Media and Emigration: the Radio Maryja as a Case Study

Summary/Abstract: The author describes his own observations and experiences which he gained during his eighteen years work for the Radio Maryja, especially his contacts – these in person, and those via air-phone-calls – with Poles who are settled in different parts of the world. He concentrates on the role, which is played by the Radio Maryja in the emigrant milieu, and underlines that for Poles who have ever lived abroad the contact with their Fatherland has always been very important. In the past, of course, it was not so easy as it is now due to the development of Internet and technologies which enable the long-distance satellite broadcast. Only in last decades the contact of Polish emigrants with their Fatherland became more immediate and lively due to the modern media which apply modern technologies. The author shows that Radio Maryja, whose basic assignment is to evangelize, has always endeavored to reach any place where Poles are settled at home and abroad.
