▼ This thesis investigates the relationship between the Capital Account Liberalization (CAL) process and changes in productivity in light of theoretical and empirical studies. It also presents a significant investigation into the nature and evolution of the capital control process, through a cross-country analysis and individual country analysis of Poland during the 1990s and the beginning of the 2000s. In addition, this thesis analyses the determinants of capital controls in the cross-countries analysis. Then, this thesis presents a profile of the Polish productivity distribution across manufacturing sectors, structure and level of the capital control process and sector characteristics, and an analysis of how these have changed over time. The empirical results are derived through an application of the best practices and techniques of productivity estimation on sector level data. Chapter 1 provides the description of key reforms in Poland and the structure of these thesis. Chapter 2, discusses strengths and weaknesses of various CAL measures and presents different trends of CAL measures. Chapter 3 employs selected CAL measures in a cross-county analysis, investigating the determinants of the CAL process. Chapter 4 analyses the trends of productivity in Poland. Chapter 5 analyses the CAL effect on manufacturing sector productivity by including sector financial dependence, sector investment and trade openness, and then compares this results with sectoral proxy for CAL measures. Chapter 6 concludes by discussing the results and provides a possible avenue for further research.

▼ The main aim of this thesis is to add to the understanding of how religion interacts with politics in modern Europe. It discusses the largely under-researched relationship between Euroscepticism and religion and argues that despite the theory of secularisation, which assumes an ever-increasing marginalisation of the role of religion in the public sphere, religious beliefs still play an important role in the world of politics. This study firstly analyses the phenomenon of political Catholicism, providing a concise definition and identifying the primary and secondary features of this movement. Secondly, it discusses how, under certain circumstances, political Catholicism, which in general is a movement that strongly supported European integration, can adopt a Eurosceptic stance. Empirically, this study focuses on the case of Poland, but places the results in the context of 15 other European countries. It analyses primary data gathered through documentary research (party manifestos, public statements, Church documents) and a number of interviews with party members. Additional information was collected from interviews with journalists, an expert survey and secondary literature in the field of EU studies and religion and politics. The key argument of this thesis is that Polish political Catholicism is a distinct phenomenon in Europe because of its markedly visible Euroscepticism. Its opposition to Europe stems from an intrinsic feature of the movement, namely its Catholic-nationalist nature. This attribute developed as a result of Polish history, characterised by long periods of struggle for independence from alien forces, whereby belonging to Catholicism gradually became an essential element of belonging to the Polish nation, helping to define the 'Us' vs. the 'Other'. Consequently, Polish political Catholicism started perceiving the EU as an organisation based on 'alien', secular values, which could endanger Polish national identity, Polish society and ultimately the state. In broader terms, this study contributes to the general discussion on the causality of party-based Euroscepticism. It also provides a comparative outlook on political Catholicism in Europe, arguing that there is a gap between Western and Central and Eastern European strands of this movement, resulting mainly from different historical circumstances in which the movement developed in both regions.

▼ This thesis focuses on photographs from the Black Star Collection by photojournalist Chris Niedenthal, who did freelance assignments in
Poland for Newsweek, Time Magazine, and Der Spiegel during the 1970s and 1980s. By looking closely at Niedenthal’s work, this thesis explores how these photographs respond to and engage with the rising tension in the People’s Republic of
Poland (PRL) between the years 1978 -1982. The purpose of this investigation is to study the techniques Niedenthal devised to photograph
Poland during a volatile time. Through a comparative analysis of selected images from the Black Star Collection, this thesis considers two phases of Niedenthal’s work in
Poland, and examines both the way Chris Niedenthal’s photography attempts to negotiate the restrictions imposed by a totalitarian political system that sought to control its self-image, and how his approach to photography adapted to the rise of the Solidarity Trade Union and imposition of Martial Law in
Poland.

Gender Equity and Fertility in European Below-Replacement Fertility Countries: Poland and Estonia.
Degree: PhD, Sociology, 2012, Texas A&M University

