Unemployment and emigration were the most important and urgent concerns which beset Poland shortly after its rebirth in 1918. The Catholic Church took action in both of these fields, inspired by the teachings of Popes Leo XIII and Pius XI concerning the so-called “social issue.” These inspirations were aptly interpreted and practically implemented by Antoni Julian Nowowiejski, bishop of Płock, known today as a social activist and reformer. This text analyses the specific activities of the Płock clergy in the interwar period, which were supposed to counteract the negative social consequences of the issues mentioned above.

The following article is devoted to the considerations on life of Russian diasphora in religious context. The famous periodicals and the activtiy of the scientific circles of religious or proorthodox character were investigated. Their role in a moral rebirth and return to faith was assessed. Such processes as the establishment of religious organizations and development of spirtual life of Russian emigrants were shown on the basis of the activity of individual emigrants. The cultural life of Russian who live in exile was in total contradiction with a life in Bolshevist Russia. The rebirth of religion on enormous range – that was the answer of Russian emigrants to atheism of fighting revolutionaries. In fact the Russian intelligentsia returned to the Orthodox faith which that time was the only spiritual power rebirthing the spiritual life in Russia. Such factors as the depolticization of the Russian Orthodox Church, events in Soviet Russia and life in exile were responsible for this situation.

Niniejszy artykuł został poświęcony rozważaniom nad życiem rosyjskiej diaspory w aspekcie religijnym. Przedmiotem badań stały się znane periodyki oraz działalność kół naukowych o charakterze religijnym bądź procerkiewnym. Oceniono rolę tych podmiotów w moralnym odrodzeniu rosyjskiego społeczeństwa i powrocie do wiary. Na przykładzie działań poszczególnych przedstawicieli emigracji pokazano proces powstawania organizacji religijnych i rozwój życia duchowego Rosjan na wygnaniu. Życie kulturowe emigracji było całkowitym zaprzeczeniem tego, co działo się w bolszewickiej Rosji. Odpowiedzią rosyjskiej diaspory na walczący ateizm rewolucjonistów było odrodzenie religijności na niespotykaną dotąd skalę. Oderwanie od ojczyzny z jednej strony oraz wydarzenia w Rosji radzieckiej i depolityzacja Rosyjskiej Cerkwi Prawosławnej z drugiej sprawiły, że rosyjska inteligencja powróciła do prawosławia, będącego wówczas jedyną duchową siłą odradzającą jej duchowe życie.

The article describes the life and works of Stanisław Wygodzki (1907 – 1992), a writer, a poet, a translator of German and Jewish literature and a critic, born in Będzin. He had bitter experiences of the two totalitarianisms of the 20th century – nazism (as a prisoner of the Auschwitz concentration camp) and communism. Wygodzki was a writer of rebellion and social injustice, somewhat forgotten and banished, also in a literary sense. It was a conscious political choice of a writer, a prewar communist, who was engaged in the legitimization of communist rule. The tragedy of a committed artist took place over the years. The motif of a river, mentioned in the article and ever-present in the literary works of the Polish-Jewish writer and poet, may be compared to the unpredictable fate that communists faced. Exodus was also particularly tragic for Stanisław Wygodzki. The events preceding March ’68 made it impossible for him to stay in Poland. The writer left for Israel. Away from Poland where his literary works had gone through a metamorphosis, he did not feel good because of the lack of Polish – speaking environment. In one of the last reviews he admitted he had served a bad cause.

The article explores nostalgia as a cognitive and affective mechanism of memory aimed at the restoration and healing of one’s Self and developing knowledge of one’s Self by means of involving oneself in the individual or collective past. Employing method of narrative inquiry with the elements of autobiographical inquiry and fiction writing, the article focuses primarily on the individual nostalgic experience unlike nostalgia as a collective phenomenon. The article relies on interpretative analysis of the author’s short stories, selected diary entries, interviews with female immigrants in Colombia and travel blog entries in the broader context of the sociological, psychological and philosophical studies of memory and nostalgia and literary and cinematic works that explore the relevant topics.

Klaus Mann (1906–1949) belonged to generation influenced by the two World Wars, burgeoning communism, and rising nationalism. Political component in his work is very strongly articulated not only in novels and essays, but also in autobiographical work. This emphasises his fascination in times he lived, but most of all it expresses his own involvement in fighting the evil which in his eyes were represented by Hitler and Nazism. In Mann’s eyes communism was not solely represented as a political system, but rather an ally in his personal crusade. In the literature there is often a question asked whether Klaus Mann was a communist or an ideologist whose majority of opinions were in line with ideological assumptions and values of the communist system. Despite clear declarations of the author himself, it is worth to look into his inner development: from fascination through growing distance and eventually disappointment which resulted in detaching himself from the communist ideas.

