O potrzebie rekapitulacji, rewitalizacji i rekontekstualizacji pojęcia kontroli społecznej
On the necessity of recapitulating, revitalizing and recontextualizing the concept of social control

Summary/Abstract: The reflections presented in this article are theoretical in character and focus on a critical reading of the ideas of social control. The starting point is an analysis of the features of intellectual climate, directing the present approach of sociology toward social control. Some hypotheses regarding the embodiment of the instruments and objects of social control are presented. They serve two purposes. Firstly, they are supposed to inspire critical interpretations of known ideas and further inquiries in the investigated domains. Secondly, they are supposed to stimulate further attempts at formulating a theory focused on the complexity of social control. In conclusion to the presented considerations, we present postulates regarding the recapitulation, revitalization and recontextualization of the assumptions and concepts applied in the theory of social control.
