Stosunki przemysł — ośrodki władzy lokalnej w świadomości społecznej

Abstract

The present article is a study bordering on the sociology of industry, political relations and general knowledge. It contains the reflections resulting from the empirical research conducted in the industrial region of Konin. They refer to the concept of the industrial enterpreneur of J. Szczepański. In the first part of the study, the authors characterize the state and types of the cooperation within industry and between it and a local community. The second part portrays the reflection of that cooperation in the consciousness of the workers, enterprise mandatories, as well as the electedy and political local mandatories and administrators of the local public interest. The article generally answers the query: to what extent the consciousness reflection of the enterpreneur in the end of the seventies was reflecting the existing practice of the relations industry—local community. The article provides numerous premises for the further theoretical elaborations and empirical research, indicating both at shortcomings and positive sides of the discussed cooperation, its realistic and deformatory handling It has thus became a step on the road to describe the applicability of the theoretical concept of the ,,industrial enterpreneur" in the practice of empirical sociological research.