▼ Much of the recent scholarly attention has been devoted to the low fertility situation experienced by a growing number of developed countries. In this context, the theoretical framework explicitly incorporating the issues of gender in explanations of low fertility has been gaining notable popularity.
This dissertation is focused primarily on the application of McDonald's theory of gender equity to the fertility context of two post-communist "low" and "very low" fertility countries, namely
Poland and Estonia. Additionally, it tests the relative importance of gender equity at the societal level and the level of the family, contrasts the results of using different operationalizations of gender equity in the family, and compares the effects of gender equity on male and female fertility.
I estimate two sex-specific models for
Poland and two-sex specific models for Estonia, which respectively use three and two independent variables capturing gender equity in different institutions as well as in the family. All the models use intended fertility as the dependent variable operationalized as either the intention to have the second or higher order birth or the number of additional children intended.
The main findings of this dissertation support the gendered explanation of low fertility in
Poland and Estonia. More specifically, they indicate that gender equity in the family significantly increases fertility intentions of Polish men and women and Estonian women but not men. However, in none of the models there is evidence that gender equity in institutions outside the family matters to fertility. All in all, the findings support the gendered approach to fertility.
The results of my dissertation indicate that it is important to pay attention to how we measure gender equity. I observe some variation in the findings depending on how stringent definition of equity is used. Finally, my research suggests that the importance of gender equity for women's fertility might be more universal but it is also not completely irrelevant to the fertility of men.
I conclude this dissertation with a discussion of the implications of my findings and the potential for future development of research in this area.

▼ A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Masters Degree in Management from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics.
Internationalization has become a crucial process for the survival and growth of firms in general so that, this thesis presents an internationalization plan through a franchising strategy for Cofemel. It is a clothing company creator of the brand Tiffosi in 1978. Its main activity is to manufacture and trade exterior apparel, which includes the common clothing, such as: trousers, shirts, jeans, sweaters, dresses and accessories.
Since Cofemel opened its first Tiffosi´s store, the brand started to grow fast. But, contrary of what seemed a good performance in 2008, the firm was near the bankrupt mostly because it was a family´s business where members were poorly prepared exercising executive and strategic positions. The strategy and objectives were not clear for a long period before 2008 so that it lead the company to have 29 millions of sales but a negative net income of 6 million euros in that year. VNC Group – a group led by António Vila Nova – in 2008 decided to buy Cofemel in that situation and thanks to his long experience in this market he was able to restructure the company totally and turn it into a competitive and sustainable firm. In 2009, the results became positives and Cofemel with its brand Tiffosi started to growth strategically on the market, establishing objectives for the future. Therefore, it emerged the opportunity to expand to Poland and the entry mode was chosen using an analysis of various available hypotheses and a market study. It also presents an implementation plan with duration of two years.

▼ This creative non-fiction project explores belonging as a concept that binds two narrators, a mother and daughter – both on journeys, both torn – though what each wants to belong to becomes part of their individual exploration. The daughter's narrative hungers for her mother's sense of home, and in the process, her own. The mother's narrative actualizes rupture. The mother, not only speaks of the past, but embodies history. She is
Poland. The immigrant lives in two worlds. The first is imbued in the materiality of the everyday, a locality more than a "home." The second is in the imagination and the dense layers of dreams, the place where the "home" resides. To emphasize the in-between, the book vacillates between these two voices, which impress and bleed into one another to destabilize the concept of personal narratives and bring attention to the gossamer space in identity formation, language learning and historical constructs.

▼ This thesis is concerned with the relationship between nationness and subjectivity, and is based on nine months' ethnographic fieldwork in Poland. It pursues two main arguments: first, that postmodern ethnography should not only treat ethnographies as texts, but must also involve radical psychoanalytic questioning of the ethnographer as text; and secondly, that the modern occurrence of the nation and national identity can be explained by linking a Foucauldian epistemological analysis of the historical development of nation-ness to a Lacanian model of subjectivity. Chapter One comprises an autobiographical narrative about my interpretations of Poland in the 1980s. This exemplifies the argument in Chapter Two that post-modern ethnography should not only interrogate the temporal and historical assumptions of ethnographic texts, analyse their rhetoric, and foreground autobiographical material, but should also analyse the narratives of the ethnographer, reflecting rigorously on such factors in personal terms by drawing on psychoanalytic experience. Chapter Three provides an ethnographic account of Polish national identity in the mid-1990s, and is presented as a point of comparison with Chapter One in an attempt to avoid the impression of cultural stasis often otherwise created in synchronic approaches. In Chapter Four, I argue that macro- and micro- political approachesto nation-ness can usefully be integrated by articulating Foucault's epistemological analysis of culture with Lacan's structuralist analysis of the subject, and ask why nation-ness is a relatively modern phenomenon, and how and why subjects acquire national identity. In Chapter Five, I return to the key themes of the thesis and to two of its central metaphors - the Copernican Revolution and the Royal Castle in Warsaw - to suggest parallels between the construction and reconstruction of national, subjective, and ethnographic narratives, and to analyse why the relationship between these phenomena is currently undergoing change.

