Radosław Zenderowski

Język: PL | Data publikacji: 31-12-2021 | Abstrakt | s. 85-112

The article analyses the issue of election activity of the Polish inhabitants of the Zaolzie region (the Czech Republic) in the 1990-2018 period referring to national elections (Lower Chamber of Parliament, Senate, President of the Czech Republic) as well as local and regional elections. The theoretical section offers analyses of national and ethnic minorities as (collective) political actors. The empirical part provides an in-depth analysis of the votes in particular elections, taking into consideration the communes with a significant rate of Polish inhabitants as well as those communes there the Polish ethnos was rather scarce. The ethnic affiliation has been considered as a vital independent variable of the choices made, however, other variables explaining election behaviour have also been indicated.

Podwójne nazewnictwo na Śląsku Cieszyńskim (Zaolziu) od czasów monarchii habsburskiej po dzień dzisiejszy

Józef Szymeczek

Język: PL | Data publikacji: 31-12-2021 | Abstrakt | s. 113-125

The article presents the process of introduction of double naming to the Cieszyn lands, later to Zaolzie. It presents this process in the space of time from the middle of the 19th century to the present day. It devotes attention to the time of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the interwar Czechoslovak Republic, post-war Czechoslovakia and the contemporary Czech Republic. In the context of dual naming, it draws attention to the legislative solutions of individual governments and to the use of dual naming in practice during specific periods. The article does not avoid describing sensitive issues such as the destruction of bilingual signs with double names of places and streets, or the growing wave of aversion towards Poles.
