodia). The most active members of theforum meet regularly in a real world, in this way they tighten the interpersonal ties. Inthis virtual community there is no full anonymity (acorporeality, as Mark Smith wouldput it), many participants know each other from the TV screen. Its main characteristicis the equalization of the members’ social status — their education, practised profession,financial position and social background are of no importance here (astigmatic inMark Smith’s terminology). The process of communication is also aspatial, because peopleinvolved in communication can be far away from each other and interactions do notdepend on the place of residence. Another feature is a possibility of synchronous andasynchronous communication.Forum — defined by the author as webtribe, constitutes a group in a sociologicalsense, although it has got a loose structure and low degree of social organization. Itsbinding agent is an awareness of mutual interests, common problems and aspirations(objective, subjective and behavioural bond).
