  The current paper, without scientific systematization and artistic meditation, tries to address
  life itself (the normatively understood ‘good life’) in an essayist way. It strives to draw up some
  core pillars of a research program about a commonly known everyday phenomenon, informality,
  more precisely its distorted form which is inducing social inequalities and injustices, and which,
  because of this, should be seen reflexively and critically. The proposed argument is a theoretical
  reflection on József Böröcz’s still actual and progressive scientific endeavor to create a framework
  for the sociology of informality.
