The catalogue includes the description and pictures of the history that visitors will find during their journey through seven halls of the European Solidarity Centre’s permanent exhibition–a modern, multimedia display devoted to Solidarity’s revolution and the collapse of the Soviet bloc. It is one of Poland’s biggest narrative exhibitions taking up the recent history of Poland and Europe. The display is approaching the phenomenon and originality of the Solidarity movement in an interesting way comprehensible to a variety of audiences: witnesses and participants of the depicted events, foreign guests, people from the younger generations, and even children. The basic narrative consists of historical storytelling which reconstructs the dynamic process in its numerous dimensions: political, social and cultural. This foundation allows us to convey the history of a universal idea that found a new expression in Solidarity. Visitors will learn how the revolution proceeded in Poland and Central and Eastern Europe.
The comprehensive publication presents a selection of texts and images closely related to the permanent exhibition. The Solidarity story in this anthology is built of the accounts of those directly involved in the events, juxtaposed with an iconography portraying the great metamorphosis which has occurred since–one in which politics has become a natural element of daily life. Accompanying the accounts are classic articles dedicated to the history and culture of the opposition, as well as lesser-known essays, articles and historical documents; the main thread running through these being the socio- political changes of the 1970s and 1980s, not only in Poland but in Central and Eastern Europe as a whole. The materials collected here–mainly brought together and previously published by the European Solidarity Centre sum up the scientific, publishing and archiving work carried out so far by that institution.

The social impact of Solidarity, new forms of coexistence, the crisis of democracy and capitalism, the future of Europe and of Poland are only some of the themes explored in this book by such prominent authors as Zygmunt Bauman, Edwin Bendyk, Krzysztof Czyżewski, Dominika Kozłowska, Sławomir Magala, Reinhard Marx, Cezary Obracht-Prondzyński, Shalini Randeria, Michael Sandel, Gesine Schwan, Timothy Snyder, Guy Sorman and Michel Wieviorka. This volume consists of lectures in the “Ethics of Solidarity” series and essays written for the European Solidarity Centre in 2011–2019. All of these have become inspirational for ECS, setting out topics for everyday work of the institution and helping to discover the directions in which the institution should develop to meet the challenges of modern times.

The project aimed at making good use of the existing experience in scientific research activities of the current so-called "senior" team of workers of the FSS UO, at contributing to its strengthening (among others by inviting a significant foreign expert with rich experience in managing international research teams), at enlarging the current "senior" team by new recruits from young researchers and students of PhD studies and subsequently at maintaining the newly acquired quality of a top expert team with regard to the issue of social impacts of modernization processes, new social risks (or social exclusion) in future publication and project endeavours of the faculty's workers. Implementation of the main project objectives has contributed not only to involvement of members of the research team into scientific-research subprojects (dedicated to an analysis of different fo...
