Polish Studies in Culture, Nations and Politics Edited by Joanna Kurczewska & Yasuko Shibata Vol
polish 3()’ 187 14 sociological review ISSN 1231 – 1413 Polish Studies in Culture, Nations and Politics Edited by Joanna Kurczewska & Yasuko Shibata vol. 4 Yasuko Shibata, Discrimination for the Sake of the Nation. The Discourse of the League of Polish Families against “Others” 2001–2007 Frankfurt am Main: Peter Lang, 2013, pp. 310. ISBN 978-3-631-64132-3 (Print), E-ISBN 978-3-653-03088-4 (E-Book) Discrimination for the Sake of the Nation. The Discourse of the League of Polish Families against “Others” 2001–2007 written by Yasuko Shibata is the fourth volume of Polish Studies in Culture, Nations and Politics, a Peter Lang series that aims at publishing monographs and collections of articles dedicated to selected topics from the fields of sociology, political sciences and history. This publication is an example of the interdisciplinary Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) study, a type of the research that constitutes a very popular current in the broadly defined social sciences. It also fills the gap in the literature on the role of discriminatory and national discourses in Polish politics. Since the League of Polish Families [ Liga Polskich Rodzin (LPR)] there has been no Polish prominent political actor that would explicitly and successfully use the former category of discourse. This success, however, had its limits: LPR, the Polish far-right political party formed in April 2001 as a merger of several factions and political communities that were invoking the legacy of the National Democracy (ND), never played a key role in the Polish politics. The period between 2001 and 2007, however, was the time during which the party managed to enter twice, (2001 and 2005) the Parliament of Poland acquiring, respectively, 7,87% (36 candidates in the Sejm and 2 in the Senat) and 7,97% (34 candidates in the Sejm and 7 in the Senat) of the votes cast. -

Po ujawnieniu tzw. afery gruntowej i przecieku dotyczącego akcji CBA w Ministerstwie Rolnictwa, pod znakiem zapytania stanęła możliwość dalszego funkcjonowania koalicji PiS–Samoobrona–LPR. Ostatecznie w połowie sierpnia Jarosław Kaczyński ogłosił koniec koalicji rządowej, usunął koalicyjnych ministrów, tworząc de facto mniejszościowy rząd PiS. Przez cały ten okres trwały spory i walka na oświadczenia między Andrzejem Lepperem i zdymisjonowanym szefem MSWiA Januszem Kaczmarkiem, z jednej strony, a ministrem sprawiedliwości Zbigniewem Ziobro z drugiej. Obaj politycy zarzucali ministrowi i kierowanej przez niego prokuraturze, a także CBA nadużywanie prawa, stosowanie nielegalnych działań oraz wykorzystywanie władzy do walki politycznej. Z kolei minister odrzucał te oskarżenia przypisując obu politykom niejasne powiązania z biznesem i udział w tzw. układzie – dotychczas rządzącym i wciąż mającym jego zdaniem wielkie wpływy w państwie. W Sejmie, który po wakacjach wznowił obrady, trwały proceduralne przepychanki i kłótnie dotyczące trybu jego samorozwiązania. Opozycyjna PO zapowiadała odwołanie niemal wszystkich ministrów w rządzie Jarosława Kaczyńskiego. Jednocześnie w parlamencie ujawniono tajne dotąd zeznania Janusza Kaczmarka dotyczące sposobu funkcjonowania wymiaru sprawiedliwości i służb specjalnych pod rządami PiS. -

