Summary: | The current article is a report on the quantitative research of civil activity
of women in the Province of Silesia (N = 200). The research technique
used here is CATI (Computer Assisted Telephone Interview). The starting
point of the proposal is the conceptualization of the term active citizenship
and subsequently the identification of specific indicators that will be taken to
represent the phenomenon explored (such as political participation, interest
in government, law enforcement, altruism and volunteering, trust in people
and institutions, and the use of the privileges of direct democracy). The
article shows the importance of this project for development of civil society
in Poland and the possibility of change that can be achieved in this way. |
