Abstract
Without the vigorous intervention of some women during the historical strike at the Gdansk shipyard in August 1980, Solidarność would not have come into being. Likewise, women played a pivotal role during the phase after the implementation of martial law on 13 December 1981. It was thanks to their enormous activities throughout the entire country that as early as spring 1989 the Round Table was established, where it was decided to hold semi-free elections, which finally resulted in the turnaround. However, few women participated in the Round Table talks. Only just over a decade ago, women’s withdrawal from active politics has entered the public and academic debate.
