The Archive of the Opposition in KARTA Centre

The Archive of Opposition is one of the oldest activities of the KARTA Centre. It was established in 1991 as “The Archive of the Polish People’s Republic” and gathered all the materials concerning political life in Poland since 1956 to 1989, especially in connection to the events of 1956, 1968, 1970, 1980. In 1998 the archive changed its name to “The Archive of Opposition”, which reflects greater awareness of the specificity of the opposition in the Polish People’s Republic: its diversity extending beyond merely political actions. In the Archive researchers and journalists can find a very rich, written and visual material on the newest Polish political and social history.

《反对派档案》是KARTA中心最古老的活动之一。该档案成立于1991年，最初命名为《波兰人民共和国档案》，汇集了自1956年至1989年波兰政治生活的所有相关资料，尤其关注1956年、1968年、1970年、1980年的事件。1998年，档案更名为《反对派档案》，这一名称的改变反映了对于波兰人民共和国反对派特性的更深层次认识：其多样性不仅局限于政治行动。在《反对派档案》中，研究人员和记者可以找到关于最新波兰政治和社会历史极为丰富、涵盖文字和视觉资料的宝库。
