  • OSTATNIA WALKA ŻOŁNIERZY II RZECZYPOSPOLITEJ Naród Polski
    Szymon NIEDZIELA OSTATNIA WALKA ŻOŁNIERZY II RZECZYPOSPOLITEJ Naród polski jako pierwszy stanął do walki z III Rzeszą w 1939 r. Tocząc krwawe boje na ojczystej ziemi, ale też w zimnych fiordach Norwegii, na polach Szampanii, na rozżarzonych pustyniach Tobruku, w przestrzeniach angielskiego nieba i w słonecznej choć krwawej Italii wierzyliśmy, że dzięki tej ofierze wrócimy na ojczyzny miłej łono. Historia zrządziła jednak inaczej. Zamiast jutrzenki swobody ujrzeliśmy półmrok koncesjonowanej przez Kreml niby-suwerenności. Gorzki smak zwycięstwa To nie żołnierska krew tak ofiarnie wylewana na frontach II wojny świa- towej, ale traktaty i konferencje międzynarodowe, w czasie których inkaustem z żył naszych kreślono granice Europy, zadecydowały o przyszłości narodu walczącego za wolność waszą i naszą. Polska ciągle wierzyła, że mocarstwa zrozumieją, iż niezbędny jest silny podmiot geopolityczny między Niemcami a Związkiem Sowieckim. Przecież oddanie w ręce Stalina połowy Europy, to wzmocnienie państwa będącego śmiertelnym zagrożeniem dla cywilizacji euro- pejskiej. Niestety po raz kolejny odpłacono nam kielichem goryczy. W 807 Napoleon – nadzieja i wspomożenie milionów Polaków – zdradził nas w Tylży osiągając porozumienie z carem Aleksandrem I. Polsce wykroił zaledwie Księ- stwo Warszawskie bez perspektywy powrotu do granic sprzed 772 r. W XX wieku sytuacja się powtórzyła. Werbalni przyjaciele Roose�elt i Churchill odda- li nas w ręce sowieckie w czasie konferencji w Teheranie 28 XI– XII 94 r. Przypieczętowane to zostało umową jałtańską (4–11 II 945) i poczdamską (7 VII–2 VIII 945). Warto nakreślić paralelę historyczną. Po pierwszej woj- nie światowej (94-98) gdy możni ówczesnego świata: Woodrow Wilson, Lloyd George, George Clemenceau i Vittorio Orlando debatowali na temat przyszłych granic w czasie konferencji paryskiej (99–920) głos zabierali również przedstawiciele polscy: Roman Dmowski, Ignacy Jan Paderewski oraz prof.

  • Protegowani Jakuba Bermana Jako Przykład Klientelizmu I Nepotyzmu W Elicie Władzy PRL
    VARIAIII MIROSŁAW SZUMIŁO Uniwersytet Marii Curie-Skłodowskiej w Lublinie Biuro Badań Historycznych Instytutu Pamięci Narodowej Protegowani Jakuba Bermana jako przykład klientelizmu i nepotyzmu w elicie władzy PRL Zjawisko klientelizmu w perspektywie historycznej było już przedmiotem wielu prac naukowych. W Polsce zajmował się nim przede wszystkim Antoni Mączak1. Wzbudzało ono również zainteresowanie zachodnich sowietologów, którzy zauważyli, że niemal od początku rządów bolszewickich w Związku Sowieckim następowało grupowanie kadr wokół wpływowych towarzyszy2. Analizie poddawano m.in. układy klientelistyczne w ekipie Leonida Breżniewa3. Według Johna Willertona klientelizm oznacza wzajemne popieranie własnych interesów w zakresie uczestnictwa w elicie władzy, interesów frak- cyjnych i sektorowych oraz wspieranie się w trakcie kariery w związku ze wspólnym pochodzeniem etnicznym, pokoleniowym itp.4 Tworzenie się sieci klientelistycznych oraz nepotyzm w elicie władzy PRL nie były do tej pory przedmiotem odrębnych badań. W ujęciu socjologicznym poru- szał to zagadnienie Krzysztof Dąbek, ale tylko w kontekście funkcjonowania ukła- dów patron–klient w aparacie partyjnym w latach 1956–19805. W odniesieniu do kadry kierowniczej Służby Bezpieczeństwa tego typu dysfunkcje analizował Daniel 1 A. Mączak, Nierówna przyjaźń. Układy klientalne w perspektywie historycznej, Wrocław 2003. 2 T.H.

