Description
Résumé:The program of the PAX association. Realism, opportunism or utopia? The article concerns political concepts of Bolesław Piasecki – the leader of the PAX. The PAX was the organization of Catholics supporting the Communist regime. Piasecki was trying to reconcile Catholicism and communism. It resulted in the conflict with the Catholic Church. The communist authorities while using the PAX as a war tool in a battle with the Catholic Church, did not trust Piasecki. This resulted in the PAX and Piasecki being under permanent surveillance of secret police. The PAX did not grow in importance until after 1956 when, Władysław Gomułka had come into power. Gomułka allowed development of the PAX structures throughout the country. At the same time he criticized the ideology of the association.
