A bridge between socialism and nationalism from the Oder to the Pacific Ocean? The wartime episode of national syndicalism in Poland

Abstract

The article presents the ideological program of the Polish National Syndicalist Camp – an underground organization operating in Warsaw and in several poviats of northern Mazovia. The organization conducted an armed struggle against Germany, and its leader carried out attacks on German territories as part of the activities of the Union for the Retaliation of the Union of Armed Struggle. The activities of the Polish National and Syndical Camp at the central level were put to an end upon the arrest of its leader in the spring of 1942, and later of individual ordinary members. The field structures continued to fight in the ranks of the National Armed Forces and the Home Army
