The paper addresses aspects of the language of the Polish diaspora and of the standard language, as forms of language spoken by Poles living abroad. The standard language is/should be common for all Poles – used everywhere and by everyone in the same way. The Polish diaspora language, on the other hand, appears only in specific territories and is used for communication in specific groups of Poles. It differs depending on the country where they settled and on the language it comes into contact with, as well as on the diversity of the emi-grants, and also depending on the Polish they brought from their home coun-try (either them themselves or their parents). Although the terms “Polonia” [Polish diaspora] and “język polonijny” [Polish diaspora language] are com-monly used, one should be aware that the latter are actually numerous.

The presence of an extensive number of Polish immigrants in Ireland has a short history, which began after Poland’s accession to the EU. Therefore, the organizations that have been set up since 2004 were to a high degree built up with no or little impact of the existing tradition of immigrant structures and institutions. This makes Ireland a specific laboratory for testing a new model of immigrants’ organization of the 21st century. The article aims to describe the development of Polish immigrant organizations in Ireland and to present their characteristics, including their goals, activities, the role of new media and technology, as well as the patterns of participation and communication. The detailed presentation of these characteristics and case studies serves the goal of answering the question: if and to what extent “young” Polish immigrant organizations in Ireland can be seen as the forerunners of a new model of immigrants’ organization of the 21st century.

The author discusses the unique nature of Polish emigrations in the multifarious migratory history of the European West, and the presence of the Polish diaspora in Western societies. He sees the key to understanding that uniqueness in the extension of research into the ethnic traits and the shaping of Poland, and its present form, so distinct from other, essentially Germanic, states of Western Europe. He finds also that studies on the Poles abroad and the Polish diaspora in the communities of the European West enhance our knowledge of the present state of Western civilisation

The present paper is devoted to a small community of Polish descent settled in Chapadão, located in the State of Santa Catarina, in the south of Brazil. The area of research involved personal encounters, talks and interviews conducted in Chapadão from 2008 to 2010. Additionally, surveys were carried out via electronic mailings with residents of that area. The surveys inquired about the history of Brazil, the Polish immigration scattered throughout the country and the specific problems of the contemporary Brazilian society. The main part of the study focuses on issues currently dealt with by the people of Polish origin settled at this specific part of the Brazilian inland. The specific issues raised in this section comprise: the history of the community as it is held in its collective memory, the maintenance of ancestral traditions (folk style of clothes, music and cooking, religious rites, etc.), the community’s economic expansion (based on some statistical data, as well) and some peculiar traits of the Polish language spoken in Chapadão. The study accounts for how such small and seemingly forgotten Polish communities, living in peripheral areas, succeed in preserving spiritual links with their country of origin, even in the era of the world’s becoming a global village.

Radek Knapp (1964-) is a Polish-Austrian writer who addresses the issue of immigrants living in Vienna in his works. In his books, he tries to answer the question about the identity of the newcomers and the interaction they enter into with the local population. In the last novel from 2020, Knapp presents Vienna as seen through the eyes of a Polish immigrant. It is an environment that is not easy to enter. However, it is possible. The way to this leads through functioning in Viennese everyday life, primarily through professional activity and knowledge of the German language, including the Viennese dialect.

Based in London from 1940, Tymon Terlecki (1905–2000) is seen as the architect or codifier of the Polish émigré ethos, and his writings were duly banned in communist Poland. „Emigracja” for Terlecki was essentially an act of faith, rebellious and aspiring to a dizerent reality. Its duty was to engage in the struggle for Poland’s political and cultural independence, and a literature unshackled by Marxist ideology. He also stressed the need to work together with the oppressed nations of central and East Europe, to ensure the integration of central-east Europe with Europe and its Christian heritage. Terlecki had formulated the main points of his political „brief ” before the rst issue of „Kultura” appeared in Rome in 1947. Highlighting the relevance of Adam Mickiewicz’s political journalism to the post-1945 situation, Terlecki was critical of émigré government-in-exile, and what he perceived as their delusional notions, lack of political acumen, and failure to invest in culture. Not wishing to be a passive observer, he joined the new émigré Polish Freedom Movement „Niepodległość i Demokracja” („Independence and Democracy”). Neither doctrinaire nor dogmatic, capitalist nor Marxist, their „Karta Wolnego Polaka” or „Little Grey Book”, sets out basic principles for a democratic post-war Poland. Following the Thaw, Terlecki distanced himself from émigré politics, which he felt had degenerated into ambition-driven politicizing. Collected and published posthumously as Emigracja naszego czasu (Lublin, 2003), his political essays amount to some 40 in all, a small fraction of his literary output.