The seizure of power by the National Socialists in Germany in 1933 and in 1938 in Austria severely limited free development of literature. In order to protect literary freedom and to express resentment against the policies of Hitler, many writers decided to emigrate. The purpose of the article is to present the emigration journey of Franz Theodor Csokor, the only Austrian writer who chose Poland for the country of his exile. In 1938 he left his homeland and returned after seven years of exile in 1945. His journey led through Poland, which he was forced to leave because of the war, Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Croatia, Curzola and Italy. The author presents the writer’s wartime experience that has been expressed in Csokor’s literary works. He briefly mentions works that were created during the expatriation. At the end the author makes a review of Csokor’s publications and his work.

Inhabitants of the Habsburg Monarchy began to dominate in the number of immigrants heading to the United States of America after year 1883. The largest number of emigrants were heading through the North German ports, because the journey to the north of Germany was not difficult at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Thanks to emigration, two German ports, Hamburg and Bremen, recorded the prosperity growth. Both ports played a major role in emigration as an imaginary gateway for emigrants from the Monarchy, and both German shipping companies, Hamburg Amerikanische Paketfahrt Aktien-Gesellschaft (HAPAG) based in Hamburg and Norddeutscher Lloyd (NDL) of which shipping departed port Bremen, must be grateful for poor emigrants from the Habsburg Monarchy. German companies began to focus on the Monarchy market, especially after the German Government began regulating emigration from its own country, and then the two German shipping companies found a replacement in the Monarchy.

W artykule wskazuje się na rolę i działalność polskich emigrantów w krajach i kulturach arabskich. Do tego obszaru zaliczono w materiale Afrykę Północno-Zachodnią, Afrykę Północno-Wschodnią, Bliski Wschód i Półwysep Arabski. Są to regiony zdominowane przez ludność pochodzenia arabskiego. Pierwsi emigranci z ziem polskich zaczęli docierać do krajów arabskich już w średniowieczu i czasach nowożytnych. Dopiero od końca XVIII w. zaczęło przyjeżdżać coraz więcej osób, ale ta część świata nigdy nie stanowiła dla polskiej emigracji atrakcyjnego miejsca do zamieszkania. Największe grupy dotarły tam w latach II wojny światowej, ale miało to związek z uchodźcami politycznymi uciekającymi przed Rzeszą Niemiecką oraz osobami ewakuowanymi ze Związku Radzieckiego. Polskich emigrantów docierających do krajów arabskich podzielić można na trzy grupy. Pierwszą stanowiła emigracja polityczno-wojskowa – oficerowie w wojsku tureckim, żołnierze francuskiej i hiszpańskiej legii cudzoziemskiej, oddziały wojskowe biorące udział w działaniach zbrojnych związanych z II wojną światową. Drugą była emigracja ekonomiczno-zarobkowa – rzemieślnicy, specjaliści, artyści, kadry naukowo-techniczne XIX i XX-wieczne. Trzecia wywodziła się z emigracji społeczno-kulturalnej – duchowni pracujący w tej części świata, małżeństwa polsko-arabskie.

In this paper, we indicate the role and activity of Polish emigrants in Arabic countries and cultures. The regions considered in the text embrace north-western and north-eastern Africa, the Near East and the Arabian Peninsula – regions dominated by the peoples of Arabic descent. The first emigrants from the Polish territories began to arrive in Arabic countries as early as the Middle Ages and early Modern times. It was only from the end of the 18th century that the numbers began to grow, yet this part of the world has never been an attractive destination for settlement for Polish emigrants. The largest groups settled there during World War II, comprised of political refugees from the territories occupied by the Third Reich and those evacuated from the Soviet Union. The emigrants from Poland who made their way to Arabic countries can be divided into three groups. The first was formed by the political-military emigration – officers in the Turkish army, soldiers of the French and Spanish Foreign Legion, military troops participating in the battles of World War II. The economic and gainful employment-oriented emigration were the second group, constituted by craftsmen, professionals, artists, research and engineering personnel of the 19th and 20th centuries. Finally, the third was derived from socio-cultural emigration, i.e. members of the clergy who provide their services in this part of the world or Polish-Arabic married couples.

