Life / How do Poles feel about non whites/non Slavs living in Poland? [150]

Why is there high unemplyment in germany and comparatively low unemployment in Poland? Because all the Poles have gone to Germany to look for work. duh.

All your theories are simple untrue. :) Face it! Germans are easy to brain wash ... Hitler proved it and results of communism prove it.

Now they are more similar to Bielrussians than to Czechs, Poles or West Germans. Bielrussians ... Russians and Poles know something abut Bielarus ...

Eurostat makes statistics for whole europe using one method.

POLAND

For a successive year Poland has registered the biggest drop in the unemployment rate among EU countries.

According to a Eurostat report 6.5% of Poles remained jobless in September. The figure places Poland below the Union average, presently standing at 7% and shows visible improvement of the situation on the labor market.

You can copare it to branwashed by Hitler later by Stalin your Germans. Poland had the same brainwashing...

Probably because all the young people have moved west to look for work, because they don't fancy milking cows until they're 70, when they'll probably die because the public health is so bad there

At least they don't sit sucking the doll like post-commie brain washed Germans.

Neither are logistical centres. Compare with Katowitz and Breslau. What's the new business centre in Poland? Posen. All used to be Germany. Look at the train network sometime. Face it, Poland owes most of its industrial and financial strength to being handed Silesia after the war.

Look on eastern Germany with unemployment on 17% level and on region i live - Wielkopolska with 6% of unemployment. Germans in Poznań lost in economical war against Poles... even they had whole Prussian administration on their side.

Galicia including Krakow and L'viv was a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. That is why it was not in Preussen.

Galicja has been industralized after partitons in free Poland.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Industrial_Region_(Poland)

The Central Industrial Region (Polish: Centralny Okręg Przemysłowy, abbreviated COP), is an industrial region in Poland.It was one of the biggest economic projects of the Second Polish Republic. The 5-year long project was initiated by a famous Polish economist, deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Treasury, Eugeniusz Kwiatkowski. Its goal was to create a heavy industrial center in the middle of the country, as far as possible from any borders, strengthen the Polish economy and reduce unemployment. The four-year plan for the development of COP was scheduled from 1 September 1936 until 30 July 1940 and was interrupted by the outbreak of the Second World War and the German invasion of Poland on 1 September 1939. Nonetheless, the COP project succeeded in vastly expanding Polish industry, and after the end of the war in 1945 COP was rebuilt and expanded under the People's Republic of Poland.

The following industrial projects were part of the plan: steel mill and power plant in Stalowa Wola, rubber factory in Dębica, automobile factory in Lublin, aircraft factory in Mielec, aircraft engine and artillery factory in Rzeszów, hydroelectric power plants in Rożnów and Myszkowice, expansion of Zakłady Azotowe in Mościce. Military industry in the Staropolski Okręg Przemysłowy was expanded in the towns of Radom, Skarżysko-Kamienna, Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, Starachowice, Kielce. Most of those investments were located in regions with high unemployment, and their construction succeeded in reducing social tensions and began to strengthen the Polish economy.

Now this region has some tradition which have began durring 2nd Polish republic.

History / Polish Anti-semitism - origins? [186]

ZEGOTA-Council for Aid to Jews in Occupied Poland(1939-1945). ZEGOTA (in Polish: ŻEGOTA) was the only government-sponsored (London-based Polish Government-in-Exile) social welfare agency established to rescue Jews in German-occupied EUROPE. It provided hiding places and false identify documents for Jewish men, women, and children who were able to escape from German-Nazi control and ultimately their efforts saved thousands of lives.

Few people know that among all the countries occupied by the German Third Reich during the Second World War(1939-1945) only in GERMAN-OCCUPIED POLAND was any kind of help to a person of Jewish faith or origin punishable by death. This penalty was widely announced by the occupying authorities. What is more, this punishment was quite often imposed not only on the rescuer, but also on his/her family, often on neighbors, and on whole towns or villages. The Germans believed in collective responsibility, trying to eliminate as many Poles, and Slavic people, as possible, making them the most terrorized populations after the Jews

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Righteous_among_the_Nations

In secular usage, the term is used by the State of Israel to describe non-Jews who risked their lives during the Holocaust in order to save Jews from extermination by the Nazis. The secular award (discussed below) by the same name given by the State of Israel has often been translated into English as Righteous Gentile.

History / Polish Anti-semitism - origins? [186]

"On what Poles and Jews don't like to remember"

polishpress.wordpress.com/2007/06/02/on-what-poles-and-jews-dont-like-to-remember/

Author: Adam Michnik (editor-in-chief of Gazeta Wyborcza daily, former leader of anti-communist opposition, human rights activist, Pole and Jew

(Lecture given in July 1995 in Krakow, on a conference entitled "Polish remembrance - Jewish remembrance", first published in Tygodnik Powszechny of 16th July 1995)

When we analyse the documents of Jews living in Poland - letters, diaries, and other documents - what we see in them is the love to the Polish ethos, to the Polish culture, to the Polish system of values. And that love was rejected. If I may, I will risk a thesis: the tension, the drama, the hurting on the Jewish side is the result of unrequited love mechanism. No one hates a man, like rejected wife or lover. And I think that is why there is the taboo in the Polish side.