▼ The purpose of this study is to examine contemporary Polish education in the context of socioeconomic development. Among the topics treated are equal educational opportunity, the village school and the quality of vocational education. It is concluded that the Polish educational system has not kept pace with recent socio-economic changes. Finally, an assessment is made of the 1973 school reform and its attempt to remedy some of the shortcomings of the educational system.
L'intention de cette étude est d'examiner les aspects actuels du système d'éducation polonais dans le contexte du développement socio-économique. Parmis les sujets traités, il y a l'éducation pour tous, les écoles rurales et la qualité des écoles techniques. Il a été démontré que le système d'éducation dans ce pays ressentait un ralentissement par rapport aux changements socio-économiques récents. L'étude se termine en offrant une appréciation sur la tentative de réforme scolaire faite en 1973, pour remédier aux lacunes dans ce système.

▼ By focusing on the unique forces that shape women’s movements in the post-communist context, this dissertation asks if the established geopolitical and theoretical frameworks, based on dichotomies between East and West, South and North can be utilized outside these locations. Or is a new framework necessary to fully understand the specific processes that are at work in the ambiguous “Second” World location? Chapter One, traces the individual and collective trajectories of Polish women’s movement to the 19th century anti-partition mobilizations, the Second World War, the 1968 students’ liberation movement, the “Solidarity” labor union, and the 1990s Polish debate on abortion. Chapter Two identifies two elements as crucial for the unique development of transnational activism in the context of CEE: 1) its trajectory (“late” arrival into the international feminist space) and 2) the domination and critique of the EU “gender mainstreaming” paradigm within gender social justice discourses. Chapter Three recognizes the 1990s “abortion debate” became in impulse for the feminisms to move beyond the borders of the conservative nation state and bring the question of women’s sexual rights into the supranational political spaces and became a momentum for the emergence of versatile, vibrant mobilizations for gender and sexual justice in Poland and (e.g. European Court of Justice decision in the case of Alicja Tysiac against the Polish state). Chapter Four argues that secularism that had become, a necessary feminist response to violent and oppressive discourses that act to restrict women’s sexualities and rights, has also hindered feminist connectivity with religious women. In Poland a purification of the sexuality, emergence of the “political Catholicism” and “secular feminism” produced the subaltern, traveling identities of Catholic feminists. Chapter Five examines re-appropriation of the Anti-Semitic language of civic strangeness, historically represented by Polish Jews to the experience of sexual minorities. In conclusion this dissertation delineates two factors as decisive for current positionality of the “Second” world in the transnational feminist theory and practice: the rejection of Marxism as representing the colonial practices from the East (Russia, Soviet Union), the priotization of the supranational engagements with the European Union and Western Europe rather then Third World.

▼ Summary
This research tries to analyze the landscape of the Polish region around Jelenia Góra with use of a model designed by Dean S. Rugg. This model divides the history of the region in several periods and analyses which changes are made in the landscape during the different periods of time.
The research question is “How has the landscape of Jelenia Góra been developing according to the layer model of Rugg, which layers are visible and which role does the post-communist layer play in the current development of the region?”
The goal of the research is to construct this “post-communist” layer, and to connect use the changes in the landscape as an explanation of what the influence of the European Union is in this region. To get to the newest layer, one must have some understanding of the history of the region. The first history discussed in this research is the Slavic period. Visible in the landscape through castle ruins, stone walls and through mythical character, this period forms the Slavic base on which the current Polish culture is formed.
The second layer is the layer of colonization and feudalism. Jelenia Góra was conquered by different kingdoms and rulers. It became Bohemian, Austrians, Prussian and German. Al these rulers and foreign domination has left its marks in the landscape. In this layer, the upcoming of small industries (mining, glass production), deforestation and agriculture has left the most important relics in the landscape.
After World War II the region became Polish again. Under the communist Polish government, there were no investments made in the region and it became a backward region. The communist policy destroyed touristic development, and the agriculture also diminished.
When the Berlin Wall disappeared in 1989 and the Soviet-Union came to an end in 1991,
Poland turned towards Europe. This resulted in Polish European Union membership in 2004.
The most important changes in this post-communist landscape are seen in the disappearance of the last remaining farmers. Next to that there are lots of infrastructural and renovation projects running. Also, tourism is redeveloping in the region. Supported by the Euregion Nysa, touristic development is getting ahead.
On the other side, the European free market also attracts mining companies to the resourceful region of Jelenia Góra. Uranium, leucite, cobalt, gold, basalt are some of the minerals that can be found in the soil. The mining activities however, are completely irreconcilable with the development of tourism.
Also in the invisible landscape, Europe has its impact. Lots of projects that are seen as profitable for the local inhabitants, miss their effect on micro scale. People do not have enough money to finance their connection to the new built sewage, or to remove asbestos from their rooftops. Also, the changes in the European Agriculture (marketprices, hygiene protocols) have made it near impossible for the farmers to keep their businesses running. As a result, the last farmers are leaving the region, increasing unemployment rates in…

