  • 1 Janusz Gmitruk Head of the Museum of the Polish Peasant
    Janusz Gmitruk Head of the Museum of the Polish Peasant Movement in Warsaw VILLAGES AND PEASANTRY IN THE POLISH UNDERGROUND STATE September 1939 marked the beginning of the most tragic and difficult period for the Polish people – a fight for survival not only in the national and cultural sense, but also in biological terms. This struggle began the moment the occupation began. Initially uncoordinated and spontaneous, it claimed many victims. The economic exploitation, which was on its own unprecedented in the history of the country, was accompanied by intensifying efforts to exterminate the Polish population, which were dangerous from the biological perspective. All aspects of life in the occupied state were subordinated to the exigent plans of the Third Reich. This applied both to the economy and labour force. The local peasantry supported Polish independence and stood against the occupier, especially with regard to the policy of denationalising Poles, destroying their culture and the physical ruination of the Polish people. Rural areas had to shoulder the burden of providing food for Polish society, as well as securing its survival and fighting for independence. Villages were a bastion of patriotism, social solidarity and self-help, where cultural assets were protected from being looted by the occupier. Villages constituted a unique example of how the Underground State and society could work together. Polish villages produced and were in possession of food, rendering it possible for members of the intelligentsia, POWs, captives, Jews, deportees and those members of the underground whose cover was blown to survive in the biological sense. The peasantry’s defiance and resistance against the laws imposed by the occupier were an example of civic attitudes, self-sacrifice and responsibility for others to follow.

The four Eastern Inspectorates were incorporated into the newly created Sub-Region, namely: Rzeszów, Przemyśl, Jasło and Mielec, and in each of them were created on the basis of pre-war communes. On the basis of the statutes approved by the Commander-in-Chief, the Military Special Courts (WSS) were started to be established in 1941 within the military division, and the Civil Special Courts (CSS) within the civil division were created a year later. The first sentences concerning the Rzeszów area were passed in that court as early as in 1941. Actions involving the execution of death penalties continue to raise a host of emotions and controversies. special squads (the so-called hit squads) were appointed as execution bodies of WSS by relevant commands of ZWZ/AK to be used to carry out execution sentences. As regards execution sentences, CSS hit squads were established by the Government Delegation for Poland (Delegatura Rządu na Kraj). It is worth noting that in the period from January 1941 to June 1944, the Home Army soldiers carried out executions of the total of 5,733 officers of the German Police, Military Police, and the SS.

  • Chapter 8. the Aftermath of Nazism: Antisemitic Ideology in Postwar Poland
    Chapter 8. The Aftermath of Nazism: Antisemitic Ideology in Postwar Poland 8.1. Antisemitism During the Holocaust Until recently in Polish historiography, there dominated the attitude to discuss the consequences of the Second World War and occupation of Poland in sepa- ration from the tendencies in Polish politics and society of the interwar period. This is particularly striking in the works on the Holocaust, which lack in-depth analysis of Poles” attitudes toward the Jews. Without such analysis, we cannot understand many events and, from time to time, the public opinion shockingly discovers the proverbial skeleton in the closet, as happened after the dissemination of the Jedwabne pogrom.531 There were many pro-Nazi sympathizers in Poland in the 1930s that we could absolve with the words “they did not know what they were doing,” but it is difficult to apply this to the initiators of pogroms or ter- rorist attacks. One of the marginal fascist groups, the Radical Healing Movement, wrote: “We will not beat or maltreat by the Jews because it will not lead to any- thing. We do not hate the Jews because one may only hate the equal or stronger. We abhor the Jews as we abhor rats and vermin.”532 The author of these words dismisses violence, but the deep contempt he expresses is similar to that found in the Nazi ideology. Such emotionless attitude led the Nazis to invent gas chambers where they murdered people in an industrial way, separated from the blood and horror of death. Were Polish Antisemites capable of similar crimes? We know that some instigated, organized, and participated in anti-Jewish rallies.

  • The Polish Policemen and the Jewish Population of Occupied Poland, 1939-1945
    Fateful Decisions: The Polish Policemen and the Jewish Population of Occupied Poland, 1939-1945 by Sylwia Szymańska-Smolkin A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Sylwia Szymańska-Smolkin 2017 Fateful Decisions: The Polish Policemen and the Jewish Population of Occupied Poland, 1939-1945 Sylwia Szymańska-Smolkin Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2017 Abstract This dissertation analyzes the activities of the Polish police during the Second World War with particular attention paid to their triangulated relationship with the German authorities and Jewish population. To properly situate their activities, the interwar period is also covered, as it forms the historical antecedent of their creation. The position of the dissertation is that the participation of the Polish police enabled the Germans to be more successful in their implementation of the Holocaust in Poland. Alongside this contention, evidence supporting the attempts of some Polish policemen to help and assist the Jewish population is also presented. This complex and multilayered portrait is articulated while maintaining that there is sufficient evidence to challenge conventional historical views that have downplayed the Polish police’s involvement in the murder of Polish Jews. The evidence presented throughout the dissertation is distinct from previous research into the activities of the Polish police as the policemen’s actions against the Jewish population have not been subject to thorough research. In comparison with the only available book on the Polish police, which minimizes their role in implementing the Holocaust in Poland, this dissertation draws ii extensively on archival sources that were not previously accessed such as post-war trial records and eyewitness written and oral testimony.
