The Führer and the Jewish doctor Bloch
What was the relationship between Dr. Eduard Bloch and the founder of the ephemeral “Aryan” empire? How did this humble provincial Jewish doctor gain the recognition and even gratitude of Adolf Hitler?

Wojciech Paszyński tries to find answers to these questions in his article entitled “Edeljude” and the miraculous salvation — the case of a close relationship between Adolf Hitler and the Jewish doctor Eduard Bloch (1872–1945).
Farmers and the Church
The pastoral ministry of farmers was one of the pastoral forms of the Church, clearly formative. This aspect cannot be overlooked when recreating the past from those years. For farmers associated with Solidarity, it was a space of support, allowing them to go through the most difficult period. Without this form of activity, Solidarity in the countryside practically had no chance of surviving – notes Eugeniusz Wilkowski in the article Pastoral care of farmers in the Lublin diocese in the 1980s.

What do the letters to the Party show?
The communist party, exercising the dictatorial power in Poland, was at the same time the final and highest appeal body to which people turned to with their problems in their professional and private life. The new article in our pages shows through the prism of letters and complaints to the PZPR the social mood of the inhabitants of the newly created Biała Podlaskie Voivodeship. The presented problems seem characteristic of the Polish People’s Republic.

What did the policeman think?
This is not a bold thesis put forward contrary to known jokes about militiamen, but a contribution to the history of formation of the Citizens’ Militia cadre – communist formation of public order and security – in the Radzyń Podlaski poviat. Dariusz Magier decided to analyze the attitude of militia officers in the Radzyń poviat to the two main elements responsible for post-war changes in Poland: the communist system and the Soviet Union. The source of considerations are the characteristics of the militia staff prepared by the poviat secretary of the Polish Workers’ Party in Radzyń Podlaski in early 1946.
