Abstract

Abstract: This article explores international cultural relationships between the Netherlands and Poland in one of the coldest periods of the Cold War, namely the first half of the 1950s. Even though in the analysed period, East-West cultural relations remained overshadowed by growing international tensions, they did exist, as exemplified by the two countries in question and their relations between 1950 and 1956. This case study aims to illustrate how the 'smaller powers' of the Cold War conflict shaped and implemented their international cultural policies, as well as to shed light on the scale and nature of cultural relations that took place across the Iron Curtain at that difficult time.
