W artykule Leon Powolny. Bohater walki o polskość Śląska Opolskiego czy defraudant? ukazano jeden z mniej znanych epizodów z życia tego zasłużonego bojownika o polskość Śląska Opolskiego. Powolny – jak wskazują na to materiały źródłowe – był także złodziejem, defraudantem, który okradł bank, w którym pracował. Przez niemiecki wymiar sprawiedliwości skazany został na karę więzienia i tę najprawdopodobniej odbył. Po czym dalej funkcjonował w ruchu mniejszościowym na eksponowanych stanowiskach, był dowódcą struktur konspiracyjnych podczas II wojny światowej i zginął śmiercią męczeńską w niemieckim więzieniu w Brandenburgu, gdzie ścięto mu głowę toporem. Na pytanie, jak można było pogodzić te dwie postawy, autor z pokorą odpowiada: nie wiem! Być może szerzej zakrojone badania archiwalne pozwolą odpowiedzieć na tak postawione pytanie.
FROM DECREE OF 24TH APRIL 1952 ON ABOLITION OF FOUNDATIONS TO LAW OF 6TH APRIL 1984 ON FOUNDATIONS. A BREAKTHROUGH OR CONTINUATION? MATTER ABOUT FUNCTIONING OF RELIGOUS CHARITY FOUNDATIONS IN PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF POLANDSummary The author makes legal evaluation of the process of foundation liquidation on grounds of a decree of 24th April 1952; he ilustrates his deductions by concrete examples, taken from archival search. He also shows actions of Episcopate of Poland, aiming at establishment of Agricultural Foundation which actually resulted in passing by the Parliament of People’s Republic of Poland of an act concerning foundations of 6th April 1984, restoring this institution to the Polish legal order.
In the article, a reflection is made on the legal regulations developed by the First Synod of the Diocese of Opole, concerning the management of temporal goods of the Diocese. The study presents the content of 17 statutes and 5 annexes (as well as considering earlier studies produced by one of the synodal working commissions, intended to be discussed by the parish synodal groups), and reflects on the completeness of the legal treatment of this vital yet complex area of ecclesiastical life. The solutions adopted by the Synod should be considered incomplete, but the synodal legislator, that is the diocesan bishop, has the right to enact such particular norms as he deems appropriate and necessary.
In this text, the author presents the functioning of the Commune Committee of the Polish United Workers’ Party in Brudzń Duży, a commune lying near Płock, in the years 1972–1986. It is mainly the minutes of meetings of the commune party authorities, which were analyzed, paying special attention to their reaction towards the challenge of daily life in the period before – during – and after the political breakthrough in 1981. On the basis of the analysis of the source materials, heavy ideologization of thinking of the management staff of the Municipal Committee was found and in consequence – incapacity to respond to social expectations. Hence, it led to a collapse of the influence of the Polish United Workers’ Party all over the country and then – to the liquidation of the entire political formation.
