VERY SHORT STRIKE

POLISH TITLE: BARDZO KRÓTKI STRAJK

The political unrest that took place in 1980 by the “Solidarity” movement created the possibility of a future dialog between the people and the ruling Communist Party. As usual, many students joined the “rebellion and protests” for the autonomy of the student body within Polish Universities and their own representation and sovereignty without the supervision of the Party.
