The subject of my interest in this paper are repressions against students during the formation of the communist system in Poland in the years 1951–1956. This analysis is based on the history of two organizations: Zjednoczone Stronnictwa Narodowe (United National Organization) and Związek Walczącej Młodzieży (Association of Fighting Youth), biographies of prisoners and the history of Jaworzno camp – a progressive prison for juveniles in Jaworzno. Many young people, students from Polish junior high schools and high schools, were sent to prisons due to their involvement in patriotic activities in many organizations and struggle for independence. The aim of the imprisonment was to carry out their re-education in accordance with the requirements of the communist political system. One of the main goals of communism was to negate their deepest values, such as: Catholic faith, patriotic desire to build a sovereign Polish state independent of Moscow. As the result of their conflict with the communist authorities caused by their patriotic attitude many young people ended up in Jaworzno camp. Biographies of Józef Poteraj (born in 1934) and Marek Eminowicz (1933–2013) are of particular interest in this study.
