TY - JOUR TI - FROM THE HISTORY OF CRACOW SOCIAL MARGINS: DRUNKENNESS, BELLIGERENCE AND VANDALISM IN CRACOW 1918–1939 AU - Kloc, Krzysztof TI - FROM THE HISTORY OF CRACOW SOCIAL MARGINS: DRUNKENNESS, BELLIGERENCE AND VANDALISM IN CRACOW 1918–1939 AB - The article touches upon an important social issue of the pre-war Cracow – alcoholism. The problem is discussed in a wider context together with the consequences manifesting themselves in the public space. These, in turn, had in many aspects far-reaching effects not only in the form of petty crime – theft, scuffles, brawls – but also as the sometimes irreversible social marginalization. Moreover, the paper describes the police and administration’s attempts to fight the drunkenness and its consequences.  VL - 2014 IS - Issue 141 (3) PY - 2015 SN - 0083-4351 C1 - 2084-4069 SP - 701 EP - 718 DO - 10.4467/20844069PH.14.034.2762 UR - https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/prace-historyczne/article/z-dziejow-krakowskiego-marginesu-spolecznego-pijanstwo-awanturnictwo-i-wandalizm-w-krakowie-1918-1939 KW - alcoholism KW - vandalism KW - social marginality KW - police KW - Cracow KW - interwar period KW - crime KW - alcohol
