    Pomiędzy esencjalizmem a konstruktywizmem. Płeć (kulturowa) w refleksji teoretycznej socjologii - przegląd koncepcji
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2012) Leszczyńska, Katarzyna; Dziuban, Agata
    In this paper the authors take up the attempt to identify the main theoretical tracks of gender categories, which were initially present in the classical sociology, and then in the singled out specialized contemporary sociological subdisciplines. In the paper the transformations within the sociological conceptualization of gender arc presented as the peculiar de-essentialisation. The expression of dc-csscntialising of gender can be noticed in the gradual departing from its biological and naturalistic understanding, which is grounded in the classical reflection of sociology, towards the defining gender in the social and cultural categories (gender roles, power relations, interactions) and finally towards general dcconstmction of the all essential concepts of sexual and gender identities.

    Strategie budowania wiarygodności Kościoła rzymskokatolickiego w Polsce w obliczu transformacji kulturowo-politycznej po 1989 roku
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2010) Leszczyńska, Katarzyna
    The aim of my article is to answer to the question about methods of maintaining of credibility of the Roman Catholic church in Poland (understood as an institution). My presentation will be based on the research which included analysis of content of the official and unofficial documents of Roman Catholic Church in Poland (between 2000–2008) concerning the social problems related to the political and economic modernisation in the context of European integration process, especially discussion about European Constitution. In my article I will concentrate on presentation one of the strategy, that is: dichotomisation of the reality on the clearly distinguished »we« and »they«. Peter Berger stressed that in this strategy religious institution perceived new, pluralistic world in the cathegories of the threat religious order.

    Gender in religion? Religion in gender? Commentary on theory and research on gender and religion
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2016) Leszczyńska, Katarzyna; Zielińska, Katarzyna
    In recent years the concept of gender has become one of the key categories used in social sciences and in the field of religious studies and its varied dimensions (see: Avishai, Jafar, Rinaldo 2015; Calef 2009; Joy 2010; Woodhead 2007). According to Morny Joy (2010), as well as Afshan Jafar, Rachel Rinaldo and Orit Avishai (2015), we can point to special features and connotations of the concept of gender in this research. Therefore, gender is often understood in research on religion as a descriptive and historical category. This means that it depicts particular life situations of women (rarely men) in the context of religion, including their religious experiences, religious practices in everyday life and at varied levels of religious order (cultural, individual and institutional ones).1 Gender in this interpretation serves not as an abstract tool of sociological analysis, but as an empirical and very essentialist category (Joy 2010). It implies that the concept of gender describes the fates of a concrete community of religious women (and this community is understood as a homogenous and biological one), rather than patterns of the practices reproducing gender rules regardless of the anatomical sex of the social actors following them.
