The assassination of Polish president Gabriel Narutowicz in 1922. Reflections from the century’s perspective
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2024-03) Pleskot, Patryk
From the geopolitical point of view the year 1922 could be perceived as a very first „ordinary” year for the newly emerged Republic of Poland. Military clashes were over, the frontiers had been determined and defended. Nevertheless, hardly achieved, relative international security caused a real eruption of inner difficulties. As the common ennemy (mainly the Soviets) was gone, the demons emerged which up till now had been asleep for decennies because of the inexistence of Polish state. A dramatic climax was reached in the last quarter of the year, when firstly the parliamentary and secondly the presidential elections took place. The results were dissapointing for both conservative and leftist parties and quite rewarding for the ethnic minorities. Highly strained atmosphere, exacerbated by agressive media, resulted in street fights and full bloom of antisemite and nationalist behaviours. It all led to a drama: the 16th December 1922, Eligiusz Niewiadomski – a fanatic, frustrated nationalist – murdered the very first president of Republic of Poland, Gabriel Narutowicz – a supporter of tolerance and liberalism – who had been elected just few days earlier. It was a dramatic consequence of political violence – a phenomenon which has its contemporary incarnations.
The red (un)rule of law. The issue of human rights violations in the military justice system of “People’s” Poland. The case of military district courts (1946–1955)
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2021) Pleskot, Patryk
The network of Military District Courts, which encircled the Polish People's Republic (also known as People’s Poland) in the first post-war decade, was a fundamental tool for installing communist power and building a new “worker-peasant” system for the party and state decision-makers. Courts served primarily to crack down on political opposition and (declining) armed resistance. Despite their theoretically military nature, the Military District Courts [WSRs] sentenced mainly civilians, and the reasons for sentences lay in political and ideological calculation rather than in real, objective crimes. In this sense, the WSRs should be regarded as a clear manifestation and symbol of the lawlessness of the “people's” justice system, infringing fundamental human rights.
Wykuwanie prezydentury. Przyczyny i okoliczności decyzji o powołaniu urzędu Prezydenta PRL (1985–1988)
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2024-12) Pleskot, Patryk
W artykule podjęto próbę przeanalizowania przyczyn i okoliczności prowadzących do podjęcia przez Wojciecha Jaruzelskiego decyzji o powołaniu urzędu Prezydenta PRL. Proces ten nastąpił w drugiej połowie lat osiemdziesiątych i objął zarówno osobiście głównego decydenta w aparacie partyjno-państwowym schyłkowego PRL, lecz także jego najbliższe otoczenie oraz część establishmentu politycznego. Przyjrzano się nie tylko uwarunkowaniom wewnętrznym, lecz także międzynarodowym. Przeanalizowano koncepcje powołania urzędu prezydenckiego, z którymi zapoznawał się gen. Jaruzelski. Problematykę tę omówiono za pomocą analizy historycznej z uwzględnieniem podejścia charakterystycznego dla teorii procesu decyzyjnego oraz migration studies.