▼ This thesis is a study of the English Catholic journal, the Tablet, and the way in which the concept of human rights was presented and developed in its reporting on Poland from 1978-1983. The analysis is undertaken through a study of the language related to human rights in the relevant editorials and articles published in the period. The method used to analyse the primary material makes use of rhetorical theories of Kenneth Burke, specifically his theory of dramatism. The main analysis is contextualised by studies of the various aspects which help to construct the journal's world view politically, with emphasis on its understanding of human rights, and the nature of its intended audience. The relevant political background in Britain and Poland is examined, as is contemporary rhetoric on human rights emanating from the Catholic Church and the West, which attest to the relevance of the topic. The research question asked by the paper is, 'In what way and to what end are human rights discussed politically in the Tablet in relation to Poland between 1978 and 1983?' The thesis concludes that the Tablet uses the language of rights to promote a certain political agenda and that it describes different groups in terms of rights in different ways in order to influence the political opinions of its readers. The language of rights is specifically used to legitimise the political actions of the Catholic Church, and to positively promote a specifically Catholic ideology in which the Church is very closely associated with the idea of rights. By opposition, it is used to attack the communist government of Poland, and by extension the communist political system as a whole. The language of rights is used to affect reader's opinions about power relations and authority. The thesis ends by asserting that through its use as a legitimising agent, the notion of rights has to a degree lost its specific meaning, and become a term which simplifies the reports in which it is contained through associations made by the reader.

▼ The major question of this study is: what explains Poland’s transition to democracy and capitalism in 1989-1990? In answering this question, this study identifies three major factors. The first factor is Poland’s economic and political crisis that had accumulated since the consolidation of Communist rule in Poland after World War II and led to the emergence of one of the largest mass movement in Eastern Europe, Solidarność. The second factor is ideational change, which is associated with every economic and political crisis, and its gradual transformative power in Poland from 1945. The third factor is the political transition that resulted from the ‘roundtable’ agreements and led to the rise of Solidarność to political power. The study uses historical analysis to study Poland’s political and economic developments from the time of partition and traces the major critical turning events and their influnce on the trajectory of institutional changes.

▼ L’objectif de notre thèse de doctorat est d’analyser les commissions d’historiens dans les processus de rapprochement en Pologne. Deux cas d’étude sont privilégiés : la commission polono-allemande sur les manuels scolaires et le groupe polono-russe sur les questions difficiles. Ce travail se base sur deux sources principales : une série d’entretiens et des recherches dans les archives. A ce corpuss’ajoutent des sources complémentaires : observations participantes et analyse de discours politiques, de sondages et de la presse.Les points de vue de part et d’autre divergent, voire s’opposent. Les historiens cherchent alors, selon Ricoeur, un récit qui peut favoriser le rapprochement. Ce dialogue sur l’histoire correspond tout à fait à ce qui est demandé aux commissions d’historiens. Dès lors, pourquoi ces commissions ont-elles été créées ? Comment fonctionnent-elles et pourquoi continuent-elles de fonctionner ? Nous formons les hypothèses que, premièrement, ces commissions ont été créées dans un objectif de rapprochement, voire de réconciliation. Deuxièmement, leur fonctionnement — et sa prolongation— dépend de trois variables : le contexte, les mandats, les acteurs.Notre thèse s’articule en cinq points. Les trois premières parties portent sur chacune des trois variables évoquées : contexte, mandats, acteurs. La quatrième partie porte sur les sphères d’influence de ces commissions et les débats qu’elles engendrent : politique et religion, débats publics, débats scientifiques. La dernière partie se concentre sur les projets de ces commissions :l’ouvrage commun ou les centres de dialogue du côté polono-russe, le manuel commun d’histoire du côté polono-allemand.
The objective of my PhD thesis is to analyse historical commissions in the processes of rapprochement in Poland. Two cases studies are selected: the Polish-German school book commission and the Polish-Russian group for difficult matters. This work relies on two main sources:a series of interviews and research conducted in the archives. Other sources are complementary to this main corpus: participatory observations, analysis of political discourses, opinion polls and themedia.From one part to another, the points of view differ, or even oppose themselves. Historians then lookfor, according to Ricoeur, a narrative which could favour rapprochement. This dialogue on history matches exactly with what is asked for the historical commissions. Then, why are these commissions created ? how do they work and why do they continue to function ? The first hypothesis assumes that these commissions are created in an objective of rapprochement, or even reconciliation. The second one assumes that their functioning – and its continuation – depends on three variables:context, mandates, actors. My thesis is structured on five points. The first three parts concern each of the three variables cited:context, mandates, actors. The fourth part relates to the spheres of influence of the commissions and the debates they induce: politics and religion, public debate, scientific debate. The…