  • "Witold Pilecki. Confronting the Legend of the "Volunteer to Auschwitz""
    Ewa Cuber-Strutyńska Witold Pilecki. Confronting the legend of the “volunteer to Auschwitz” Death had many opportunities to prematurely end the life of Witold Pilecki, who participated in the ight for independence during the war against the Bolsheviks and fought in World War II. Despite the risk he took, he managed to avoid death when he was at the front, when he found himself in the Auschwitz concentration camp and when he took part in the Warsaw Uprising. That it reached him in seemingly independent Poland and that it happened owing to, among others, his old brothers in arms should be considered a tragic paradox. Pilecki became a victim of the Communist regime, which brought death to him twice. The irst death, with a bullet in the back of his head, came on 25 May 1948; the second, symbolic one, involved killing the memory of Pilecki by censoring it for several dozen years. The memory of Pilecki was liberated and he was rehabilitated only after the fall of the regime that had brought death upon him. In the 1990s, we witnessed the publication of the irst biographies of Pilecki, which led to his return to the history of Poland and placed him in the pantheon of Poles who served their homeland to the greatest extent. Moreover, the past several years have shown a growing interest in Pilecki. His igure is now popularised by not only academic publications (which after all reach a rather small audience) but also various kinds of activities undertaken by state institutions, non-governmental organisations as well as football club fans.1 Among the increasing number of initiatives intended to honour Pilecki was even the idea to make an attempt at his beatiication.2 1 During a match between Śląsk Wrocław and Jagiellonia Białystok that took place on 3 May 2012, the supporters of Śląsk Wrocław prepared a setting including Pilecki’s portrait with a caption “Volunteer to Auschwitz” and the quote “Because compared with them Auschwitz was just a trile”.

No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. INTRODUCTION “We were taught as children”—I was told by a seventy- year-old Pole—“that we Poles never harmed anyone. A partial abandonment of this morally comfortable position is very, very difficult for me.” —Helga Hirsch, a German journalist, in Polityka, 24 February 2001 HE COMPLEX and often acrimonious debate about the charac- ter and significance of the massacre of the Jewish population of T the small Polish town of Jedwabne in the summer of 1941—a debate provoked by the publication of Jan Gross’s Sa˛siedzi: Historia za- głady z˙ydowskiego miasteczka (Sejny, 2000) and its English translation Neighbors: The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland (Princeton, 2001)—is part of a much wider argument about the totali- tarian experience of Europe in the twentieth century. This controversy reflects the growing preoccupation with the issue of collective memory, which Henri Rousso has characterized as a central “value” reflecting the spirit of our time.1 One key element in the understanding of collec- tive memory is the “dark past” of nations—those aspects of the na- tional past that provoke shame, guilt, and regret; this past needs to be integrated into the national collective identity, which itself is continu- ally being reformulated.2 In this sense, memory has to be understood as a public discourse that helps to build group identity and is inevita- bly entangled in a relationship of mutual dependence with other iden- tity-building processes.

  • Story of Jan Karski the EMISSARY
    THE EMISSARY Maciej Kozłowski THE EMISSARY Story of Jan Karski English translation Joanna Maria Kwiatowska Foreword Jan Karski was a messenger. During the Second World War, he risked his life infiltrating the Warsaw Ghetto and crossing occupied Europe to carry news of the Holocaust to the free world; news of such suffering and atrocity that many refused to believe it. He was also a messenger throughout his 50 years as an American, bringing to us messages about freedom based on his experience in wartime Poland; messages that he delivered to generations of students seeking to understand the world of international affairs. Jan Karski was brave; he was resolute; and he demanded of us what he demanded of himself: that we face with clarity the existence of injustice and evil in the world and act with courage to defeat them. Above all, his message was that freedom must be defended. His personal courage and commitment gave weight to his convictions, and his understanding of the world gave depth to the personal history he embodied. Those who knew Jan Karski will never forget him; and his message will continue to light the path of freedom-loving peoples throughout the years to come. No one could ask for a finer legacy.
