„Akademik” – pismo i środowisko (1945–1947). Przyczynek do historii niezależnego ruchu studenckiego po zakończeniu II wojny światowej
Akademik: a periodical and a group (1945-1947) – a contribution to the history of an independent student movement after the 2nd World War

Summary/Abstract: This article discusses the short history of a group of university students gathered around a Warsaw periodical Akademik, published from 1945 to 1947 as a mouthpiece of Towarzystwo Bratnich Pomocy. The article analyses periodical’s content and provides a general picture of this group. Akademik’s editorial team and its fellows and publicists were members of different youth organisations (including political ones), such as Academic Association of Young Fighters (AZWM „Zycie”), ZNOS, OKSMW “Wici”, Democratic Youth Association (ZMD), Bratnie Pomoce, Academic Section of Former Political Prisoners (Sekcja Akademicka Bylych Wiezniow Politycznych) and Academic Sports Association (AZS). Akademik commented on various topics, such as life at the academia and students’ accommodation, but it also featured polemic articles on ideology and politics. Around a year before the last issue was published a group of students left the editorial team and began to work with Stronnictwo Pracy.
