Summary/Abstract: This article presents the Polish press’ reception of the Carnation Revolution and, as coming in its aftermath – the decolonization of Africa till the independence of Angola, on the basis of texts published in the weekly news magazine Polityka (years 1974-1976). The analysis encapsulates both more exhaustive articles and shorter notes from the international section (“Za granicą”). The research, by shedding light on political predilections of contemporary Poland, illuminates how the interest in the Carnation Revolution translates into the readings of decolonization- related topics in the form of reportages, essays, interviews, among others.
