Abstract:
Discusses causes of the antisemitic disturbances in the beginning of the 1930s in Poland, such as the economic crisis which exacerbated social conflicts and the political struggle of the Endecja camp against Piłsudski's rule. The demagogic campaign of the National Democrats used antisemitic slogans as a political tool, and presented the ruling cadres as influenced by Jewish circles and therefore harmful for Poland. Presents three documents on pp. 79-92: two are interpellations of Jewish and non-Jewish parliament members (Izaak Gruenbaum and others) to Janusz Jędrzejowicz, Minister of Religions, and to Bronisław Pieracki, Minister of the Interior. The interpellations describe violent acts organized by Endecja students at Warsaw University and demand firm action against these disturbances. The third document is a response by Jędrzejowicz. The documents are in the Archives for New Documents (Archiwum Akt Nowych) in Warsaw.