▼ In the two years 1989-1991 the environment of
Poland's telecommunications was fundamentally transformed. This dissertation is an exploratory case study addressing four principal aspects of that country's changing telecommunications: (1) telecommunication regime or the structure of rules in which telecommunication systems function; (2) telecommunication services, defined as the means and methods of communicating from a distance by processing and relaying an electro-magnetic signal (categorized into telephone, mobile, data-messaging, information, data-carrier, and entertainment); (3) telecommunication equipment, or markets for switching, transmission and terminal equipment; and (4) telecommunication subscribers, or principal characteristics of the customer-base in the residential, professional, rural and urban market segments. Each aspect is examined for the purpose of capturing the on-going change. The dissertation identifies the principal agents of change and maps the new conditions onto the models developed by Cowhey and Aronson. Institutional pluralism, market competition, shortage alleviation and market restructuring have transformed
Poland's telecommunication environment from the scarcity model to a version of the boutique model.

Remembering the Holocaust and the Jewish Past in Kraków,

▼ This thesis examines the ways in which the
Holocaust and the Jewish past have been remembered in Kraków,
investigates the impact local memory work has had on Polish
collective memory, and problematises the importance of the 1989
threshold for that memory work. Looking at Kraków, an exceptional
and exceptionally important case study, between 1980 and 2013, the
thesis investigates heritage creations in Kazimierz, the old Jewish
Town, and traces the genealogies of Holocaust exhibitions presented
in Kraków. It also traces the emergence of urban critical
narratives about the past, pertaining both to the city and to
Poland as a whole. Created in opposition to the mainstream
ethno-nationalist narrative, which was often supported by both the
Communist and the democratic governments, the interpretation of the
past laid out in Kraków gradually incorporated the Jewish past into
the narrative on Polish history. The thesis demonstrates how, over
the course of thirty years, Jews came to be presented as rightful
members of the Polish national community, and the Holocaust as an
integral part of Polish war history, albeit still distinct to other
sufferings.At the forefront of the process of excavating and
presenting Kraków’s Jewish past were local memory activists. In
particular, this thesis highlights the pivotal role played by
mid-ranking officials from municipal administration and by fictive
kinships in the process of urbanisation of memory. These
individuals and groups translated the ideas of critical engagement
with the nation’s history, propagated by some sections of the
national elite, into a form that could be consumed by a mass
audience. In addition, the thesis demonstrates that memory work on
a local level persisted almost uninterrupted through the transition
to democracy. Activists responsible for the creation of inclusive
narratives in the 1980s, and the Krakowian intelligentsia in
general, carried those ideas forward through the collapse of
Communism – no radical reformulation of representations of the
Jewish past or the Holocaust took place in the early 1990s. The
local narratives grew progressively more critical and increasingly
more cosmopolitan from the 1980s onward, but this process only
truly accelerated after 2010. The present thesis argues that this
post-2010 intensification was only possible after local activists
had embraced new forms of commemoration and new modes of
authentication within museum exhibitions. In particular it points
toward the espousal of ‘complementary authenticities,’ a mode of
authentication of narratives strongly anchored in history that at
the same time aimed to incite an emotional response. This
incorporation of ‘complementary authenticities’ allowed for the
creation of narratives that sensitised audiences to the suffering
of Poles regardless of their ethnic background. Thus the thesis
relates the developments of memory work in Kraków to broader
changes in culture, rather than solely to changes in political
life.