We know very little about the emigration from Cieszyn Silesia to the United States of America in the second half of the 19th century. One source of information concerning the history of emigration is the press. The most important Polish newspaper in Cieszyn Silesia was Gwiazdka Cieszyńska (literally: The Cieszyn Star). Examination of issues of Gwiazdka Cieszyńska from 1851 to 1887 (the period when Paweł Stalmach was the editor-in-chief) provides some information about the emigration from Cieszyn Silesia to the United States of America. Additionally, it reveals how the newspaper created an image of the United States of America aimed at discouraging their readers from emigrating to this country.

This article explores various forms of self-presentation of the hetman on the path of self-knowledge in the conditions of hopelessness caused by emigration. Pylyp Orlyk’s handwritten diary of 1725, 1726, and 1727 is dominated by motives of accustoming to emigration conditions, protection of privacy, discourses, illness and recovery, friendship, solitude with reading, and fi nally, more clearly than before, the self-awareness of the soul. “Peregrine”, as Orlyk calls himself in 1727, aft er eighteen years of emigration. He orders two or three services at once for the children on their birthdays, for the health of his wife Anna of the Hercyk family. Orlyk visits all the churches in Th essaloniki, is a good Christian, but nowhere emphasizes his denomination. He believes in the power of praying for the health of his family and friends. Sincere prayer becomes medicine. One of the described disasters of that time is perceived today in a very modern way - “bad air”. Th is euphemism is repeated in the manuscript when it comes to the plague pandemic in Th essaloniki, Smyrna, Istanbul.

Shipping in the Habsburg Monarchy is closely related to the two Austrian shipping overseas companies, one of which was Austro-Americana. This shipping company was founded in the late 19th century, but quickly settled with other shipping companies on the European continent, despite the fact that the company did not receive such large financial subsidies as the second Austrian company Österreichischer Lloyd. Thanks to the established shipping lines to North American ports, especially to New York, the company soon began to focus on the transport of migrants from various European countries, mainly from Austria-Hungary, and could also build large steamboats designed for migration transport.

In view of globalization process analysis of migration forms important and actual problem. The paper presents the results of statistic, econometric and demographic analysis of migration processes in Silesia province in Poland in 2010. Especially taken into account was problem of negative migration balance in the province, caused, as stated, by decreasing influx to the Silesia province from the others. There were estimated migration models of influx and outflow of the migrants. Finally, it has been stated that some of the migration laws formed in XIX century by E.G. Ravenstein are still actual in Poland, among others the law of relation between the level of migration and its distance, and the law of opposite flows of migration, while the law of higher migration of urban (vs. rural) inhabitants was no longer valid.

Polska jest ważnym krajem emigracyjnym o znaczącej skali wyjazdów. Istotnym zadaniem kształtującej się polityki migracyjnej staje się w związku z tym minimalizowanie negatywnych skutków masowych wyjazdów i maksymalizowanie korzyści wynikających z tego procesu. W Polsce wzrasta jednocześnie liczba przyjeżdżających cudzoziemców i trzeba spodziewać się, że w miarę wzrostu atrakcyjności społeczno-gospodarczej kraju grupa ta będzie coraz większa. Dyskusja nad charakterem polityki (i)migracyjnej, a zwłaszcza integracyjnej, staje się w związku z tym nieunikniona. Wzrastający napływ cudzoziemców i duża skala emigracji nabierają wreszcie szczególnego znaczenia w kontekście prognozowanych zmian demograficznych. W tym znaczeniu polityka migracyjna stanowić może zatem także komplementarne narzędzie rozwiązywania problemów wynikających z tych zmian.

Poland is an important emigration country, where the scale of departure abroad is significant. Because of the fact, a vital element of migration policy that is being created is minimizing negative outcomes of mass emigration and maximizing benefits that result from this process. The number of foreigners that come to Poland increases and it can be expected that, as the social and economical attractiveness of the country grows, this group will be bigger. A discussion concerning the character of immigration policy, especially the integrative one, seems to be unavoidable. An increasing influx of foreigners and a huge scale of emigration become very important in the context of demographical changes’ prediction. Significant decrease of population, deep changes in its structure, according to the age and growing old, become an important challenge, that Polish society has to face. Therefore, a migration policy can be a tool for solving problems that result from these changes.

Trafficking in human beings is a phenomenon of rapid and profound changes. They are caused by, inter alia, globalization, the development of social ills and the gains brought by the growth of organized crime at dawn. Crime of this type, because of its low detection and disproportionate profits it brings, is becoming more popular than the trade in weapons or drugs. Human trafficking is a massive crime against humanity and respect for human rights is very important in the life of every individual and the country. We are born with rights, develop, and later with the rules die. Sometimes, however, this is how the acts of trafficking, that our rights are limited and broken. It is therefore necessary to detect all the operations and monitoring, which have as their primary objective to prevent crime.

