Summary/Abstract: The Independent Solidarity Union movement in Poland and the coup on December 13, 1981 were of great importance for the whole world, especially in Eastern Europe. A period of martial law was experienced in Poland between 13 December 1981 and 22 July 1983 under the control of the military administration. Even though the events in Poland are seen as an internal problem, they generally represented the ideological, political and economic war between the East-West Bloc. The events in Poland and the developments in the period of martial law have been closely followed by the Turkish press as well as all over the world. In the Turkish press, developments regarding the Polish issue have been conveyed and evaluated in a multifaceted way.
