The topics presented in this article are based upon an exact analysis of the concept of social exclusion as well as of the struggle against such exclusion. In the analysis of the problem the systems-based approach has been applied. This approach has permitted to see the phenomenon in a quite other light. During the realization of the work attention was paid to a lack of harmony in realizing activity for the struggle against social exclusion. The starting point is the explanation of key notions that are being defined in many different ways. Managing the municipality consists in creating resources, procedures and choices of selecting resources and procedures. Management means planning, organizing and controlling. Planning means management of the future. Organizing means management of the present. Controlling means management of the past. The style of management of the municipality involves the way of creating resources, procedures and criteria of selection, in managing the future, the present and the past. Different domains of management are discussed in the area of struggle against social exclusion: managing the man threatened with social exclusion, managing a group of men being threatened with social exclusion, managing the municipality, the integrated space in the domain of struggle against social exclusion, managing the closer and farther environment of the municipality. Finally, a diagram of the organization (Foundation: "Friend of the Municipality") that realizes activities in that domain is presented.

Research background: Social services are the main social tool used for the prevention and solution of social exclusion and its risk. Services of social prevention are focused on the well-being of the whole society and they prevent it from the influence of a wide range of socio-economic phenomena related to social exclusion, understood in multidimensional terms. Purpose of the article: The purpose of the paper is to evaluate districts of the Czech Republic with respect to selected socio-economic factors that lead or can lead to social exclusion, when the emphasis is placed on the exclusion of children and youth, and to identify the causes of differences existing among these districts within the period of years 2011?2016. Methods: The paper focuses on multi-criterial assessment of districts of the Czech Republic using 23 indicators covering main aspects of social exclusion, which are processed with the Technique of Order Preference Similarity to the Ideal Solution (TOPSIS technique) in combination with the Coefficient of Variance method used to determine the indicators? weight. The results obtained using these methods are completed by the Moran?s index, Shapiro-Wilk test, Mann-Whitney test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Kendall Rank Coefficient and Levene?s test. Findings & value added: A small number of districts with very negative assessment, with the presence of social exclusion and its higher risk, respectively, are identified. Differences among regions are constant and could not be assigned to randomness or disposable changes in the structure of indicators. Higher number of children born to unmarried mothers can be considered a typical aspect of the districts with higher risk of the social exclusion. The methods applied in the research, whose results and findings are presented in the paper, can be inspiring to further studies focusing on the social exclusion in its multidimensionality. The research is framed with the European Union discourse of social exclusion, thus the presented findings also open space for the comparisons and discussions of the factors associated with the social exclusion in other European Union Member States.

Rural areas are frequently considered as likely to generate isolation, loneliness and risks of social exclusion for vulnerable people who live there. With investigations in two types of rural areas – fragile rural environments and rural areas subject to periurbanisation, we analyse interactions between the characteristics of the populations and characteristics of territories in the occurrence of social segregation and exclusion processes. Th e analysis will be based on the situation of pensioners and elderly people. We will show how residential and social trajectories of the people constitute an essential factor of inclusion vs exclusion in these territories.

The process of social exclusion influences especially the dynamically aging Polish society, particularly elderly persons living in an urban environment. There are many factors influencing the exclusion from the society, which include: the economic, health and living environment factors. Social inclusion of the seniors should be conducted on all levels of the social policy, however the most important role should be played by the local governments. Only on the local level it is possible to recognize the reasons for social exclusion and create a system in which a number of entities will include the eldest citizens to the society by way of a process of social activation. The process of activation should be programmed, realized and monitored, because only then it will become a successful process which will create a real chance to counteract social exclusion of seniors. In the introduction to the article, the author presents the theoretical aspects of social exclusion and the goals of the inclusion process. In the part devoted to the abilities of influencing social policies by the local government, the author presents an example of Częstochowa as a city that has created a senior aid program. In the third part of the article the author presents the results of the studies based on the monographic sheets of the Senior Initiative Bank, according to which, the range of the activation activities for the local senior society can be evaluated.