The « great detention » analysed by Michel Foucault shows the fear societies have of wanderers and tramps. During the wholeclassical period, political and religious elites try to lock up people who don’t have neither home nor work, thinking that they are a danger to society’s order. Arts and literature represent this threat, reinforcing the negativity of wandering and mobility in minds. However, there is a time in French history leading to question this doxa. A political revolution turns these representations round. The French Revolution changes the camp of suspicion towards wandering. Starting from 1789, old elites, ironically, find themselves out in the streets with nothing. These people, the Émigrés, are the ones creating literature during the revolutionary period. This phenomenonaffects writing at this time, and arises ethical and aesthetic questions. The texts written in exile trying to answer these questions create a new sensibility which is going to influence the minds of the 19th century.

The main purpose of the article is to identify and recognize ways of reinterpretating romantic heritage throughout a wide historical and literary context. The thesis concentrates on a novel written by Josef Škvorecký, entitled Příběh inženýra lidských duší , which deals with the themes of the history of emigration, totalitarianism and literature, which can be helpful in elucidating unexplained experiences. It is necessary to consider dependent relationships and connections between history and older literature. The main character of Škvoreský’s story, Danny Smiřický, is a Czech emigrant working as a lecturer at a Canadian university. The experience of reading proves to him just how universal and significant literature can be. The literary works of Edgar Allan Poe and Nathaniel Hawthorne become the way of “translating” Czech experience with communism for Canadian students. An hour of literature range into an hour of history.

Tematem badawczym niniejszego artykułu jest analiza przyczyn i charakteru migracji Rosjan, którzy w ciągu ostatniego dziesięciolecia wyjechali z Rosji z powodów ideologicznych i politycznych, i za kierunek migracji obrali Litwę, Łotwę lub Estonię. Obecnie w państwach bałtyckich, ze względu na bliskość geograficzną i krytyczny stosunek tych państw wobec Rosji, wielu rosyjskich emigrantów kontynuuje swoją działalność opozycyjną. Celem autorki jest zbadanie zasadności stwierdzenia, że działania rosyjskiej emigracji potencjalnie mogą stać się katalizatorem zmian systemowych w Rosji w przyszłości. Krytyczna analiza tematu dowodzi, że mimo dynamicznie rozwijającej się współpracy i inicjatyw podejmowanych przez emigrantów, ich efektywność jest niewielka, dlatego nie ma podstaw, by sądzić, aby za ich przyczyną miało dojść do rychłych zmian społeczno-politycznych w Rosji.

The main purpose of this paper is to indicate the circumstances and the character of emigration from Russia, particularly to pay attention to Russians who have left Russia for ideological and political reasons over the past decade, and have chosen Lithuania, Latvia or Estonia as a place of their residence. Currently, in the Baltic States, due to their geographical proximity and critical attitude towards Russia, many Russian immigrants have been continuing their opposition activities. The aim of the paper is to analyse if Russian emigration activities may potentially become a catalyst for systemic changes in Russia in the future. Critical analysis of the topic proves, however, that despite the dynamic cooperation development and initiatives undertaken by the emigrants, their effectiveness is low, therefore there is no reason to suppose they would lead to the imminent socio-political changes in Russia.

The War In Syria has caused massive migration movements to Europe In 2015. European Union Has defined the situation as the threat not as a challenge. Neither European Union, neither Poland have manager to Deal with this challenge. In such a context one needs to post the question: is oland ready for multiculturalism and is it ready to function well in globalized, diverse world of 21st century. The crisis in Syria has also questioned maturity of EU as social community. It appears, that facing Syrian crisis, Europe and Poland especially demonstrated lack of understanding, consciousness and sense of community, with those searching for asylums.

Wojna w Syrii spowodowała w 2015 roku masowe migracje uchodźców do Europy, co zostało potraktowane jako narastający problem, a nie wyzwanie. Polska temu wyzwaniu nie sprostała i nie przyjęła żadnych uchodźców. W tym kontekście warto się zastanowić nad tym, czy Polska w ogóle jest gotowa do funkcjonowania we współczesnym zróżnicowanym świecie. Co można zrobić, by tę gotowość podnieść? Kryzys syryjski zakwestionował także dojrzałość Unii Europejskiej jako wspólnoty społecznej i obnażył fakt, że przyświecająca idei stworzenia Unii motywacja oparta na wspólnocie interesów, jest za słaba dla tworzenia kulturowej jedności1. W dobie kryzysy syryjskiego, okazuje się, że tożsamość europejska jest nadal krucha.
