Summary/Abstract: „Nasz Przegląd” was a paper which appeared in Warsaw in the years 1923-1939, in Polish, and was targeted on the Polonized Jewish bourgeoisie. It articulated Zionist views. „Nasz Przegląd” writers emphasized the Jews’ national identity, deplored assimilation) and advocated the formation of separate Jewish civic institutions. At the same time, „Nasz Przegląd” dedicated plenty of space to Polish culture. It suggested that it was not the Polish nation, just its nationalistic right wing, that was responsible for the anti-Semitism encountered in the Polish society. The paper emphasized the patriotism of Polish Jews and glorified Marshal Piłsudski. Also the Polish Roman Catholic clergy was presented in a favourable light.
