Abstract of the project

Three decades ago, political science and legal studies took almost no interest in a small region in Central Europe called Upper Silesia. Today, the scholarly literature in many disciplines is growing due, among other things, to the references to the situation of Silesians made by the Advisory Committee of the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities in the Fourth Opinion on Poland. However, most of those studies do not include analysis of the most important political context: ethnopolitics in the Republic of Poland, its past and present. In this project, we aim to explore the dynamic relations between Poles and Silesians and the consequences of those relations on public law and policy. We also analyse ethnic policy and memory policy in Poland in relation to Upper Silesia, especially in the context of Polish national identity.

The file includes all source data, the analyses of which are presented in the manuscript entitled "Double minority: Ukrainian Pentecostalisms in Poland" submitted to Zeszyty Łużyckie, Journal for Minority Studies. This data collection represents a fragment of the raw data collected within the research project “Missionaries, Migrants and Hosts. Pentecostalism, the 'Other', and Activism in Contemporary Poland” (Sonata 17, NCN, UMO-2021/43/D/HS6/02274). The data set consists of 1) metadata for the full anonymized texts of interviews with members of Ukrainian Pentecostal churches in Krakow and Lublin, 2) photos taken during the participant observation, 3) and scans of printed materials collected between 03.2023 and 09.2024.

As of June 2021, there were around ******* Polish nationals living in the United Kingdom. Between 2008 and 2019, the Polish population of the United Kingdom more than doubled, reaching a peak of over *** million in 2017.

Baltic Barometer 2014. Public opinion data: representative samples of the adult population in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, including the Russian-speaking and Polish minorities.

The dataset provides important information about the mood in the three Baltic countries almost 25 years after the restoration of their independence and 10 years after their accession as full members of the European Union. It covers attitudes towards the past, current events and to some extent hopes for the future.

The second European Union Minorities and Discrimination Survey (EU-MIDIS II) was conducted in 2016 by the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) as a follow-up to the first survey on minorities´ and immigrants´ experiences of discrimination and criminal victimisation conducted by the Agency in 2008. The EU-MIDIS II survey collected information from 25,515 respondents from different ethnic minority and migrant backgrounds, including Roma, in all EU Member States (2016: EU-28 including the UK). The EU-MIDIS II sample is representative of the selected populations that were interviewed. The sample includes persons belonging to ethnic or national minorities, Roma and Russians, persons born outside the EU (first generation respondents) and persons with at least one parent born outside the EU (second generation respondents). All respondents were 16 years or older and had lived in a private household for at least 12 months before the interview. People living in institutional settings - for example, hospitals or prisons - were not interviewed. The selection of groups to be surveyed in each country was based on several criteria, including the size of the target population, the feasibility of surveying the target population in terms of cost and accessibility, the risk of certain groups experiencing ´racial´, ´ethnic´ or ´religious´ discrimination and victimisation, their vulnerability to the risk of social exclusion and, finally, comparability with previous FRA surveys. The target groups of the EU-MIDIS II survey are immigrants and descendants of immigrants from North Africa; immigrants and descendants of immigrants from Turkey; immigrants and descendants of immigrants from Sub-Saharan Africa; immigrants and descendants of immigrants from Asia and South Asia; new immigrants; Roma; members of the Russian minority. In Slovenia and Poland, people who immigrated to the EU in the last 10 years were included, regardless of country of origin. The fieldwork was conducted between September 2015 and September 2016 by Ipsos MORI under the supervision of FRA staff who monitored compliance with strict quality control procedures. The questionnaire includes questions on perceived discrimination in various areas, such as employment, education, housing, health and in the use of public or private services. It also covers police checks, criminal victimisation (including hate crime), and awareness of rights and of institutions that provide victim support. In addition, respondents were asked about issues of social participation and integration, including trust in public institutions and the degree of attachment to the country in which they live.

In May 1941, less than two years after the German invasion of Poland, the total number of forced laborers in the German economy stood at approximately three million people. Around half of these worked in an agricultural capacity, and a third worked in industry. Over the next three years, the number increased to 7.1 million forced laborers, and the industrial sector grew to be the largest user of forced labor. Forced laborers Due to the high number of men mobilized, and a reluctance to have women to enter the workforce, the Nazi regime heavily encouraged the voluntary migration of workers from annexed territories in the early years of the war, in order to meet the labor demand of the Reich. There was a small influx of voluntary workers, but it quickly became evident that working conditions were much harsher than expected (especially for Poles), and the stream of workers dried up. In April 1940, authorities in German-annexed Poland then ordered that all available workers born between 1915 and 1925 were required to move to Germany. The largest source of forced labor, however, was from concentration camps; it was mostly Jews and Slavs, as well as other ethnic minorities, political prisoners, criminals, and prisoners of war. Between 1939 and 1944, the number of German laborers also grew substantially; the Nazi regime implemented stricter laws and sentences that punished people for any activities perceived to be critical of or in contrast to Nazi ideology (such as listening to foreign or underground radio stations), and 16 year olds were also sentenced as adults. However, Germans made up a minority of forced laborers in Germany, and this fell to just five to 10 percent of forced laborers by the war's end. Extermination through work Most forced laborers were contributing directly to the German war effort, producing food, armaments, and materiel for the front lines. Because of this, their places of work became targets for Allied bombing campaigns, which had a disproportionate effect on Germany's forced labor population. Forced laborers were then used in the active repair and rebuilding of these targeted areas, which exposed them to further raids, undetonated bombs, and chemical hazards. In later years, the share of Gypsies, Jews, and Slavs working in Germany increased further, and the living conditions for these prisoners worsened. As the Reich's resources became stretched, food and provisions for prisoners were rationed, healthcare became non-existent, and work quotas increased; it was only in mid-1944 that the authorities realized how detrimental this was to output and rations were increased. In the winter of 1944-45, as the Soviets pushed west into Germany, many of the larger concentration camps in the east were evacuated and the prisoners were sent on "death marches" to reinforce the workforce in Germany. Some estimates suggest that up to 700,000 prisoners were forced on these death marches (including 56,000 from Auschwitz in mid-January), and between 200,000 and 350,000 were killed. Despite its negative impact on production for the war effort, the extermination of ethnic minorities and so-called "undesirables" by exhaustion was still seen as an overall favorable outcome.
