Summary/Abstract: The Prosecutor’s Office of the Polish People’s Republic was a highly politicised organ. Most prosecutors have linked their careers with the ruling Polish United Workers’ Party. However, the momentous events of August 1980, exerted an influence on this milieu. The social renewal movement under the banner of “Solidarity” did not find many sympathisers. Prosecutors related to the political system, however, created at the turn of 1980–1981, a new Labour Union of Prosecutor’s Office Workers. Through this organizsation, they conducted a dialogue with the authorities. Prosecutors expected changes that would strengthen their independence, role and position in state structures.
