Editorial This English-language issue of The Sociological Review contains a selection of texts originally written in Polish and published in our journal in 2009. The selection has not been made at random. Two texts refer to Jan Lutyński’s concept of apparent actions (cf. The Sociological Review 1/2009). M. Czyżewski develops the concept further, indicating its applicability in the contemporary social life. The analyzed field is the university and public debates. A. Golczyńska-Grondas and A. Kretek-Kamińska apply the idea of apparent actions to the functioning of social services. Another matter of interest is the status of higher education in Poland. The problem is interesting to researchers as well as to the entire milieu of scientists and politicians. Articles by M. Czyżewski, K. Karczmarczuk and A. Boczkowski represent the trend of self-analysis of the situation of universities in the period when decisions are made as to the future of higher education. The article on the relations between the state and ethnic groups of Chile has a different and exceptional character, as it discusses the methods of dealing with a multicultural society.
