dc.description.abstract | The article attempts at presentation of the sociological characteristics of an informal group based on a different concept of understanding groups of that type. The first part of the work presents a general theoretical outline of the social group and is intended to prepare a reader to detailed discussion of the informal group. The second part contains the author's proposition of understanding the notion of "informal group". He maintains that informal groups functioning e.g. in the workplace have to be treated as a common type of a social group which relation to the formal structure and formal organisation requirements becomes a trait facilitating the location of that social group in reality of the defined organisation and not a trait of the exceptional or pejorative character. Not all groups — in the author's opinion — constituted beyond the structure or formal organisation of the workplace become informal groups, for the character of that informality is decisive. Groups constituted beyond the structure or formal organisation can be divided in the following way: 1) non formalized groups — these are sets of persons acting on a base of rules which were formalised by noone, as there was no need of formalizing of all spheres of reality in the given organisation e.g. the workplace. These groups are in no relation to formal provisions. They are not to be considered as a counterproposal to other formal group as there are neither rules nor formal groups related to their activities. Their character is not linked with formal organisation and its material goals, remaining directly indifferent to it. The example of non formalized group is a set of persons of common interests of the hobby type meeting in the recreation room or in the workplace cafeteria during intervals. 2) informal groups are the ones not provided by the organisation and remaining in a defined relation which is substantial for the formal organisation. In its activity they break or omit requirements of the formal organisation. They form a sort of "opposition" to the formally existing groups constitutiong the so-called real organisation of the workplace. Their activity has an immediate effect on material tasks and goals of the organisation, it can facilitate, hinder or bar their realisation. In further remarks the author characterises the informal group taking the following criteria under consideration: stability of a group, number of members, goals, rules of meimbers' recruitement, structure and leadership, character of membership, etc. The article is concluded with the discussion utilising the typology of social groups by L. R. Sayels to define differences between informal circles and informal groups. | pl_PL |