▼ This thesis will use qualitative research methods in order to bridge the gap between the Post-Soviet and the Postcolonial studies. Over the past years Postcolonial literature began dominating Universities across the world. The theories presented by Postcolonial scholars are gaining more legitimacy in the international arena, providing an insight into the identity crisis experienced by the global society. This piece will analyse the two main concepts presented by Postcolonial scholars: the Empire and Modernity. The concepts will be examined in the light of Post-Soviet literature. The interrelation of Postcolonial theory with the narrative on Soviet dominance in Eastern Europe will unveil the extent to which U.S.S.R can be considered as a colonial Empire. The Soviet rule did not only have the negative consequences on the material and social infrastructure of Eastern European nations, the colonial power has also contributed to the creation of a stereotype of “Eastern bloc” and the belief in a clear cut divide of Europe, which also is referred as the “Iron Curtain”. Such stereotypes still inhabit the imagination of many across the world. Nevertheless such conception of Eastern Europe is inaccurate as portrayed by the comparison of the historical narratives from Romania and
Poland in the later part of the thesis. The article will conclude with the manner in which these stereotypes have been resisted within and outside of the Eastern side of the “Iron Curtain””.

▼ This thesis explores post-socialist cultural practices, globalization, and conceptions of modernity through the lens of food. Socialist influence remains visible in Poland’s collective memory, architecture, symbols, political and economic systems, and, as examined in this thesis, foodways. Linking macroeconomic and political upheaval with multigenerational ethnography, this project examines how everyday foodways have transitioned in
Poland post-1989. Under socialism, chronic food shortages prompted Polish cooks to learn “…
jak zrobić coś z niczego” (“…how to make something from nothing”). Ethnography with a typical middle-class Polish family reveals that they have incorporated new ingredients, recipes, and cuisines into their repertoire as the country has become more integrated into the global market. They retain, however, food practices that challenge Western conceptions of modernity, including growing home gardens, home-distilling liqueurs, and reviving regional culinary traditions. Combining ethnographic fieldwork in
Poland with archival research using
Przyjaciółka magazine, I explore perceptions and realities of life in the
Polska Rzeczpospolita Ludowa (Polish People’s Republic) and the increasingly globalized orientation of the current generation.

▼ A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Masters Degree in Management from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics
The objective of this Work Project was to study the profile of Portuguese investor in Poland. My qualitative and quantitative research was performed in order to understand more in detail their insights and their decisions‟ motives. Consequently, I further studied the following questions: “(1) What is the profile of Portuguese investor in Poland? (2) Which are the characteristics that would distinguish the style that defines individuals’ preferences in investments decisions? (3) How to understand the motives of managerial decisions that are undertaken by these investors? (4) What are the contributions of these business decisions to the Polish market? (5) Which advices can be given to Portuguese investors?”
Having all these information, I concluded and named the two strongest components that represent the searched profile characteristics. Analysis of this data gave the understandings of keys to success, motives of choices, achievements of Portuguese companies in Poland and overall searched profile of Portuguese investor in Poland.

▼ The work is an inquiry into ways of comprehending
village life, in order to analyse how these perceptions influence
village inhabitants' social identity. I am interested in how the
local rural community performs and makes sense of the narratives
that relate to their own position today - in the aftermath of
Communism. The focus is on the difficulties and discontinuities
between these concepts and direct experiences. I illustrate and
theorize the ambiguities inherent in my interlocutors' narratives,
showing how these narratives merge to embody a coherent and linear
identity. My main mode of representation is a documentary film,
which brings out the corporeality of the place, providing a
non-textual look at the problem.
I have submitted a documentary film "Horror vacui.
Fear of Emptiness". 36 min., colour, stereo, HD, English
subtitles.

▼ The period between 1944 and 1956, also known as the “Stalinist period”, is one of the most controversial and turbulent in Polish history. The Polish communist party launched the project of restructuring Polish society, whose historically wellestablished national identity seemed incompatible with the communist project. Firstly, the communists effected a demographic change that resulted in a near monoethnic state. Simultaneously, they introduced a centrally planned economy, transformed state symbolism, initiated a national education system, attempted to reshape popular attitudes to religion, and launched a massive propaganda campaign to reinforce and popularize their objectives.
This study seeks to investigate the communists’ attempts to accommodate Polish nationalism, the impact these attempts had on the success of the communist project in Poland and, by implication, the governments’ relationship with Poles and the USSR. By exploring these aspects of the debate, the author discovered that Polish communists, Poles themselves in most cases, struggled to find a balance between their national identity and the communist ideology. In fact, the thesis argues that leaders of the Polish communist government developed a dual identity in their approach to governing Poland: that is, they were primarily nationalists rather than Stalinist communists, but retained some key elements of the ideological and totalitarian framework. As a result, the Polish communist project deviated from the Soviet model and ultimately failed to produce a new and coherent narrative. Crucially, the spread of literacy and education throughout Polish society served to reinforce historic national identity. In 1956, due to popular unrest, the quasitotalitarian Polish state had to abandon Stalinist style rule and effectively the nationalist component from thereon dominated the narrative of the regime.

