Summary/Abstract: We are living in the postmodern era with its emphasis on individualisation and creating one,s own identity. But the observed tendency to self-realizaton and personal achievement seems to concern mainly the domains of professional life and public activity. In this context, it might be illuminating to observe the attitudes of women who have long ago discarded their feelings of attachment to a single family and homestead, or to one field of activity, but are still active within this sphere at the cost of other occupations. Has there been a change of the situation of women in Polish society? Have Polish women become more active in the public sphere? We try to answer these questions by analysing the results of a survey conducted by the Centre for Research of Public Opinion (CBOS).
