In 1944, the new “people’s” government in Poland issued a decree on the implemen- tation of the agricultural reform. Acquisition of land ownership often took place in violation of the provisions of this legal act. After Stalin’s death, as part of the political “thaw,” those illegally deprived of their property began to demand the return of their land. The act issued in 1958 invalidated these attempts and legalised all of them, including the illegal annexation of land by the state. The circumstances of the law’s enactment clearly indicate that its aim was to finally deprive landowners of the right to all claims against the state. This law still blocks the reprivati- sation efforts against assets that were taken over in violation of the law on the basis of the decree on agricultural reform.
