German description: Spannende Zeiten: Die polnische Soziologin Maria Jarosz beschreibt ihr Leben zwischen den Ghettoerfahrungen als Kind und der wissenschaftlichen Karriere, zwischen den Freuden an der Forschung und den Schrecken der Wissenschaftsorganisation im kommunistischen Staat, zwischen Inklusion und Exklusion. Dabei analysiert sie en passant Mechanismen realsozialistischer Lebenswirklichkeit und wirft einen durchaus kritischen Blick auf die Transformationszeit. Die Beschreibung von Ereignissen aus dem personlichen Leben der Autorin (…) – das sind die bisweilen erschutternden, bisweilen paradoxen und lustigen Erinnerungen eines Menschen, der zunachst vor allem um sein Leben gekampft hat und spater um die wissenschaftliche Wahrheit. (Cezary Kosikowski, Panstwo i Prawo) Maria Jarosz (geb. 1931) gehort zu den fuhrenden Vertreterinnen der polnischen Soziologie. Sie ist Professorin am Institut fur Politische Studien der Polnischen Akademie der Wissenschaften sowie Autorin und Herausgeberin zahlreicher Bucher.
