Wydział Nauk Społecznych. Instytut Socjologii}, language={pol}, language={eng}, abstract={Successive generations have been raised and socialized to procreate in a spirit of pronatalism. Fora vast majority of society members, parenthood is “taken for granted”. Anti-natalists argue with pronatalists, claiming that people should give up procreation as it is morally wrong. In their view, lifeis a string of suffering that is difficult to make sense of, while self-consciousness is a curse. A manemerges from non-being and quickly returns there. The return is often accompanied by mortal terror,which is the apogee of tragedy. Anti-natalists stress that due to the hegemony of the colossal population of homo sapiens sapiens, an unprecedented annihilation of the biosphere is taking place. Radicaladherents of this philosophy claim that the voluntary extinction of our species would be the bestsolution to human problems and a chance for the entire planet to return to its balance. This position,so contrary to the cultural mainstream, is usually ignored, stigmatized, excluded, and tabooed.}, title={Pro- i antynatalizm.