8 Pologne Extremistes
COESIO NET EUROPEAN COHESION AND TERRITORIES RESEARCH NETWORK EXTREMIST RIGHT IN POLAND Paper by Nikolay MARINOV Director François Bafoil CNRS – Sciences Po/CERI Collège Universitaire de Sciences Po – Campus de Dijon Polish extreme right fractions experienced a relatively unexpected short-lived period of electoral success in the beginning of the 21st century. This gain of public opinion approval lies on a superimposition of processes that were set in motion in Polish society throughout the transition period. For six years between 2001 and 2007, parties like the overtly extremist League of Polish families (LPR) and the populist left-right swinger Self-Defense (Samoobrona – SO), attracted media attention with the unpredictability of their electoral performance and controversy of the stances they were advocating, until a brief period in government for the first when a series of scandals exhausted their popularity and ballot box support withdrew to such an extent that even a promising environment consisting of an economic crisis could not help the extreme right resurrect from the little glorifying existence in oblivion. A contributing factor for their recent demise is the ascension of the populist right-wing Law and Justice party that diverted the more moderate elements of the electoral base. As the Polish extreme right is widely considered in the current political arrangement as practically defunct, it is legitimate to explore the way in which its presence contributed in shaping the political debate in post-communist Poland. The League of Polish families is a political party which traces its roots back to a neo-nazi racist movement founded in the early 1990s by the young Roman Giertych, he himself being a third generation of extreme right politician. -

Goethe-Universität / Fritz Bauer Institut Frankfurt am Main, 2010 www.wollheim-memorial.de Peer Heinelt: Financial Compensation for Nazi Forced Laborers, p. 1 Introduction After tough negotiations with the Conference on Jewish Material Claims against Germany, the Krupp Group made the following announcement on December 23, 1959: At least DM 6 million but no more than DM 10 million would be paid to former Jewish concentration camp prisoners who could show that they ―were employed in plants of Krupp or its subsidiaries during the war as a result of Na- tional Socialist actions‖; each entitled claimant would receive the sum of DM 5,000. The sole owner Alfried Krupp, according to the company newsletter, had ―resolved upon this agreement in order to make a personal contribution toward the healing of the wounds suffered in the war.‖ By his own admission, the agreement signified ―no recognition of any legal obligation,‖ but instead represented a charitable gesture, further emphasized by the announcement of the signing of the document one day before Christmas.1 The Claims Conference, however, had to guarantee that no legal actions against Krupp would be taken in the future with regard to compensation. -

GOLDMAN* If there is no judge and no judgment, then everything is arbitrary and Hitler, may his name perish, was right: force is the only law. Then it’s normal to play with the skulls of small children and to order a fa- ther to dig a grave for himself and his family.1 In the late nineteenth century, the long-established Krupp family of merchants and industrialists had already emerged as the primary arms provider to Bismarck’s Second Reich, and would continue as the coun- try’s principal munitions supplier through the First World War. -

When Catholicism Meets the EU: It’S Not Always Euroenthusiasm
1/2016 1/2016 When Catholicism meets the EU: it’s not always Euroenthusiasm Simona Guerra University of Leicester Abstract This paper examines why, when and how Catholicism adopts a Eurosceptic narrative and whether religious Euroscepticism can emerge in post-communist countries, also comparing how the narrative changed before and after accession. The scope is threefold: (i) first, it seeks to provide an in-depth study on Catholicism and European integration. While religion has generally been considered as supportive of a positive attitude toward the European Union (EU), this analysis shows it can also become an element of Euroscepticism; (ii) second, it focuses on the case study of Poland, using CBOS and PNES data; and (iii) third, it suggests an original framework, and explores, from a comparative perspective, when and how the Roman Catholic Church (or a branch thereof) has sought an alliance with a political party. Keywords Catholicism, EU integration, Euroscepticism, Poland, public opinion Introduction s Christians, Roman Catholics are universalists by convenience’ ‘A and favour transnational organizations, considering the Church as the cradle of culture and civilization (Nelsen and Guth, 2003). In a speech at the College of Europe in 1953, Pope Pius XII stated that the Christian faith had to be central to European integration: ‘we fear that without it Europe does not have the inner strength to preserve either the integrity of its ideals or its territorial and material inde- pendence in the face of more powerful adversaries’ (Nelsen and Guth, 2003: 18). 1/2016 1/2016 Simona Guerra 26 The fathers of European integration were led by their Christian Democratic values.
