Znaki niepodległości. Święto 11 Listopada w Polsce i jego odpowiedniki w międzywojennej Europie Środkowo-Wschodniej
Signs of independence. 11 November Day in Poland and its counterparts in interwar Central Eastern Europe

Summary/Abstract: The article presents policies of memory pursued in the interwar period by the states of Central and Eastern Europe, on the basis of four groups of examples. The first one concerns controversies around the date of gaining (or regaining) independence, or unification of the country. The next one – monuments removed or erected after 1918. The third group focuses on the fate of war graves and commemoration places of people killed during the Great War and in fights for independence and frontiers, while the last one analyses the circumstances and symbolism of unknown soldiers’ graves.
