Abstract

The article presents an outline of history of the Polish People’s Party in F rance, active in years 1947-1999, which was a part of the Polish People’s Party in Exile. The Party belonged to the so-called Polish independence emigration. The PSL in France developed dynamically from the late 1940s until the early 1960s. In the following years, its activity diminished gradually and a great number of local party clubs were liquidated. The main reasons behind such decrease in activity of the PSL included, first of all, ageing of its members, lack of inflow of young people into the party and lack of financial resources. Only the most persistent and idealistic activists remained until regaining of independence and overthrowing of communism in Poland. Upon rebirth of the independent PSL in Poland, these activists considered themselves to be the foreign part of the domestic PSL.