The aim of the article is to present the problems of emigration from Poland to Germany in the historical context and in the context of the changes that have taken place in both coun-tries. The paper presents the opinions of people who emigrated to West Germany and obtained the Aussiedler status, about the changes that have taken place in Germany since they decided to emigrate there from Poland. The article attempts to present, as the main problem, the fate and opinions of the indi-viduals in this group, the reasons for their migration, their first encounter with the FRG and their opinion about the decision to migrate. In the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, the possibility of emigrating to West Germany from the Polish People’s Republic was the dream of many Polish citizens. The migration was accompanied by great expectations and hopes that not all migrants have managed to fulfill. As in every migration process, there have been winners and losers. The reality of German capitalism, language barriers and unemployment were the most frequent problems encountered by the emigrants. The paper is based on various qualitative research methods, especially on interviews with people who migrated to the Federal Republic of Germany between 1970 and 2000 and obtained the Aussiedler status there. The problem of this migration has not yet been the sub-ject of an in-depth study in Poland.

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 liter-ary 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 per-sonal happiness and want a normal life among those who accept and love them.

Polish mining immigration to Belgium between 1918 and 1939 is a significant, yet overlooked phenomenon. Despite difficult circumstances, Polish miners did not constitute a socially radical group. In fact, we witness quite opposite attitudes: focusing on honest work, religion and family. To understand this situation, we need to reconstruct various factors that influenced Polish miners in Belgium. An analysis led to dividing these factors into two categories: destabilising and stabilising. The former are rapid migration dynamics, blocked social advancement and communist activity. The latter I found in the presence of old mining societies and — most importantly — Polish diaspora’s concentration, which slowed down the assimilation and also dispersion processes. Overall, Belgium was not treated as a necessary evil and after many years the province of Limburg was still called the “Belgian Silesia”.

The purpose of writing this article is to present two legal solutions, of a great value from the national and European perspective: the Schengen Area and the Polish Card. Both of these instruments operate in parallel in internal and international legal orders. What appears important here is their legal relation for the Polish citizens moving within the European Union. The relations between those two institutions are not sufficiently analysed, which might raise doubts among Poles and people of the Polish origin, or representatives of public administration. The Polish Card (also called the Polish Charter), being the latest instrument of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was issued in 2007. It provides legal assistance to the Polish diaspora in Eastern Europe, while the Schengen Agreement from 1985 relates to migration processes in the majority of Western European countries. One cannot miss the rising dependence of the European Union on its neighbours, as well as increase in migration needs in modern Europe.

The subject of the submitted article was a high-profile court case against the Polish linguist and columnist Jan Baudouin de Courtenay for publishing in 1913 the brochure Natsional’nyi I territorial’nyi priznak v avtonomii. Only few works have been published that fully and thoroughly expose this event from the life of a Polish-Russian scholar. The source material that I collected and developed allowed me to present the lawsuit, the trial and imprisoment of Jan Baudouin de Courtenay from the perspective of his family life (which is a novelty in previous studies). The analyzed research material consisted primarily of private documents of the Baudouin de Courtenay family, most importantly so called „Diary for the family” by Romualda Baudouin de Courtenay (the manuscript is in the Archives of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw) and letters from Jan Baudouin de Courtenay to other Polish linguists. The source material also allowed me to sketch the socio-cultural background of the era, showing the activity of the St. Petersburg Polonia on the eve of the outbreak of the First War and in its first year.

