​This volume presents the outcomes of qualitative research on the meaning of religion in selected CEE regions. In several case studies, we reveal some features of social perception of religion present in verbalized and institutionalized social experiences and practices.

​The book addresses one of the fundamental questions posed in both the social sciences and the humanities, namely the question of identity and the role played by the "Other" in its construction.

Książka towarzyszy wystawie Klinika zabawek zorganizowanej przez Muzeum Zabawek w Krakowie

Projekt „Klinika zabawek #2: Trudne pytania” jest kontynuacją wystawy „Klinika zabawek”, którą Muzeum Zabawek w Krakowie zaaranżowało w poklinicznym budynku w dzielnicy Wesoła.

“For him that stealeth a Book from this Library, let it change into a serpent in his hand and rend him. Let him be struck with Palsy, and all his Members blasted. Let him languish in Pain crying aloud for Mercy and let there be no surcease to his Agony till he sink in Dissolution. Let Bookworms gnaw his Entrails in token of the Worm that dieth not, and when at last he goeth to his final Punishment, let the flames of Hell consume him for ever and aye”
- a Latin inscription at the library of the Monastery of San Pedro in Barcelona warns.
