Adam Podgórecki  

Definition

  • Adam Podgórecki was a pioneer of Polish sociology of law after World War II. He received a doctorate in law and a master's degree in sociology at Jagiellonion University in Krakow. Inspired by Leon Petrażycki's (1867–1931) ideas on law and society and Maria Ossowska's (1896–1974) pioneering work in the sociology of morality, he was not a simple follower but creative and critical in testing and applying Petrażycki's concepts.
