It sets out the sequence of events, and examines the strategies of the various political groupings prior to the partially free election of June 1989. This volume argues that the specific negotiating strategies adopted by the communist party representatives in the Round Table discussions before the elections was a key factor in communism's collapse. The book shows that on many occasions, PZPR decision-makers ignored expert advice, and many Round Table bargains went against the party's best interests. Using in-depth interviews with major party players, including General Jaruzelski, General Kiszczak and Mieczyslaw Rakowski, as well as Solidarity advisors such as Adam Michnik, the text provides a unique source of first-hand accounts of Poland's revolutionary drama.Political scienceCommunismPolandPolitical science.Communism.320.943809049Hayden Jacqueline1261898NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910476817103321The collapse of communist power in Poland2946134UNINA01099nam0 22002651i 450 UON0014473220231205102856.44820020107d1998 |0itac50 baaraLY|||| |||||ˆal-‰Nass al-si ri bayna al-ta'sil wa'l-tahlil"Dirasah fi'l-si r al- arabi al-hadit wa'l-ma asir"Bu Gama a Bu Bu iyuBangasiMansurat Gami at Qariuns1998205 p.25 cmPOESIA ARABA MODERNACriticaUONC020438FILYBengasiUONL000979892.71009POESIA ARABA - Storia e critica21BU BU IYUBu Gama aUONV089017671904Mansurat Gami at QariunsUONV264300650ITSOL20240220RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00144732SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI ARA Afr VI C b y 043 SI AA 24439 5 043 Nass al-si ri bayna al-ta'sil wa'l-tahlil1276758UNIOR
