  • February 21, 1948 Report of the Special Action of the Polish Socialist Party in Prague, 21-25 February 1948
    Digital Archive digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org International History Declassified February 21, 1948 Report of the Special Action of the Polish Socialist Party in Prague, 21-25 February 1948 Citation: “Report of the Special Action of the Polish Socialist Party in Prague, 21-25 February 1948,” February 21, 1948, History and Public Policy Program Digital Archive, Archive of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Warsaw), file 217, packet 16, pp. 1-11. Translated by Anna Elliot-Zielinska. http://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org/document/117117 Summary: In the midst of a cabinet crisis in Czechoslovakia that would lead to the February Communist coup, several delegates from the Polish Socialist Party were sent to Prague to spread socialist influence. The crisis is outlined, as well as a thorough report of the conference in Prague. Credits: This document was made possible with support from the Leon Levy Foundation. Original Language: Polish Contents: English Translation In accordance with the resolution of the Political Commission and General Secretariat of the Central Executive Committee (CKW) of the Polish Socialist Party (PPS), made late on the night of 20 February 1948, Com. Kazimierz Rusinek, Adam Rapacki, Henryk Jablonski, and Stefan Arski were delegated to go to Prague. This decision was made after a thorough analysis of the political situation in Czechoslovakia brought on by a cabinet crisis there. The goal of the delegation was to inform the Central Committee of the Czechoslovak Social Democratic Party (SD) about the basic stance of the PPS and possibly to influence the SD Central Committee in the spirit of leftist-socialist and revolutionary politics. The motive behind the decision of the Political Commission and General Secretariat was the fear that, from the leftist socialist point of view, the situation at the heart of SD after the Brno Congress was taking an unfavorable shape.

  • The Rapacki Plan During the Cold War
    ONLINE PUBLICATION NOVEMBER 2010 Maruzsa Zoltán Denuclearization in Central Europe? The Rapacki Plan during the Cold War. Document first published in print: Öt kontinens. Eötvös Loránd Tudományegyetem, Budapest, 2008 225-264. pp. 1 Zoltán Maruzsa: Denuclearization in Central Europe? The Rapacki Plan during the Cold War As the Cold War started after the Second World War, Europe quickly became its most important political battleground for many years. The majority of European countries became members of a belligerent alliance system, and most countries raised their defence budgets considerably. There was a rising menace of war between these groups, lead by the USA and the USSR, as humanity entered the atomic age in August 1945. After the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki nobody could realistically believe that nuclear weapons would not be used in the event of a Third World War. This became obvious when the USA lost its monopoly on nuclear weaponry, following successful English and Soviet test detonations. Many public figures, including leading scientists, politicians, and artists soon began to voice their concerns, and various plans were hastily developed to circumvent such a catastrophe. If we examine it superficially, the plan proposed by Polish Foreign Minister Adam Rapacki on October 2nd, 1957 fits into these ideas. During the 12th term of the United Nations General Assembly, the Polish Foreign Affairs Minister suggested1 that creating a ‗nuclear-free‘ zone in Central Europe would go a long way to alleviating the political tension of the times. According to his proposal, if the two German states were willing to prohibit the production and storage of nuclear weapons on their territory, the Polish People's Republic would follow suit.

  • Kubiak Poland and The
    Poland and the B61 Theory-led Analysis of the Polish Official Position on American Extended Nuclear Deterrence in Europe Universität Hamburg Fakultät für Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaften Dissertation Zur Erlangung der Würde der Doktorin der Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaften „Dr. phil.“ (gemäß der PromO vom 08.11.2000) vorgelegt von Katarzyna Anna Kubiak Hamburg, 31. Januar 2018 Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Michael Brzoska Zweitgutachter: Prof. Dr. Michael Staack Datum der Disputation: 19. Mai 2016 To Romcia Abstract The United States continues to deploy nuclear bombs (B61) to Europe. By doing so, Washington extends its nuclear deterrence to its European NATO allies. In-between 2008-2014, NATO discussed whether it should keep or withdraw these weapons from Europe. The weapons were subject to controversy. Perceived as unnecessary remnants of the Cold War arms race by some, and as a vital part of NATO deterrence and defence strategy by others. Eventually, allies decided to leave the nuclear bombs in Europe. This work analyses the motivation behind the Polish governments’ support for American extended nuclear deterrence in Europe. It aims at finding out (1) what role the B61 plays for a European NATO non- nuclear weapon state, which does not host these bombs on its territory and (2) what motivation stands behind framing it that way. I structure my argument along three main paradigms of international relations - neorealism, utilitarian liberalism and social constructivism. I examine official and expert writings as well as 25 expert interviews I have conducted with Polish diplomats, politicians, researchers, former high officials, employees at the NATO International Staff and representatives of NATO member states governments.

  • Journalists and Religious Activists in Polish-German Relations
    THE PROJECT OF RECONCILIATION: JOURNALISTS AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVISTS IN POLISH-GERMAN RELATIONS, 1956-1972 Annika Frieberg A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: Dr. Konrad H. Jarausch Dr. Christopher Browning Dr. Chad Bryant Dr. Karen Hagemann Dr. Madeline Levine ©2008 Annika Frieberg ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT ANNIKA FRIEBERG: The Project of Reconciliation: Journalists and Religious Activists in Polish-German Relations, 1956-1972 (under the direction of Konrad Jarausch) My dissertation, “The Project of Reconciliation,” analyzes the impact of a transnational network of journalists, intellectuals, and publishers on the postwar process of reconciliation between Germans and Poles. In their foreign relations work, these non-state actors preceded the Polish-West German political relations that were established in 1970. The dissertation has a twofold focus on private contacts between these activists, and on public discourse through radio, television and print media, primarily its effects on political and social change between the peoples. My sources include the activists’ private correspondences, interviews, and memoirs as well as radio and television manuscripts, articles and business correspondences. Earlier research on Polish-German relations is generally situated firmly in a nation-state framework in which the West German, East German or Polish context takes precedent. My work utilizes international relations theory and comparative reconciliation research to explore the long-term and short-term consequences of the discourse and the concrete measures which were taken during the 1960s to end official deadlock and nationalist antagonisms and to overcome the destructive memories of the Second World War dividing Poles and Germans.
