Search for: [Abstract = "The article shows the role of the university’s party cell at the Warsaw University of Technology in the 1956 crisis. Although difficult to grasp in sources, it was noticeable due to the rallies in support of the new leadership of the Polish United Workers’ Party \(PZPR\) held at this university during the famous Eighth Plenum of the Party. The author tried to identify the political sympathies of University activists for the Party factions. The next part discusses the process of departure from the ‘56 October, which took place very quickly in the PZPR and manifested itself in the suppression of grassroots initiatives and departure from democratic principles for the election of authorities."]
