Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to point to the transformation of Stefan Żółkiewski’s political authority into a scholarly one. The basic research material for the analysis consists of the archival materials which provide evidence on both Stefan Żółkiewski himself and the Central Committee of the Polish United Workers’ Party. Having analysed Żółkiewski’s political activity, whose focal point is the events of March 1968, the author tries to demonstrate that the scholar’s influence he exerted on his students and colleagues was not only the result of losing his political position but also making a consistent axiological choice.