▼ Although there is consensus on the increasing role of emerging and developing economies in global markets, the literature on the mechanisms contributing to their growth remains still limited. The research aims to contribute to knowledge by exploring and understanding the process of transformation from a centrally planned economy into a market based economy. This transformation process is analysed from the perspective of a Venture Capital industry emerging and developing in Poland. The research focuses on the dynamics of particular factors and their impact on a specific set of stakeholders. In order to take a sufficiently broad contextual view, an organizational theory approach was employed. The Venture Capital industry was treated as a community of organizations which are connected by direct or indirect relationships. The interpretative framework was provided by two leading organizational theories: Institutional theory and Resource Dependence theory. The research is qualitative, and is guided by a specially designed framework for collecting and analysing the data. The primary data were collected though semi structured interviews with Venture Capital industry stakeholders of different types, and with different roles in the process. The research contributes to knowledge at three levels. Firstly, it addresses the literature gap on emergence of the Venture Capital industry in Poland. Secondly, it contributes to an understanding of the process of the emergence of a Venture Capital industry and economic transformation. Thirdly, findings may contribute to policy recommendations formulated to accelerate effective development in financial services.

▼ This thesis examines the ways in which the Holocaust and the Jewish past have been remembered in Kraków, investigates the impact local memory work has had on Polish collective memory, and problematises the importance of the 1989 threshold for that memory work. Looking at Kraków, an exceptional and exceptionally important case study, between 1980 and 2013, the thesis investigates heritage creations in Kazimierz, the old Jewish Town, and traces the genealogies of Holocaust exhibitions presented in Kraków. It also traces the emergence of urban critical narratives about the past, pertaining both to the city and to Poland as a whole. Created in opposition to the mainstream ethno-nationalist narrative, which was often supported by both the Communist and the democratic governments, the interpretation of the past laid out in Kraków gradually incorporated the Jewish past into the narrative on Polish history. The thesis demonstrates how, over the course of thirty years, Jews came to be presented as rightful members of the Polish national community, and the Holocaust as an integral part of Polish war history, albeit still distinct to other sufferings. At the forefront of the process of excavating and presenting Kraków’s Jewish past were local memory activists. In particular, this thesis highlights the pivotal role played by mid-ranking officials from municipal administration and by fictive kinships in the process of urbanisation of memory. These individuals and groups translated the ideas of critical engagement with the nation’s history, propagated by some sections of the national elite, into a form that could be consumed by a mass audience. In addition, the thesis demonstrates that memory work on a local level persisted almost uninterrupted through the transition to democracy. Activists responsible for the creation of inclusive narratives in the 1980s, and the Krakowian intelligentsia in general, carried those ideas forward through the collapse of Communism – no radical reformulation of representations of the Jewish past or the Holocaust took place in the early 1990s. The local narratives grew progressively more critical and increasingly more cosmopolitan from the 1980s onward, but this process only truly accelerated after 2010. The present thesis argues that this post-2010 intensification was only possible after local activists had embraced new forms of commemoration and new modes of authentication within museum exhibitions. In particular it points toward the espousal of ‘complementary authenticities,’ a mode of authentication of narratives strongly anchored in history that at the same time aimed to incite an emotional response. This incorporation of ‘complementary authenticities’ allowed for the creation of narratives that sensitised audiences to the suffering of Poles regardless of their ethnic background. Thus the thesis relates the developments of memory work in Kraków to broader changes in culture, rather than solely to changes in political life.

▼ This dissertation is a historical and analytical study of Karol Szymanowski’s neo-nationalist ballet, Harnasie (1923-31). Early planning for the ballet overlapped with the first years of Poland’s rebirth as a nation after World War I. This historical turning point prompted Szymanowski to embrace a concept that he had earlier rejected: musical nationalism. The finished ballet incorporates highland folklore from the Polish Tatra Mountain region into an intricate neo-nationalist compositional framework. Expanding and correcting previous analyses of the score and its sources, the dissertation correctly identifies the folk songs and folk dances used in Harnasie, and examines how the composer’s attitude towards transcription changed between 1923-1931. Ethnographer Adolf Chybiński’s influence on the ballet is downplayed and Szymanowski’s own handling of primary sources is highlighted. Related subjects include Szymanowski’s refutation of Jan Ignacy Paderewski’s nationalist appropriation of a popular highland bandit melody, and the subtle parallels in the final scene of Harnasie with the apotheosis of Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde.
Although European and American orchestras expressed an interest in performing Harnasie’s music in the early 1930s, the ballet struggled to reach the stage. Szymanowski had worked without a commission, and completed the music without having in hand a complete scenario. As a coda to the analytical discussion, the dissertation describes his desperate efforts to finally see Harnasie staged in Paris.