Dreams defined as a form of mental activity that focuses on fulfilling desires, aims, and plans regarding one’s life are a synthetic reflection of a human being’s past and presence, and his or her vision of the future. Exploring dreams has cognitive, ethical, and practical dimensions. It provides knowledge of a person’s inner life and the quality of his or her experiences. Analysis of the dreams of people with moderate intellectual disabilities expresses respect for their humanity. The findings of explorations regarding the dreams of this group of people can serve as a predictor in developing practical solutions to improve the quality of their lives. The paper presents information on the dreams of women with moderate intellectual disabilities. Their dreams refer to something that is beyond them – to the issues of self-esteem, independence, social response to disability, and the features of their situation in life. Their dreams show exclusion from the privilege of adulthood, that is – from independence. They show a strong bond between the women and their mothers, their desire to enhance their lives, and their aiming at stabilization and being among familiar, close people. Observations made in the study suggest the need for institutions that will replace motherly care in the future and will allow an enriched life.

The concept of social exclusion is widely used in academia and social policy discourse in European countries. However, one of the constituents of social exclusion, namely, exclusion from social relationships, remains unclear and underdeveloped both conceptually and empirically. Moreover, knowledge on the patterns of exclusion from social relationships among men and women in later adulthood is even less advanced. Therefore, we developed a multidimensional scale for measuring an individual’s level of embeddedness in social relationships and examined the gender patterns of social embeddedness. We applied latent class analysis to survey data collected on a sample of 2015 residents of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia aged 50+. We derived a seven-class model based on a continuum from strong to weak social embeddedness. We identified two classes with a high level of exclusion from social relations and, conversely, two classes with a high level of social embeddedness. Subsequent multinomial regression analysis revealed that gender was a statistically significant predictor in the cases of the most excluded class and one of the most socially embedded classes.

Kobieca muzyka (Women’s music) to określenie, które zwykło rozumieć się jako muzyka tworzona przez kobiety, muzyka dla kobiet i muzyka o kobietach. Takie rozumienie nie wyczerpuje jednak zagadnienia. W rzeczywistości nie chodzi tu bowiem wyłącznie o podział na muzykę damską i męską a o zwrócenie uwagi na relacje pomiędzy udziałem kobiet w szeroko rozumianej kulturze muzycznej i ich społeczną sytuacją, co jest jednym z podstawowych problemów badawczych muzykologii genderowej. Niniejsze opracowanie ma na celu ukazanie szczególnego typu wykluczenia społecznego kobiet. Odnosząc się do konkretnych przykładów zwraca uwagę na role, jakie kobiety pełnią w muzyce oraz wskazuje, że pomimo znaczących sukcesów w tej dziedzinie wciąż istnieją bariery przypisujące kobiecej muzyce określoną, wyznaczoną przez płeć, niższą jakość zawężając niekiedy ich udział wyłącznie do tematyki tekstów. Na uwagę zasługuje jednak fakt, iż coraz częściej w społeczeństwie spotyka się pogląd, że kultura muzyczna jest dla wszystkich, bo w muzyce nie płeć jest ważna, ale sama muzyka.

Women’s music is usually understood as the music made by women, music for women, and music about women. It doesn’t however exhaust the subject. In reality, it is not only about dividing music into women’s and men’s – it is about showing the relationship between culture of music and women’s situation in society, which is one of the main research topics of gender musicology. The aim of this paper is to show specific type of women social exclusion. Based on examples it indicates the roles women fulfill in music as well as the barriers that make, in spite of numerous success, women’s music worse because of their gender which negatively influences the quality but also limits women’s role to being only the lyrics subjects. In the end it is worth saying, that many people think about music in general context – it is not important who made the music because it’s the music, not gender that really matters.

