Whilst Poland appears today as a paradigmatic example of a homogeneous, exclusive national and cultural identity, reinforced by the hegemonic historical policy of a semi-authoritarian state, it is also challenged by Polish minority histories (civilian, multi-ethnic, non-Catholic, women). The main concern of the present article is the plural ‘Polishness’ that emerges from the constellation of these non-default histories. To examine the frictions of historical narratives in action, authors use spaces of historical museums as a field of observation, perceiving them as memory agents fostering not only confrontational but also negotiative memory politics. To identify situations in which tensions between the ‘central’ Polishness and its unorthodox variants are particularly evident, the paper takes a look at ‘non-central’ Polish territories i.e. ‘post-German’ areas, characterized by a complex heterogeneous past in which Germanness and Polishness, but also ‘Silesianness’ or ‘Borderlandness’ mutually clash and dialogue. Analysis of selected exhibitions’ construction reveals peculiarities of different local contexts in transitional spaces and strategies of resolving creeping conflicts between ‘the Polishness’ and plural, peripheral ‘Polishnesses’. As authors argue, these case studies – instead of a static model of open memory conflict and binaries – offer dynamic models of memory, and allow to introduce the concept of memory frictions.

The article deals with major conflicts over competing interpretations of contemporary history which took place in Poland after 1989. It frames this subject in a chain of historical debates concerning among others the Second World War, attitudes of Polish society vis-à-vis extermination of Jewish population during the Holocaust and post-War resistance against the Communist regime. It describes attempts of the Polish political right to impose a nationalistic narrative in the sphere of public history and examines political meaning of several state-run projects (Museum of the Second World War in Gdańsk, Museum of Polish Jews’ History in Warsaw, European Solidarity Centre in Gdańsk, Museum of Poles Saving Jews in World War II in Markowa).

The article presents the concepts of the exhibitions devoted to the contemporary history of Western Pomerania, which took place in the National Museum in Szczecin from 2002 till now. The four most important exhibitions have been analysed in a more detailed way; they exemplify the change in priorities and presentation methods of the history of the Region and the values around which the narrative of the exhibitions was created. The analysis indicates that there has been an evolution in the exhibition techniques and an increase of the role of museological education as a factor shaping the social memory of the past.
