The international scientific conference "Polish police forces in comparison to the other formations established in Europe to guarantee public order and security over the last 100 years" – Kielce, 31 May – 1 June 2021

The Institute of National Remembrance Branch Office in Kielce, Professor Edward Lipinski School of Economics, Law and Medical Sciences in Kielce and Winnica Cooperative Institute cordially invite you to a conference, the purpose of which is to analyze and expand knowledge about public order institutions, cooperation with justice institutions, current legal systems and the tasks and role played in the policy of strengthening the communist system, as well as presentation of individual attitudes of representatives of the law enforcement agencies of the Polish People's Republic, also in regional aspects. It will also be important to show the ways in which police authorities eliminated from public life those individuals and organizations that opposed the imposition of undemocratic system solutions on the society. The added value of this conference will be to point out new research areas on this subject.