▼ This work examines European Catholicism¿s response to socialism between 1878 and 1958 through the specific experience of Polish and French thinkers and activists. Central to the interaction between Catholicism and socialism in fin-de-siècle and 20
th-century Europe was the goal of social justice declared by both Catholics and socialists. These two forces thus competed to address what had become popularly known by the second half of the 19
th century as the ¿social question¿: what to do about the growing masses of working poor emerging throughout Europe as a consequence of the Industrial Revolution.
The key figures who emerged within the Catholic universe as capable of making or breaking the Catholic response to the social question were individuals operating at the crossroads of intellectual and sociopolitical activism, from Rev. Wladyslaw Kornilowicz, to Jacques Maritain, to Emmanuel Mounier, to Tadeusz Mazowiecki. What Marxists termed to be the ¿intellectual vanguard¿ preparing the groundwork for a dictatorship of the proletariat had its counterpart in a range of Catholic activists who operated in a space defined by both catechism and revolution. Within this space, the activists pursued a range of projects with the declared intent of saving the souls of Europe¿s working poor by either converting or ¿Christianizing¿ the continent's socialist enterprises.
As the 20
th century advanced, the laity increasingly assumed control over the Catholic vanguard, forming its own horizontal linkages across national boundaries independently of the ecclesiastical hierarchy. In so doing, the Catholic vanguard rewrote the ground-rules of how Catholicism functioned, intellectually, institutionally, and socially. These initiatives ¿ encompassing face-to-face dialogue as well as guerrilla warfare, academic philosophy as well as high-circulation press, mainstream politics as well as radical peace activism ¿ trained one eye on the official line dictated by the Holy See while experimenting with new forms of Catholic apostolate. Therein lay the bedrock of Catholicism¿s place in the modern world, forged as a response to the social question that integrated, to varying degrees, both tradition and revolution: a new catechism that could speak to an industrialized world.

▼ In this thesis I describe the complex uses and symbolic resonances of fur clothing in Krakow. During my fieldwork, fur emerged as an object that was at once quotidian and evocative of an uncommonly weighty set of associations. I describe fur industry workers’ ideas about how the production and consumption of fur changed throughout the twentieth century, from its status as a nationalized industry under socialism to its status in post-European Union accession Poland. Informants rely heavily on fur’s physical features, its materiality, when discussing the ways in which fur is an object to be passed through families. I demonstrate the ways in which beliefs about inheritance are heavily contingent upon the local understanding of work as a practice that creates adult personhood. The sections of the thesis which focus on the employment trajectories of furriers show, when placed alongside chapters that explore how fur is passed through generations, that whilst informants value highly both material and intangible inheritances from older kin, they also emphasise the importance of individual action, such as entrepreneurialism. I use the multiple ways in which fur can be interpreted: as part of a dead animal and as a valuable ‘textile’ amongst other meanings, to unpack local understandings of difference and social stratification, taking into account that ‘class’ is a term seldom used in Krakow. ‘Generation’ has a specific function and meaning within Krakowian society as a type of difference that is naturalized and easily spoken of. This contrasts with differences in religion and in class, local understandings of both of which are elucidated by fur due to its associations with, firstly, both Polish Judaism and Polish Catholicism and, secondly, bourgeois ways of being and ideas about poverty in Krakow.

▼ The wolf populations in Europe are mostly divided between the largely undeveloped countries of Eastern Europe, and the more developed Western European nations. Poland holds a special importance as a geographical link joining these populations into one contiguous population. The territories of two wolf packs in southwestern Poland were examined through the collection of scat data. Core areas were then defined using fixed-kernel density estimation techniques and 50% isopleths. Habitat variables were then compared between core plots and non-core plots. Scat marking of both packs resembled the Hot Spots pattern of marking proposed by Zub et al. (2003), rather than the Olfactory Bowl pattern suggested by Peters and Mech (1975). Core plots in both territories were found to be located significantly farther from primary roads than non-core plots, while core plots in one territory were also located significantly farther from human built-up areas than non-core plots. No significant differences were found in forest cover, elevation, or road density between core and non-core plots. These findings suggest that in a region with high human densities and increased levels of human penetration into the forest, wolves may more intensely utilize areas that minimize their exposure to frequent human disturbances, while adapting to occasional disturbances.
