Gesellschaftspsychologie Einer Revolution: Die 'solidarnosc' Als Massenbewegung, Ihre Niederlage Wahrend Des Kriegsrechts, Und Wie Ihr Mythos Als ... (Oskar-halecki-vorlesung)
Die Oskar-Halecki-Vorlesung 2014 des Leibniz-Instituts fur Geschichte und Kultur des ostlichen Europa (GWZO) widmet sich dem politischen und erinnerungskulturellen Vermachtnis der Gewerkschaft Solidarnosc in Polen. Der neoliberale Transformationskurs von fuhrenden Mitgliedern der Solidarnosc der 1990er Jahre wird den ursprunglichen politischen und gesellschaftlichen Zielsetzungen der oppositionellen Massenbewegung von 1980-1981 gegenubergestellt. Der Text ist ein starkes Pladoyer fur soziale Gerechtigkeit und dokumentiert die zeithistorische Perspektive eines der Vorkampfer der politischen Opposition gegen die Polnische Vereinigte Arbeiterpartei und spateren Kritikers des nach der Wende eingeschlagenen Reformwegs.
