Abstract

This article tried to present knowledge about the political and social determinants of citizen subjectivity in civil society in contemporary Poland which fully confirmed the main thesis, it is the fact that the new paradigm of human rights sources in the 21st century has become a lack of respect for the dignity of the individual and at the same time its self-limitation. The new paradigm of human rights sources in the 21st century was the result of a completely different approach to the genesis, development and evolution of human rights that resulted from the individual's discovery of her freedom. Meanwhile, the new model, supplemented by the doctrine of power in the neoliberal state, led to a tragic impact on the subjectivity of the citizen in civil society in contemporary Poland. This model assumes, among others, very high wages for employers, astronomical profits of listed companies and behavior of enterprises, which often through lobbying pressure and often the dismissal of employees achieved their economic success by maximizing profits, violating the basic right, which is the dignity and subjectivity of the individual, which led to opposition employees against the greed of the new economy.
