    Oblicza współczesnych organizacji polonijnych w wybranych krajach unijnej piętnastki
    (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2014) Czop, Edyta
    The article deals with issues to do with organizational life of the Polish milieus in the “old” Member States of the EU-15. It is predominantly focused on the most recent forms of the Poles’ activity which used to be considered an absolute novelty just a few years ago. This is exemplified by a functional analysis of women’s organizations, self-help groups as well as organizations grouping top class specialists. The Author tries to explain the reasons why the Poles flowing into the EU countries try to resolve their problems by themselves. Also, the Author attempts to answer the question why old Polonia organizations are not always able to respond effectively to the recent migrant community needs.

    Społeczność polska w Wielkiej Brytanii w świetle współczesnej twórczości powieściowej. Analiza mimetyczna
    (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2014) Romejko, Adam
    René Girard’s mimetic theory is based on an analysis of a variety of literary works, including novels, myths and the Bible. Its main assumption is that human behaviour is animated by mimesis. Under certain conditions it can lead to serious conflicts. In the past, communities coped with this problem using a system based on the mechanism of victimization (the scapegoat ritual). The Girardian insights may be applied in studies focusing on the Polish community in the United Kingdom, especially by analyzing literary works. Research can reveal an image that is different from the ones that are often promoted. The Poles who settled in Great Britain were and still are average people and not heroes whom they consider themselves to be. On the British soil they look for personal happiness and want a normal life among those who accept and love them.

    Współczesne organizacje polonijne i ich rola w życiu Polonii w Holandii
    (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2014) Leska-Ślęzak, Joanna
    Starting from the XIX century migrations have become a mass phenomenon. Currently, they are considered a fundamental value and a human right. The Netherlands occupies an important place among the countries to which Poles emigrate. Over the XX and XXI century, the Polish community in the Netherlands established organizational forms which significantly facilitate the Polish emigrees’ living abroad. The Polish diaspora in the Netherlands is estimated at around 200 thous. The contemporary Polonia organizations fulfill many functions: they assist, inform, educate, offer cultural activities. The Internet is the main communication instrument for the contemporary Polish diaspora organizations in the Netherlands.

    Aktywność polityczna Polaków na Litwie i Ukrainie na przełomie XX i XXI wieku. Studium przypadków
    (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2014) Bonusiak, Andrzej
    The collapse of the USRR marks the beginning of a new period in the history of the Poles who used to live in this state. In the aftermath of the political processes, the Poles, who were dispersed in the various areas of the Soviet Union, started to function in its sovereign successor states. Both their capacity to act and results achieved were dependent on how numerous their milieus have been, what the given national majority’s attitude to the Poles was, if the Poles’ choices were opportune as well as what the legal conditions in which the national minorities could function were in those states. The present article attempts to analyse the Poles’ situation in Lithuania and Ukraine between 1988 and 2014.

    (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2014) Sidorkiewicz, Krzysztof
    The article presents an analysis of the activities undertaken by Poles in Lithuania following the parliamentary election of 2012.

Związek Polaków na Litwie [The Union of Poles in Lithuania] followed by Akcja Wyborcza Polaków na Litwie [Electoral Action of Poles in Lithuania] presented their programs for the coming elections. Their involvement in the Lithuanian politics at the national level enabled them to articulate issues important for the Polish community in Lithuania. AWPL participated in the governing coalition. The political circumstances made their proposed solutions not easy to implement. Some problems were temporarily resolved, while most of the important issues remained under discussion. The analysis is based on various documents: agreements, treaties, declarations, statements. Also, it uses press material available in the Internet editions.

    (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2014) Gawin, Tadeusz
    The article is an attempt at presenting the ways in which the Polish People’s Republic’s and the Third Polish Republic’s authorities took advantage of the Gorbatschev’s perestroika in the USSR as well as of the new intellectual currents in Poland to help the Poles in the USSR to pursue their national revival. The text is based on archival documents (mainly from Archiwum Akt Nowych, zespół Wydział Zagraniczny Komitetu Centralnego PZPR) as well as an analysis of the most recent publications concerning the issue. The article first aims at answering the questions how the Poles in Belarus used the offered support in 1988-1991 and if they managed to lay foundations for the future Polish activity in Belarus. Second, it tries to assess if and to what extent the Poles living in Poland were involved in the authorities’ actions for the benefit of their compatriots in Belarus.
