Summary/Abstract: The work presents the views of Emil Stanisław Rappaport on criminal law and its codification in the beginning of Polish People’s Republic. The considerations are mainly based on preserved archival materials that show the attitude of Professor Rappaport to the problems of criminal law in post-war Poland. Of significance for the article are also published sources, especially conference materials related to preparations for the 1st Congress of Polish Science, which reveal a significant discrepancy in the perception of the criminal law by academics, including Rappaport, and politicians.
