Stosunek pracowników przedsiębiorstw toruńskich do władz państwowych w latach 1983–1989 w świetle akt Komitetu Wojewódzkiego Polskiej Zjednoczonej Partii Robotniczej i niezależnych czasopism
The Attitude of Employees of Toruń’s Enterprises to the State Authorities in the Years 1983–1989 in the Light of the Files of the Provincial Committee of the Polish United Workers’ Party and Independent Magazines

Summary/Abstract: The article constitutes an attempt to initiate research on the attitude of the Toruń community towards the political authorities after the martial law, the basic subject of which is not the opposition but a broad cross-section of society. The aim of the article is to examine the moods and behavior of the personnel of Toruń’s enterprises, with special emphasis on employees not belonging to the political opposition. The files of the archival collection of the Provincial Committee of the Polish United Workers’ Party in Toruń and selected underground magazines were used for the research. The conclusions reveal the ambiguous and variable, if not radical, attitude of Toruń’s workers to the authorities in the discussed period, and the fact that dissatisfaction was based mainly on the economic grounds.
