  • Wojciech Roszkowski Post-Communist Lustration in Poland: a Political and Moral Dilemma Congress of the Societas Ethica, Warsaw 22 August 2009 Draft Not to Be Quoted
    Wojciech Roszkowski Post-Communist Lustration in Poland: a Political and Moral Dilemma Congress of the Societas Ethica, Warsaw 22 August 2009 Draft not to be quoted 1. Introduction Quite recently a well-known Polish writer stated that the major dividing line in the Polish society runs across the attitude towards lustration. Some Poles, he said, have been secret security agents or collaborators or, for some reasons, defend this cooperation, others have not and want to make things clear1. Even if this statement is a bit exaggerated, it shows how heated the debates on lustration in Poland are. Secret services in democratic countries are a different story than security services in totalitarian states. Timothy Garton Ash even calls this comparison “absurd”2. A democratic state is, by definition, a common good of its citizens. Some of them are professionals dealing with the protection of state in police, armed forces and special services, all of them being subordinated to civilian, constitutional organs of the state. Other citizens are recruited by these services extremely rarely and not without their consent. In totalitarian states secret services are the backbone of despotic power of the ruling party and serve not the security of a country but the security of the ruling elites. Therefore they should rather be given the name of security services. They tend to bring under their control all aspects of political, social, economic, and cultural life of the subjects of the totalitarian state, becoming, along with uniformed police and armed forces, a pillar of state coercion. Apart from propaganda, which is to make people believe in the ideological goals of the totalitarian state, terror is the main vehicle of power, aiming at discouraging people from any thoughts and deeds contrary to the said goals and even from any activity independent of the party-state.

Proponents of the ―Western Idea‖ proposed a shift of Polish borders deep into German territory; they wanted to ‗return‘ territory belonging to the first Polish state in the tenth century. Much of the land had been settled by German-speakers (with assimilated Slavic-speaking populations) since the thirteenth century. After World War II, the ―Western Idea‖ was incorporated by Polish communists in an attempt to cater to nationalist rhetoric; accordingly, the communist ―Western Idea‖ projected an endless struggle between Germans and Poles in order to justify new Polish borders and an anti-German stance. Not surprisingly, positive aspects of Polish-German history had no place in the picture. In this course, we will explore Polish-German relations in the context of European change. On the one hand, the region is typified by territorial conflict (as best revealed by the eighteenth century elimination of Poland through Prussian, Austrian and Russian partition).

    Aneta Dawidowicz* TRADITION AND THE PAST IN THE POLITICAL THOUGHT OF THE NATIONAL PARTY (1928–1939)1 DOI: 10.26399/meip.3(66).2019.34/a.dawidowicz intRoduction Views of the National Party (1928–1939) merit special attention, given both the Party’s prominent role in the political life of interwar Poland, and the interesting combination of various elements derived from diverse ideological trends within the Party’s programme. The ideological legacy of the National Party reflected, to a large extent, the key constituents of the National Democracy’s political thought, such as nationalism, representation of all social classes, national integrity, and the concept of the nation-state. The National Party underwent major evolution, and was subject to internal divisions, which makes the image of its political thought much more complex. The National Party’s ideological contribution to Nationalist political thought, and – broadly speaking – to Polish and European political thought, was significant. The National Party’s political thought covered a wide range of ideological, political, systemic, historiosophical, philosophical, pedagogical, social, and economic issues. Its creators developed a vision of multiple categories referring, inter alia, to the nation, the state, political power, the * Aneta Dawidowicz – Ph.D. hab., the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, Department of Political Sciences, e-mail: [email protected]; ORCID 0000-0002-5266- 2247 1 This article was drawn up within the framework of the research project entitled “The National Party’s Political Thought in 1928–1939” financed from the resources granted by the National Science Centre under decision No. DEC-2013/09/B/HS5/00016.

    KAROLINA WICHOWSKA KAROLINA WICHOWSKA In this story the dark history of the Stalinist period intertwines with the knowledge of the state-of-the-art technology of genetic identi cation. The scientists’ profes- sionalism contrasts with the emotions of the victims’ families – hope, tension, and painful memories. We go from the excavated section of the Powązki cemetery to ‘ THE SOLDIERS’FIELD ‘THE SOLDIERS’ the high-tech genetic laboratories in Szczecin and Cracow. We access the memory of the communist prisons, brutal investigations, and fatherless childhood only to look into the future where the research methods developed by the Polish scientists shall become an internationally followed model.
