Postawy mniejszości żydowskiej i niemieckiej w Polsce wobec wojny z Rosją sowiecką 1919–1920 roku
Attitudes of the Jewish and German Minorities in Poland in The Face of the War against Bolshevik Russia 1919–1920

Summary/Abstract: The reborn Polish state was not a nationally homogeneous country. On the territory of the Second Polish Republic, national minorities could be found, among which the following were dominant: Ukrainians, Jews, Belarusians and Germans. The aim of the article is to present the various attitudes of the Jewish population and the anti-Polish attitude of the German population towards the Polish-Soviet war of 1920. A lot of space was devoted to showing positive examples of identification of part of the Jewish population with the Polish raison d’état in the face of the Bolshevik threat in 1920, but also a negative attitude towards the Polish state, which was shared by some Jews. Factors influencing the attitudes of the above-mentioned national minorities during the armed conflict between Poland and Bolshevik Russia were also indicated.
