What consequences will be caused by the Great Crisis? As often as not the economic aspects of the affair are discussed both in mass media, and in scientific discourse. But, if one would recall the Great Depression of 1930th, the most alarms must appear to be caused by the socio-political facet of the Crisis. First and foremost, it is necessary to find out how will the Crisis influence on next presidential and parliamentary elections in Ukraine. Is there a threat of uncertain political stability being disturbed in our country? Are there real grounds to expect any dramatic changes within the political parties structuring in consideration of election results? What the future should be both for the left and for the right radicals if we do take into account all of these developments? These and quite a number relative to them questions have been discussed by participants at Round Table of the 'Philosophical Thought' Journal.

Addressing opinions of some Polish opponents of postcolonial theory and postcolonial studies regarding the alleged 'primitivism' of such theory and such studies, the article first discusses some of the most vital problems within postcolonial theory, such as: the condition of post(-)coloniality, postcolonialism as the de-centring of discourse(s) in the context of the project of 'provincialization' of Europe, and the relation between postcolonialism and postmodernism. Secondarily, the article sets postcolonialism in the Polish context by posing questions as to the prospects of the application of postcolonial theory to the re-reading of Polish literature. It concludes with the suggestion of three major fields where this application may be advantageous to Polish studies and Polish public discourse at the present time.

The fact that controversies about the past become the subject of public debate testifies to the growing significance of the role of collective memory. In Poland two such controversies emerged recently. The first was triggered off by Jan Tomasz Gross' book 'The Neighbours' that describes the murder committed during the war on Jews by the Polish inhabitants of Jedwabne; the other is a consequence of the actions taken up by the head of the Union of the Expelled, Erika Steinbach, and her many years' endeavours to create the so-called Centre Against Expulsions in Germany. The matter of post-war 'expulsions' divided Polish disputants into adherents of two opposed points of view. One thread of the debate that started in 2000 embraces controversies around the exhibition: 'Enforced Roads. Escapes and Expulsions in 20th Century Europe' opened in August 2006 that commemorates the victims of expulsions. The article analyses the press debate around this exhibition in the context of the earlier stages of this controversy. It also describes the changes of relations between the main standpoints and their influence on the ideas of the past.

The article attempts to explain the phenomenon of the return, after decades of collective amnesia, of the memory of Podlasie Jews to the public life of the citizens of this province. This 'return of memory' can be seen in many spheres of life of the local communities and regional society: from school curricula, through festivals, official celebrations, to turning the rich Jewish past of the region into a tourist attraction. What makes this phenomenon very interesting is the fact that the 'natural subjects' of this memory - Podlasie Jews - almost do not exist here. There is no Jewish community or Jewish social, cultural or religious life in the region anymore, and in the majority of cases the 'memory revival' is only possible thanks to the efforts of the non-Jewish activists and organizations. Why is the region facing the return of the past of Podlasie Jews now - almost two decades after the democratic change in Poland? The author suggests several factors, which are, among others: the democratization of the Polish society combined with the pluralization of the paths of remembering, the changes of Poles' self-perception, the revival of interest in the local past, the changes of school curricula to more open and multicultural narratives, the generational change and the intensification of contacts between Podlasie inhabitants and the Jewish Diaspora. All these have made it possible that more and more often the local Jews who lived here for centuries are, like in the research being done by the author, referred to as 'Our Jews', the folks.

The article brings back to our memory the ideas of agrarism and the fates of political formation that tried to introduce these ideas into the public and political life of Poland after the Second World War. However, the ideas of agrarism and the political formation implementing its goals and values suffered a defeat in the clash with the doctrine binding in People's Poland. The author describes the way in which this important experience of Polish peasants was erased from the tradition and memory of the Polish nation. She points to the intentional character of the discontinuation of agraristic tradition and the role played in this process by reprisals of the Stalinist period. She shows the contemporary, complex consequences of the ennoblement of socialist solutions and the social costs of the marginalization of democratic, solidary solutions of agrarism that lost in 1947.