In this paper the author indicates the current contexts and mechanisms of social exclusion. The presented analysis is carried out from the critical perspective. The mechanisms of social exclusion have been identified as those of neo-liberal/market character. These are the processes, such as: privatisation, decentralisation, deregulation, competition as well as commodification of social relations. The author discusses the number of incorrect assumptions of neoliberalism and social order based on those assumptions. The conclusion is that the application of those assumptions in practice of social life has caused the emergence of many social problems, namely social inequality, rising unemployment, impoverishment of many social groups, etc. The author also points out that the assumptions underlying the policy being labelled as the Third Way or the concept of inclusive and sustainable development also are pro-market in their character. This indicates that the economic growth is still considered as the main indicator of social development. The author presents the opinion that the social policy conducted in this manner leads to the occurrence of the people’s attitudes of despair and the increase in the feeling of uncertainty that are experienced at both, the individual (especially by people suffering from social exclusion) as well as the social levels. The paper ends up with the question whether and to what extent the generation of young people in Poland is affected by the mechanisms of social exclusion.

This article concerns the problem of dangers relating to the school educational process, connected with the occurrence of the phenomena of the social exclusion of children and young people. Some results of the empirical research carried out on middle-school students from Zamość schools are presented, as well as the analysis of the research and some possible ways of solving the problems in question connected with the students’ cultural activity. In order to estimate the phenomenon of social exclusion, a special “index of a student’s resistance to social exclusion” was created. Three indexes of a student’s participation in the cultural life were defined: “an index of passive participation in the cultural life”, “an index of active participation in the cultural life” and “an index of the creative participation in the cultural life”. The results of the estimation of the regression models of the index of a student’s resistance to social exclusion in relation to the index of a student’s participation in the cultural life and other control variables were presented.

This study explores pre-service teachers' views on the features and causes of social exclusion in the context of educational unsustainability. The data from expert questionnaires, assessment of research participants' personal experience with social exclusion in educational setting, their current understanding of the problem and individual suggestions for solving it were analysed qualitatively. The results indicate that, in teachers' opinion, social exclusion in education can be caused by subjective and objective factors – pupils' personal characteristics, school climate, parental influence and social causes. The research participants particularly emphasise teacher's role in reducing pupils' social exclusion by adhering to values, such as fairness, equality, empathy, cooperation and respect. The research results highlight the need for addressing the issue of social exclusion in teacher education programmes by raising future teachers' awareness of the problem and their responsibility to overcome it.

Being socially connected is a universal human need, but a substantial number of older men and women are or become excluded from these connections in later life. Exclusion from social relations (ESR) is unwanted as it undermines people’s ability to lead a healthy, active, and independent life. Policies to reduce this form of exclusion have been limited in effectiveness, due in part to a broader lack of knowledge about the dynamics of social exclusion in older ages and the intersection of social exclusion with gender constructions. To advance our understanding of ESR in later life, we develop a heuristic model based on theories and previous empirical studies. Considering the gendered constructing forces of ESR in older age that can potentially lead to loneliness and reduced health and wellbeing, the model identifies individual drivers, such as biopsychosocial conditions, personal standards and life- -course transitions, and macro-level drivers, such as norms and welfare state provisions. This model can serve as a conceptual platform for further theoretical development and empirical study on the gendered construction of ESR in later life. While our focus is on drivers of ESR and its outcomes, potential reversed effects are also discussed.

This paper provides a possible answer to the question of why so few people with disabilities enter the labor market. Introductory remarks on the importance of work and being employed in human life are followed by different definitions of disability. By reference to the basic facts about employing people with disabilities in Poland, the author identifies and examines the obstacles that make it difficult for a disabled person to get a job. Along with architectural barriers in the workplace and unfavorable attitude of the employers, there is another factor that narrows down the range of job offers available to disabled individuals: an average level of education in this group of people, comparing to others, is lower. As a consequence, job and life opportunities for this social group remain significantly limited.

Voluntary involvement may be one of the most efficient instruments policy combating exclusion. By shaping proper civic attitudes, by a possibility of gaining professional experience and contacting various groups, people who are members of groups threatened with social exclusion have the possibility to test their chances at the labor market. The article presents the value of voluntary service as an efficient tool for counteracting social exclusion, especially with respect to young people who remain unemployed, and whose situation at the open labor market is unfavorable. Social and professional activation realized through voluntary service is presented in the context of integration activities of the European Union, as well as Polish documents referring to realization of the social cohesion policy.
