History Education Reform in Post-Communist Poland, 1989-1999: Historical and Contemporary Effects on Educational Transition HISTORY EDUCATION REFORM IN POST-COMMUNIST POLAND, 1989-1999: HISTORICAL AND CONTEMPORARY EFFECTS ON EDUCATIONAL TRANSITION DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Christine S. Parker, M.A. ******* The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Antoinette Errante, Adviser Robert Lawson Adviser College of Education Steven Miller Department of Educational Policy & Leadership Copyright by Christine S. Parker 2003 ABSTRACT This dissertation will describe and analyze how state officials, educators, publishers, and historians in Poland have addressed the task of reforming its national curriculum standards and supporting textbooks in the period of transition from the end of Communist rule in 1989 to the introduction of a new system of education in 1999. The goals of this study are to determine (1) the sources of transitional curriculum policies in history education and the role of reform actors in Poland since 1989; (2) why the history education curriculum reforms changed as they did between the creation of proposals and the eventual codification of the reform into law; (3) the influences on the reform of history textbooks during the transitional period; (4) the differences between anticipated goals and actual outcomes of the curricular and textbook reforms, and (5) how to account for those changes in light of the greater scope of the historical development of democratic education in Poland. This grounded study is based on multiple data sources, including documentary evidence, professional journals, and personal interviews with individuals participating in the reform of the history curriculum. The reader is presented with a historical summary of educational development of Poland since the 16th century, as well as with descriptions of history textbook reform and the process involved in rewriting the national standards for history. Textbook reform was influenced mainly by economic factors, which affected both the speed and direction of the reform. Curriculum reform was heavily influenced by both the historical inheritance of Communism and of pre-Communist educational development, as well as by the contradictory context of transition itself. The study concludes that the reform of history education in Poland during the transitional ii period 1989-1999 is best understood through the application of institutional frameworks which offer the most explanatory power for the events that transpired. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Yikes.

  • To the Eighteenth Century
    Kazimierz Baran Jagiellonian University, Cracow The Constitutional Uniąueness of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, from the Sixteenth to the Eighteenth Century The aim of this text is to provide a brief survey of a series of constitutional features that were characteristic of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (often referred to as Respublica or, in Polish, Rzeczpospolita), a unique organism „which once - to use the words of Norman Davies - roamed the plains of Eastern Europę”1. Although the Republic of the nobles survived until the end of the eighteenth century, the consolidation of its specific constitutional characteristics had taken place between the mid-fifteenth and the end of the sixteenth century. At that time Poland, already united with Lithuania first by personal and later by constitutional union, madę up one of the largest political organisms in Europę2. Within its boundaries there was much of what is present day Ukrainę, Byelorussia, Lithuania, Latvia etc. From the ethnic point of view the Commonwealths territory varied considerably. Apart from the Poles and Lithuanians it was possible to distinguish among its inhabitants the Eastern Slavs, at that time referred to as the Ruthenes (in fact the eastern part basi- cally spoke Ruthenian), Latvians, a considerable proportion of Jews, but also the rep- resentatives of smaller minorities like Armenians, Tatars or even Scots. Among the Ruthenians and Lithuanians the upper strata were easily polonized. Generally speak- ing, across the entire Commonwealth, the upper strata amounted to a considerable 1 Norman Davies, God’s Playground, A History of Poland, Oxford 1981, vol. I, 371.

