Summary/Abstract: The publication is based on the analysis of the periodical bulletin of the Polish Ministry of the Interior – the so-called "Daily Information", covering the martial law period in Poland (13 December 1981 to 22 July 1983). It consists of 115 short "stories". The subjective selection of quotations from the official ministerial documents shows the sad and grotesque side of the martial law, but on a deeper level it helps to understand the economic and social history of the Polish People's Republic, as well as the official propaganda of this period.
