The educational and cultural determinants of the tempo and direction of transformation of the
democratic and the normative order in post-totalitarian society are analysed. The author's
analyses presented in this book attempt to answer the following question: How does one pass
from normative order to normative integration? Which properties of the new systemic educational
identity are conductive to the active creation of social normative order in Poland? What is the
religious adaptation to the new state formation? Is it possible in a short time to build in
Poland a new pragmatic and progressive educational system based on the unified school which is
democratic with unified education and the freedom of choice?
