Reminiscencja marksizmu-leninizmu w XXI wieku? Przykład Komunistycznej Partii Polski i Polskiej Socjalistycznej Partii Robotniczej

Abstract

In 2002, the Communist Party of Poland and the Polish Socialist Workers’ Party were founded. Their programs were based on Marxism-Leninism. These parties were marginal organizations and did not play any significant role in the Polish political system. They made a positive but biased assessment of the period of socialism in Poland before 1989. This assessment was justified by the communist ideology. The Communist Party of Poland and the Polish Socialist Workers’ Party negatively assessed the political and economic transformation in Poland after 1989. They also criticized Poland's inclusion in the globalization processes, and positively assessed the policies pursued by countries that have not changed their systems, such as Cuba and North Korea. To verify this research hypothesis, the author used the method of qualitative analysis of source materials, including manifestos, policy documents and journalism of the aforementioned politica parties.
