This paper concentrates on the problem of using qualitative research methods when we want to carry out researches in political institutions. It indicates important problems connected with politicians interviewing like for example: ethical dilemma, proper questioning and specific context of relation between researcher and politician. It is also an attempt to present politicians from a different perspective with showing and explaining theirs problems of “proper” social role playing. Examples (quotations and described situations) are taken from interviews with members of Łódzkie local government.