The Catholic church in Poland undertook steps to provide optimal pastoral care for the Polish people abroad. These activities were formalized through the creation of the Polish Catholic Missions. The first Polish Catholic Mission was created in France (1922), next one in January 1926 in Belgium. This mission extended its power over Denmark, Holland (1927). The priests who successively held the office of Rector of the Polish Catholic Missions: T. Kotowski, W. Kudłacik and R. Moskwa organized pastoral, cultural, educational life among the Polish people and left, in the form of statements and reports, the descriptions of the condition and situation of the Polish emigrants abroad.

The establishing of the „Polish Catholic Mission in France” on 13 May 1922 gave way to the cooperation and agreement aimed at guaranteeing hundreds of thousands of Polish community in this country proper religious care. In France, all the bishops who had a larger number of emigrants in their diocese were supposed to coordinate their efforts to provide those people with pastoral care. However, as stated by one of the priests, Polish Mission had no legal basis, the reason for its existence was based on a rather problematic agreement between Cardinal Dalbor and Cardinal Dubois, the Archbishop of Paris. Hence, it was not often possible to avoid the tendencies of French Bishops, who were sometimes unfavorably inclined towards national spirit of the Polish emigration. Some French bishops declared their intentions openly in the decree of Bishop Chaptal. Although this circular letter referred to all foreign nations, because of the largest number of Poles in France it was primarily important for the Poles. The presented document exemplifi es Polish priests attempting to stop the process of denationalization of their countrymen - silent scream.

Millions of Poles living outside of their native lands, that is members of Polish diaspora, were recognized by the Polish authorities as a reservoir of strong support for the homeland. The Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs conducted activities aimed at turning them into a useful tool in the hands of the government. Polish diaspora, mainly understood as Poles permanently living abroad, formed the basis for Polish intelligence activities in the interwar period. An analysis of selected intelligence networks and agents’ nationalities may lead to such a conclusion. This phenomenon applied not only to “small fries” in the intelligence cycle, that is thousands of people gathering meaningless information, but also to the most prominent agents, who – although less often – were of Polish origin.

Wielomilionowa Polonia była uznawana przez władze Polski za rezerwuar wsparcia dla kraju. Ministerstwo Spraw Zagranicznych prowadziło działania mające uczynić z niej narzędzie rządu. Polonia, rozumiana jako Polacy na stałe przebywający za granicą, była w dwudziestoleciu międzywojennym podstawą działań wywiadu polskiego. Do takiego wniosku prowadzi analiza wybranych siatek wywiadowczych i narodowości agentów. Nie dotyczyło to wyłącznie „agenturalnej drobnicy”, owych tysięcy osób zbierających drobne wiadomości. Również najważniejsi agenci – choć rzadziej – byli z pochodzenia Polakami.

Artykuł analizuje zjawisko partycypacji wyborczej obywateli rezydujących za granicą w wyborach krajowych, które mają miejsce w państwie pochodzenia. Autorka przedstawia analizę porównawczą danych z wyborów parlamentarnych i prezydenckich w Polsce z okresu dwóch ostatnich dekad (1990–2011) oraz do Parlamentu Europejskiego (2004–2011). Widoczny wzrost partycypacji wyborczej Polaków mieszkających poza krajem jest niewątpliwie wynikiem zwiększenia się ich liczby w wyniku fali emigracji, jaka nastąpiła po wejściu Polski do EU w 2004 roku. Wpływ miały także wprowadzone zmiany prawne i instytucjonalne w systemie organizacji wyborów za granicą oraz fakt, że Polacy za granicą stali się przedmiotem zainteresowania mediów oraz grupą docelową dla partii politycznych w okresie kampanii wyborczych.

The article presents the phenomenon of external voting: participation of citizens residing abroad in elections that take place in country of origin. Author offers the comparative analysis of data from parliamentary and presidential elections over last two decades (1990 – 2011) and elections to European Parliament (2004 – 2014) that took place in Poland. The noticeable increase in number of votes from abroad is the result of the growing stock of Poles residing abroad since Poland’s accession to the EU in 2004, the legal and institutional changes towards simplifying voting procedures, but also the consequence of the fact that emigration of Poles became an issue of media interest and target group for political parties during the electoral campaigns.
