This article establishes how ordinary people understand classical categories of political thought. By interpreting qualitative data, we show how contemporary Polish society conceives such fundamental concepts of political philosophy as 'the individual,' 'society,' and 'the state.' Finally, we point out the implications of our findings for political science and political sociology, especially in regard to popular political culture. (original abstract)
