| Summary: | The author notes that the ideological legacy of the National Party in Poland reflected to a large extent the key constituents of the National Democracy’s political thought, such as nationalism, representation of all social classes, national integrity and the concept of the nation- state. The National Party in Poland think-tank included politicians who had a different understanding of, and approach to, key ideological, social and political phenomena. However, this did not prevent them from creating new political ideas among other things based on Christian values. Political journalists associated with the National Party described Polish nationalism as a middle-of-the-road trend, which had an element of altruism and respect for others, unlike possessive nationalism, which focuses on the exploitation of other nations. The author came to the conclusion that according to the National Party in Poland politicians the nationalist ideology based on Christian values in Poland was different from the nationalism in other countries, especially the Protestant ones. |
