Summary/Abstract: France in the interwar period was an ally of Poland, and its then socio-political situation and concerning state-church relations attracted the attention of publicists, including Catholic ones, in Poland. Although the Catholic pressof the Second Republic often referred to the still somewhat progressive secular-ization and religious crisis of France, it also drew attention to certain elementsof the renewal of Catholic life in that country. Catholicism permeated sociallife, including professional life, in which Polish emigration played no smallrole. This was a phenomenon parallel in its own way to the de-Christianizationprocesses that had been taking place for a long time in the country on the Loire.