I have been reflecting many times, why in the world there is no such stereotype, that Russians are anti-Semites. There is no such stereotype. Or why today in Israel it is said that Holocaust was done by Nazis not by the Germans? It's not that Poles didn't have their fascists. We did. Every nation has them. And the fact that Hitler didn't find here any Quisling or Laval I don't see as some Polish merit. He probably would have found if he looked for. But it is a different matter. People are talking around the world about the Poles as anti-Semites, although they didn't have their Laval or Brasillach, and they aren't talking like that about the French, who had. Why? Because there had to be some way to justify Yalta.

Poles are a specific nation, which just dreams to persecute Jews. And when I hear such a thing, I am very afraid of it, for hundred of reasons. But three are the most important. First: because it's a lie. Second: because it's not good to stick to lies.

on the Jewish side there is something what you could call "triumphalism of pain": which means that only we, the Jews, have the right to pain, only we have the right to be the object of compassion as sufferers. While this is a perspective, which Poles will never accept. Poles have had their Auschwitz. Poles have had their executions

Zbigniew_Rybczyński the OSCAR winner. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zbigniew_Rybczyński

Zbigniew Rybczyński (born January 27, 1949) is an Academy Award winning Polish filmmaker who has won numerous prestigious industry awards both in the United States and internationally. He was also a teacher of cinematography, and digital cinematography. Currently he is a researcher of blue and greenscreen compositing technology at Ultimatte Corporation.

Rybczyński was born in £ódź, Poland. He was studying cinematography in the then world-famous £ódź Film School (PWSFTviT). He began his professional career working as a cinematographer for young directors of his generation.

Rybczynski has created many music videos for artists such as Art of Noise, Mick Jagger, Simple Minds, Pet Shop Boys, Chuck Mangione, The Alan Parsons Project, Yoko Ono, Lou Reed, Supertramp, Rush, Propaganda, Lady Pank and also for John Lennon's Imagine.

It seems that he decided to come back to Poland. Teach new movie makers and he wants to make new movies.

I dreamed about this for a long time and finally happens : I go back to Polish - says "Gazeta " Zbigniew Rybczynski , director and experimenter , winner of an Oscar for the film "Tango" . For the week ending 60 years.

Polonus escaped to USA but would like to see Poland as reservate... even on cost of Russian occupation. all in all he is in USA. If he promoted consumptionist style of life it would be easier to understand why he lives where he lives but he promotes life in poverty and in catholic faith. Why USA ?

News / Polish Japanese relations (history and present time) [90]

bbk.ac.uk/russojapanesewar/abstracts.html

When, in the early years of the twentieth-century, Russia and Japan moved towards war, Polish hopes were raised that the brother 'David' would fatally wound the Russian Goliath. Living under imperial rule and subject to vigorous campaigns of Russification, nationalist Poles took the view that the enemy's enemy should become their friend.

Paintings, buildings and poems were judged according to a vigorously maintained national index. It is not surprising then that 'Japonisme' -- a pan-European fashion - carried a particular political charge in this particular context. As this paper will show, prominent artists, collectors and writers, used symbols of Japan to comment on the state of Poland. In Krakow, Feliks 'Mangha' Jasienski walked in the city in the armour of a samurai warrior and a local monument to Polish insurgency was represented by Stanislaw Wyspianski in a famous drawing cycle as Mount Fuji. The insistent and in many ways eclectic orientalism of Polish culture under Russian rule appears to stretch the connections drawn by Said and others between orientalism and empire. According to her Polish devotees, the source of Japan's power of resistance lay not in her imperial social order but in her desirable alterity.

Law / Setting up a Chinese Language School in Poland - good business idea? [41]

China is ancient country. Many times in history was the most advanced country on the world.

After 17th century europe became more technologicaly advanced than China.

At the begining of the 20th century Japanise historician copared Poland to China ... Country which once lost independence ... and it was not so easy to regain the power.

imperilaism

French political cartoon from the late 1890s. A pie represents "Chine" (French for China) and is being divided between UK, Germany, Russia, France and Japan.

In middle ages it was close to Chinese colonisation of the world but their empiror changed policy and they have choosen izolationism instead of expansionism.

compare the size of ships used by Zheng He and by Christopher Columbus.

Ottoman empire was interesting example.

After when Poles beaten them in battle of Viena... they had enormous debt ... and started to sell their assets to pay their current debts ... it was the begining of the end.

Lets have a look on current world. Who has debt and who buys assets
