AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The column is critical of Polish Australians' indignation at the number of votes won by the former Communist party in the 1991 elections in post-Communist Poland. The author points to widespread unemployment in Poland and decades of life under a totalitarian regime as factors that help to explain the election results.
