Slaves of Modernisation. Between Serfdom and Capitalism by Michal Narożniak performed by actors from Kielce

Adapted by Jakub Zalasa, directed by Piotr Pacześniak

In his book, Michał Narożniak describes traditional and modern systems of work, social dialogue or mentality which intermingle to such an extent that it becomes almost impossible to tell one from the other. He supports his discussion with specific examples from 19th-century mining settlements in the Kielce region.

For the author, of crucial importance are the relationships between modernity and traditional social systems – feudalism coexisting with capitalism, serfdom with hired labour, natural economy with monetary economy. In addition, the book does not lack an analysis of people's behaviour, their biological living conditions and the mechanisms of resistance and survival that take shape in them.
