Polygraph Examinations in the Secret Services of the People’s Republic of Poland

Journal Title: European Polygraph - Year 2017, Vol 42, Issue 4

Abstract

In the days of the Warsaw Pact, Poland, at the time offi cially and constitutionally the People’s Republic of Poland, diverged from other members of the Warsaw Pact. Poland had individual farms throughout the time, and aft er 1956 the Catholic Church operated in principle without obstacles, culture developed basically without hindrance despite the official censorship, and the communist regime itself was not as oppressive as in the other states of the Eastern Bloc. Th e role of intelligence and counterintelligence agencies in the structure of organs of the state, as well as their organisation and competences, were, however, fundamentally similar to those in the other states of the bloc, dependent on the USSR.
