Rola prasy w rozwoju Narodowej Demokracji (1893–1939)

Abstract

National Democracy was one of the main Polish political movements of the end of occupation and the interwar period. Its position was reflected by the state of the press. National Democracy constituted a political camp which created the most opinion-forming press systems of the interwar period. Conseqvently, people’s opinions were influenced by the country-wide newspapers representing the policy line of this socio-political movement, but also by the strong position of local, regional and community press titles. National Democracy had a large number of press titles and an efficient circulation and distribution network. The opinion-forming circle of National Democracy and the main creators of national political thought professionally assessed the importance of information and propaganda in publicising and popularising the national idea.
