  • LIBERATING a CONTINENT Study Guide V Introduction V
    LIBERATING A CONTINENT Study Guide v Introduction v Imagine this: You are given two maps of Europe — one made in 1695, the other in 1795. Someone asks you to point out the location of Poland. You easily find it on the first map, yet when looking at the second, you are stumped. You know where it should be, but in its place you find only the bordering nations of Russia, Prussia and Austria. Poland had disappeared. Between 1795 and 1920, independent Poland was essentially nonexistent. Polish uprisings against the ruling powers were again and again defeated, leading to persecution, harsh living conditions and strict controls. The Polish language was forbidden for public communication, and education about Polish history and culture was severely restricted. By the end of World War I, however, the Poles saw decisive victories, with war treaties partially restoring their land. And two years later, during the Battle of Warsaw, the outnumbered Polish forces pushed back the Red Army. This Polish victory, which became known as the Miracle on the Vistula, was astounding, essentially preventing Soviet expansion into Western Europe. It was in 1920, during these years of independence, that Karol Wojtyła was born in Wadowice. Unfortunately, this period of independence was short-lived — within two decades, the Nazis invaded Poland, beginning a regime of unimaginable horror. An invasion of Soviet Union forces followed only weeks later. Forcing many Poles to serve in their labor camps, the Soviets killed hundreds of thousands and secretly executed approximately 22,000 Polish officers during the Katyn Forest massacre. The war left Poland crippled.

  • Kadrówka March 2014
    Kadrówka March 2014 2014-07-23 A hundred years ago, on August 6th 1914, by orders of Marshal Józef Piłsudski, the First Cadre Company (Kadrówka) departed for combat from Oleandry in Krakow. The soldiers departed at daybreak and at 9:45 a.m. brought down the border poles of the partitioning states in Michałowice. Having liberated Słomniki, Miechów, Jędrzejów and Chęcin, they reached Kielce on August 12th. Kadrówka was the first regular formation of the Polish armed forces created after the January uprising. It was later to develop into the Polish Legions whose armed effort during WWI contributed to the Polish struggle for independence finally regained in 1918. In 1924, to commemorate the campaign of the First Cadre Company, the former legionnaires initiated a march retracing Kadrówka's route. The march was held regularly until 1939 and was the largest event of its kind in Poland. The participants included young members of the Rifle Association and soldiers of the Polish Armed Forces. The idea of holding the march was re-explored during the memorable August of 1981 among independence activists in the regions of Małopolska and Świętokrzyskie. At that time, the march was a patriotic demonstration, strongly opposed by the communist government. After 1989, the pre-war formula of the march was re-introduced. The sporting event with a military background lasts from August 6th to 12th. The participants depart from Krakow and continue trough Michałowice, Słomniki, Miechów, Wodzisaław, Jędzrzejów, Chojny nad Nidą, Chęciny, Szewce to Kielce. They get the opportunity to personally meet those who fought for Polish independence, participate in orienteering and shooting competitions as well as cultural and educational events and contests focusing on Marshall Piłsudzki and the Legions.

  • Central Europe
    Central Europe WEST GERMANY Foreign Policy and Reunification HE DEADLOCK over reunification remained complete. Moscow repeated in T numerous notes and through its East German satellites that the East and West German governments should get together and form a confederation, with which a peace treaty might later be concluded. Soviet Deputy Premier Anastas Mikoyan visited Bonn in April 1958 to sign a trade agreement, but had nothing new to offer. The Bonn government, for its part, insisted on free elections for an all-German government and rejected anything implying rec- ogition of the East German regime. Chancellor Konrad Adenauer also severed relations with Yugoslavia in October 1957 when the latter recognized the "Ger- man Democratic Republic." For the time being, the question of reunification was overshadowed by the controversy over atomic arms for the West German army and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) forces stationed on German soil. George Kennan's suggestion of a disengagement of the great powers from Germany, in his BBC lectures in the autumn of 1957, and Polish Foreign Minister Adam Rapacki's proposal for an atom-free zone in Europe were welcomed by a large part of public opinion as a basis for further discussion. But Chancellor Adenauer rejected the Rapacki plan unconditionally in January 1958. In March 1958 the Bundestag, after a tumultuous debate, em- powered the government to equip the Bundeswehr with tactical atomic weapons. Domestic Political Affairs After his victory in the Bundestag elections of September 1957 (see AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK, 1957 [Vol. 58], p. 288), Chancellor Adenauer made some minor changes in his cabinet, so that it consisted of fourteen mem- bers of his Christian Democratic Union (CDU-CSU) and two of the small right-wing German Party (DP).

Polen war das erste Opfer der deutschen Aggression und hat als erstes Land unter großen Opfern zuerst bewaffneten Widerstand geleistet und später in den Jahren 1939–1945 beispiellose Personen-, Kultur- und Materialver- luste erlitten. Der deutsche Überfall auf Polen im September 1939, die Einstel- lung und die Verbrechen gegenüber Polen waren eine Form von Ausführung des antislawischen Rassismus. Die neueren Forschungen, insbesondere die, die seit den neunziger Jahren geführt wurden, offenbaren die tatsächliche Größe der ver- brecherischen Politik gegenüber den slawischen Völkern. Sie zeigen, wie sich der deutsche Nationalismus zum Rassismus entwickelt hat, das Ziel verfolgend die slawische Bevölkerung durch die nationalsozialistische Germanisierungspolitik aus ihrer Heimat zu vertreiben und sie durch die „höhere arische Rasse“ zu be- siedeln1. Diese Maßnahmen der Besatzung wurden in den schon vor dem Krieg ausgearbeiteten Generalplan Ost aufgenommen, in ein großangelegtes Kolonisie- rungs- und Germanisierungsprojekt der Gebiete in Ostmitteleuropa und in Ost- europa, das mit der Aussiedlung beziehungsweise mit der Eliminierung der hier niedergelassenen slawischen Bevölkerung verbunden war2.
