Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to the analysis of the attitude of the “Today and Tomorrow” group – a circle licensed by the communist regime and rallying around Bolesław Piasecki – toward the basic assumptions of the Polish national movement during the years 1945 -1946. The author strove to ascertain if, and to what degree, it dovetailed with the position of the underground National Party. She concentrated on key elements in the forefront of this political camp’s thinking already during the Second Republic (prewar Poland). These included the approach toward communism and the Soviet Union, and the resulting assessment of Poland’s postwar situation. The role ascribed after the Second World War by both of these circles to activists declaring their commitment to the legacy of National Democracy was not without significance in this context. The place of the Roman Catholic faith and Western tradition in their ideological conceptions played an essential role.
