Czy anarchia to także wolność? (Na podstawie wypowiedzi uczniów szkół średnich)
Abstrakt
The author of this sketch attempts to reach the understanding and verbalization of a notion belonging to the sphere of political life, which is apparently important for secondary schools students, namely anarchy. The answer to the question: “How does a school a young man attends affects understanding of the meaning of this word?”, has also become crucial. The research embraced one hundred students altogether from two types of schools: secondary school of general education and secondary technical school . It appeared that the youth from both groups hold reluctant attitude towards the wordnotion anarchy. Evaluating this phenomenon negatively, young people do it in the following way: they verbalize it directly; they recall featured synonyms of this notion characterizing it in a clear-cut way; they create collocations of the noun freedom with negative evaluation epithets which are supposed to be the answer to the question what anarchy is; they use common quotations, proverbs and sayings; or they use laconic statements that are clearly expressing disapproval of this state. The most noticeable differences between the respondents are mainly of formal character. Explaining the meaning of the analyzed category, the youth of secondary technical school show significantly worse skills as compared to their peers from secondary school of general education, who create less successful verbalizations.
