  • Polityka pamięci „żołnierzy wyklętych”

    Open Access•K Jaskulowski, Piotr Majewski•ARTICLE•Kultura i Społeczeństwo•2024

    Referring to the concept of hegemony, the article focuses on memory politics regarding the “cursed soldiers”. It analyses how and why the conservative-nationalist right wing invented the “cursed soldier” figure and elevated it to the role of a key historical symbol in its hegemonic project of remodelling Polish collective memory in keeping with its ideology. Drawing on the concept of difficult heritage, the paper argues that hegemonic memory poli…

  • Coat Thieves’ and Bandits? Belarusian Counter-Memory of the ‘Cursed Soldiers’

    Open Access•Paweł Dobrosielski, K Jaskulowski et al.•ARTICLE•Acta Poloniae Historica•2024•References: 3

    In the article, we analyse attitudes of representatives of the Belarusian minority in Poland towards the armed anti-communist underground operating in the Podlasie region after 1944 (the so-called ‘cursed soldiers’). Drawing on semi-structured interviews with various Belarusian actors, as well as on observations made during field research in the Podlasie region in June 2021, we are able to illustrate a clash between official commemorative practic…

  • The memory politics of Cursed Soldiers, antisemitism and racialisation

    Open Access•K Jaskulowski, Piotr Majewski•ARTICLE•Nations and Nationalism•2023•Cited by: 4•References: 39

    This paper examines the relationship between racism and the memory politics of the anti‐communist underground in Poland. It explores a covert antisemitism behind the conservative nationalist hegemonic project of transforming the anti‐communist underground into the ideologically charged symbol of the Cursed Soldiers. It demonstrates that under the conditions of the condemnation of antisemitism, the symbolism of the Cursed Soldiers has become a cov…

  • Populist in form, nationalist in content? Law and Justice, nationalism and memory politics

    Open Access•K Jaskulowski, Piotr Majewski•ARTICLE•European Politics and Society•2022•Cited by: 14•References: 5

    The article aims to analyse the mobilisation of a collective memory for political purposes by the Law and Justice party in Poland. PiS is often presented as a populist party, which came to power thanks to an anti-elite rhetoric and social programme. The party portrayed itself as a representative of socially excluded groups as well as a defender of 'normal' people against corrupted elites. At the same time, PiS mobilised its supporters by referrin…

  • Middling migrants, neoliberalism and racism

    K Jaskulowski, M Pawlak•ARTICLE•New Community•2022•Cited by: 11•References: 34

    The literature on migration and racism usually focuses on Western, highly skilled migrants working in global cities who reproduce racial postcolonial hierarchies or on less-privileged, low-skilled migrants and refugees, whose situation is analysed in terms of experienced racial prejudices. Our article aims to fill the gap related to the inbetween category of middling migrants and to analyse their relations with neoliberalism and racism. By drawin…

  • The Politics of a National Identity Survey: Polishness, Whiteness, and Racial Exclusion

    Open Access•K Jaskulowski•ARTICLE•Nationalities Papers•2021•Cited by: 5•References: 26

    This article analyses a popular survey on national identity in Poland. However, the analysis of the survey is a pretext to remind one of the limitations of crude quantitative methods and to look at the Polish national identity itself. The article shows that the survey questions are far from unambiguous, and respondents might attribute different meanings to them. The survey does not “measure” national identity existing in the world, rather it serv…

  • Patterns of Middling Migrant Sociabilities: A Case Study of a Disempowered City and Towns

    Open Access•K Jaskulowski•ARTICLE•Journal of International…•2020•Cited by: 2•References: 27

    Drawing on scalar theory of locality and the concept of urban sociabilities, this paper discusses sociabilities, social encounters based on domains of commonality, between middling migrants and local inhabitants in three different settings in Poland. At the same time, however, the paper points out to the feeling of strangeness and otherness experienced by migrants due to cultural and social distance. In contrast to mainstream literature that conc…

    For several years, receiving-country states have increasingly defined immigration as a security issue. This article reviews five recent books that analyse the securitisation of migration from different perspectives. The reviewed books address the securitisation of borders, refugees and their protection, and the consequences of securitisation for migrant minorities. All five books offer a valuable contribution to the literature and expand our know…

  • Teaching the nation: History and nationalism in Polish school history education

    K Jaskulowski, Piotr Majewski et al.•ARTICLE•British Journal of Sociology of…•2018•Cited by: 12•References: 26

    This article aims to analyse Polish history teachers’ understanding of the role of teaching history. Drawing on the results of qualitative research conducted in Wroclaw, we argue that teachers see history education through the prism of nationalism. Teachers construct the past in equivocally nationalist terms. They regard nationalist representations of the past as taken for granted. Moreover, teachers reproduce a dominant nationalist discourse by …

Drawing on qualitative research in Upper Silesian schools, the article analyses in detail how the state-sponsored history is enacted and resisted by the teachers in school practice. The article also demonstrates the advantages of processual conceptualisation of collective memory. It provides further …

  • Indian middling migrants in Wrocław: A study of migration experiences and strategies

    Open Access•K Jaskulowski•ARTICLE•Asian and Pacific migration journal•2017•Cited by: 10•References: 20

    This article analyzes the migration experiences and strategies of Indian middle-class professionals living in Wrocław, Poland. Drawing on qualitative research, I explore the question of how and why they move to Wrocław. I argue that they see Wrocław not so much as a city of interest in Poland and as their chosen destination, but rather as an entry point to the developed world. For Indian migrants, moving to Wrocław is primarily a strategy for inc…

    The aim of this article is to explore the patterns of local incorporation of migrant professionals in an urban context.

  • The Uefa European Football Championship 2012 and pop nationalism in Poland: Between Confirmation and Contestation

    K Jaskulowski, Piotr Majewski•ARTICLE•Identities•2016•Cited by: 2•References: 29

    Poland and Ukraine jointly hosted the European Football Championship in 2012. The Polish media and government portrayed Euro 2012 as the culmination of the post-communist transformation that started in 1989, a great national celebration and proof that Poland belonged to the family of ‘modern’ nations. Drawing on ethnographic research, we look beyond the official discourse and analyse Euro 2012 ‘from below’ in our paper. We focus on analysing the …

  • The magic of the national flag

    K Jaskulowski•ARTICLE•Ethnic and Racial Studies•2016•Cited by: 14•References: 15

    This paper aims to explore the question of the cult of the national flag from a few selected angles. I focus in particular on the magical dimension of the national flag. My argument is that the central position of the flag in nationalism has much do to with a magical mode of thinking. However, this type of thinking cannot simply be regarded as the legacy of so-called primitive or pre-industrial societies. On the contrary, I will argue that nation…

He was the first to adopt a more neutral stance on nationalism, one that made a sustained attempt at dispassionate analysis of this phenomenon in order to define, classify, and explain it.

    This paper aims to analyse Polish history teachers’ perceptions of the role of historical education in the context of nationalism, class and locality. Drawing on the results of qualitative research conducted in the post-industrial and post-German city of Wałbrzych in Poland, we argue that teachers are not fully aware of the role of nationalist politics in representations of the past.
