Summary/Abstract: The article presents basic concepts of social policy as well as its contemporary and historical dimensions. The conceptual framework for this area of study is set out in both Polish and foreign publications and is merely the background for deliberation in this text. One of the major ideas of the article is an attempt to expose social policy as an activity evaluating and contrasting its theoretical as well as practical aspects. Such a point of view combined with historical experience and contemporary practices and sciences allows to redefine and correct particular notions.
