Abstract

The paper engages in polemics with the conventional understanding of tolerance. First, the significance of the difference between tolerance as an attitude and tolerance as a form of discourse is underlined. Then, with reference to and in part in discussion with the concept of tolerance by Ija Lazari Pawłowska, a differentiation is presented between three varieties of tolerance (negative and positive varieties of tolerance and tolerance as an acceptance of the Other), as well as between three corresponding varieties of intolerance. Also considered are some paradoxes of tolerance and of the fight against intolerance.