  • 59 Concepts of Moral Education in Poland Stefan Konstańczak
    Ethics & Bioethics (in Central Europe), 2016, 6 (1–2), 59–68 DOI:10.1515/ebce-2016-0009 Concepts of moral education in Poland Stefan Konstańczak Abstract In this article the author presents the contemporary understanding of the subject of moral education. Furthermore, he presents the historical development of the concept of moral education in Poland. He concludes that the current model of moral education in Poland was developed as early as the 18th century. Keywords: moral upbringing, moral education, history of moral education in Poland, concepts of moral education in Poland. Introduction Education is a specific sphere of human life. It cannot be limited only to the dimension of the individual as his being is a teacher-pupil relationship. The transfer of values from the teacher to the pupil is of particular importance since the teacher becomes a spokesman for society and equips others with knowledge and skills which are necessary for the pupil to become a useful member of a particular community. This process takes place on many levels including moral, aesthetic, health, physical, civil, and sexual (Zarzecki, 2012, p. 113).1 However, for society, moral education is of paramount importance because outside the intellectual sphere, the spheres of volition and emotion are shaped in the young generation. The term “moral education” is not universally accepted in Polish pedagogical and philosophical literature. Parallel terms like “ethical education” and “value-based education” (Łobocki, 2006, pp. 11–12) exist with identical meanings. This emphasizes that, in principle, every educational process is related to moral education because during its course the pupil is both taught and drilled to observe the norms and values in a given society.

  • Mobilization Chains Under Communist Rule — Comparing Regime Transitions in China and Poland
    ASIEN 138 (Januar 2016), S. 126–148 Mobilization Chains under Communist Rule — Comparing Regime Transitions in China and Poland Ewelina Karas Summary This paper examines the impact of societal mobilization on regime transitions from Communism in China (between 1949 and 1989) and Poland (between 1945 and 1989) respectively. One of the main theoretical arguments put forward by this article is that of a dynamic model of dialectical interactions between a mobilizing society and a nondemocratic regime. I argue that China and Poland share a unique political culture in the form of a mobilizing society that is able to generate meaningful resistance even under highly repressive conditions. The second puzzle addressed in this paper is why, given their similar domestic environments, the Polish regime collapsed in 1989 whereas the one in China — despite facing intense mobilization in the same year — was able to survive. These differences in transition outcomes will be explained by a number of independent variables: different modes of regime establishment (authentic revolutionary in China versus imposed in Poland), elite and opposition attitudes to democracy, regime cross-case learning, economic development, and the role of the religion. Keywords: Regime transitions, societal challenge, post-Communism in Eastern Europe and China, social movements, authoritarianism Ewelina Karas is a Ph.D. student at the City University of Hong Kong. Mobilization Chains under Communist Rule 127 Introduction China and Poland once shared a common communist regime type, and furthermore have both faced repeated mass protests: in 1956, 1968, 1970, 1976, 1980, and 1988/89 in Poland (Kamiński 2009), and in 1976, 1978–79, 1986–87, and 1989 in China (Baum 1994, Goldman 2001, 2005;).

  • Nihil Novi #3
    The Kos’ciuszko Chair of Polish Studies Miller Center of Public Affairs University of Virginia Charlottesville, Virginia Bulletin Number Three Fall 2003 On the Cover: The symbol of the KoÊciuszko Squadron was designed by Lt. Elliot Chess, one of a group of Americans who helped the fledgling Polish air force defend its skies from Bolshevik invaders in 1919 and 1920. Inspired by the example of Tadeusz KoÊciuszko, who had fought for American independence, the American volunteers named their unit after the Polish and American hero. The logo shows thirteen stars and stripes for the original Thirteen Colonies, over which is KoÊciuszko’s four-cornered cap and two crossed scythes, symbolizing the peasant volunteers who, led by KoÊciuszko, fought for Polish freedom in 1794. After the Polish-Bolshevik war ended with Poland’s victory, the symbol was adopted by the Polish 111th KoÊciuszko Squadron. In September 1939, this squadron was among the first to defend Warsaw against Nazi bombers. Following the Polish defeat, the squadron was reformed in Britain in 1940 as Royal Air Force’s 303rd KoÊciuszko. This Polish unit became the highest scoring RAF squadron in the Battle of Britain, often defending London itself from Nazi raiders. The 303rd bore this logo throughout the war, becoming one of the most famous and successful squadrons in the Second World War. The title of our bulletin, Nihil Novi, invokes Poland’s ancient constitution of 1505. It declared that there would be “nothing new about us without our consent.” In essence, it drew on the popular sentiment that its American version expressed as “no taxation without representation.” The Nihil Novi constitution guar- anteed that “nothing new” would be enacted in the country without the consent of the Parliament (Sejm).
