Member of PiS Arkadiusz Mularczyk made public recently astonishing open letter to the President of the Institute of National Remembrance Lukasz Kaminski. Amazing, because the policies of the Law and Justice calls the state official that this had made the entering into force of the Act. Although Mularczyk himself this bill co-wrote and presented to the Sejm as rapporteur.
“The organizational changes made by the outgoing President of the Institute should be considered far-reaching hyperactivity, which feature it was difficult to see in action the president earlier in his tenure” – perorował the list Mularczyk. “These changes also perceive as a pretext to carry out personnel changes in leadership positions to obstruct the future president of the organization Memorial Institute under the covered strategy, these changes also involve far-reaching financial implications for the state budget.” “If the intention of the legislator was to introduce changes to the structure of the new management of the IPN, the Act would include the appropriate transitional or would otherwise fixed period of vacatio legis” – wrote Lukasz Kaminski author of the bill.
Yes rolled to the theater of the absurd, to which no one paid any attention. A draw is worth, because folk wisdom says that if you do not know what’s going on, it’s about money. And, of course, power. And in the case of the annual budget reaching 300 million zł it is what to share. At the same time, it would have been more fun hidden intentions activists PiS clearly clarifies open letter Mularczyk. “Also the consequent personnel changes made in the Memorial Institute for the outgoing president, justified by the necessity to change the basis of employment and ensuring the functioning of the Institute of Remembrance in the structure laid down in the amending Act, is not in any way justified by law, but may indicate an attempt to protect the interests of people involved Mr. President, “- says the MP. Indirectly acknowledging that the amendment of the Act on the IPN breaking the Office of Public Education into two divisions and a simultaneous change of the name of the vertical archive were designed to allow easy carrying of great purges.
The problem is that the authors of the amendment to the law have overlooked the need such formulate laws that personnel decisions were in the hands of the new president. The current head of the IPN (performing only the duties) hired so all the chiefs, heads of offices and directors of divisions in post officials and appointed performing managerial responsibilities.
Of course, the new president could easily these people dismiss, but no longer release. A serial government official can be thrown away from work, when – to quote classics – when drunk will travel lanes on the nun pregnant. In another case, it is difficult to spot. Theoretically, you could create new posts and executive positions filled with new people. But next year’s state budget will probably be very tight and IPN can not expect a radical increase of the fund. In a word, the new president may have to fill leadership positions old employees of the company.
In this situation comes to mind an anecdote, as in pre-war Warsaw held a funeral director Kazimierz Dunin-Markiewicz. Preaching over the grave farewell officials perorował long and flowery, enumerating the merits and successes of the deceased. Then, in the last words of farewell deceased Kazimierz Munin-Darkiewicza. In the silence after przejęzyczeniu, everyone heard stage whisper-known philosopher and erudite Franz Fiszera “But he rained. And the funeral for nothing.”
He led blind lame
the amended Act on the IPN contains many details that, on closer inspection, they can surprise. A breakdown of the Institute on the new organizational divisions, which was to serve the great purge, is just one of them. First, the new president will be a figurehead. Not only because it can be easily dismissed by the parliament, making it dependent on the ruling party. Much more interesting is the relationship between 9-passenger college, appointed for seven-year term, the members of which are virtually irremovable. Grape is not only “adopt the annual report of the President of the Institute of Remembrance of the Institute of Remembrance” – to quote from the unified Law of 16 June 2016. But also “expresses the opinions of submitted by the President of the Institute of Remembrance candidates for managerial positions at the Institute of Remembrance listed in Statute of the Institute of Remembrance. ” Which means that if you purge will be carried out, the college will be in their discretion over a hundred managerial jobs available.
When it is not possible to nine people and dependent on them the president of all time They were in all the same opinion. It is easy to imagine what gave it the ability to create systems of dependence and making informal business. A brilliant idea creators of the Act did not work out because of trivial oversight. The authors forgot to write that the new statute creates IPN president in consultation with the College. Deputy Mularczyk of the consequences of this omission realized only after the entry into force. He remained so desperate appeal in an open letter to the old president did not deal with the new statute. “Referring to the allegations of the Lord Envoy on the powers of the President of the IPN to the statute of the Institute, I note that according to the current wording of Art. 8, paragraph. 3 of the Act is the exclusive prerogative of the President of the IPN” – wrote Dr. Lukasz Kaminski accused of Mularczyk that realizing force the law gave the institute a new statute. “The issue was raised during parliamentary work, in which they both took part in. Mr. MP as a representative of the applicants strongly opposed notified postulate that the statute was approved by the College, as it was previously,” – he added, somewhat maliciously, Kaminski.
and that’s when the whole amendment of the Act really lost completely makes sense, as the official and hidden. To understand how this could happen, such an oddity and that was to serve, you should take a look at the main characters “brilliant plan” worthy of another film about the legendary gang Olsen.
Heroes changes
for the preparation of the new Act on the IPN deputy Arkadiusz Mularczyk has been co-opted by the end of February 2016. Previously, its assumptions and goals described tandem professors of history: Ryszard Terlecki and Vladimir Suleja. Both associated with the IPN since its inception. Invariably, showing also the ambition to use IPN for their own purposes.
Publicly widely known Ryszard Terlecki, chairman of the Parliamentary Club of Law and Justice, Deputy Speaker of the Sejm. He does not hide his colorful, hippie past, full of delicious anecdotes and memories from the compound of Kora Jackowska. “When the Bark sang” God Buenos “, a shiver passed back. I always thought it to be a very talented woman” – told in an interview with “Dziennik” in 2008. During the rally hippies in Mielno in 1968. He gave even a speech about that drugs are the way to liberation. Now consistently denies ever having used them. “I really had a lot of luck, because I hated injections, so no experiments with a syringe in my case is not out of the question. And other real drugs, except those derived from morphine, which is wstrzykiwało, was not” – said in the same interview.
After a turbulent youth Terlecki began to engage in the activities of the opposition. He collaborated with the Student Solidarity Committee, then the NRA during the martial law in the underground. Then he developed his academic career at the Jagiellonian University, and as an employee of the Krakow branch of IPN. However, the research historian always preferred policy . On behalf of the various parties she ran in the 90s to the Sejm and sat in Krakow City Council. At the same time the young LEWAK changed in the basic conservative emanating a sense of mission.
“I learned (…) that my father for more than thirty years with UB and SB, providing the requested reports and denunciations, and – for the better part of this period – charging for pay “- he wrote in 2003. in” Rzeczpospolita “, surveying the past of his father, a well-known writer and journalist, Olgierd Terlecki. “I changed my mind: secret documents to be disclosed. System crimes and lies today, you can not settle the judgments of the courts. He’s dead most of its authors and do not know how metamorphosis, which succumbed to their students, there are only a cynical game of appearances. Everything you can still do to prevent national amnesia “- explained Terlecki decision on disclosure of past father.
a lot of environmental historians went to the outpourings of the then head of the Office of Public Education IPN branch in Kraków, to put it mildly, without enthusiasm. Giving Terlecki malicious nickname “Pawka Morozov.” While having a great fondness for intellectuals title professorial Jaroslaw Kaczynski saw in the former hippie excellent material for the executor of their policies. Terlecki in 2006. Was the Law and Justice candidate for president of Krakow, and the following year finally got to the Parliament on behalf of that party. After resigning from the post of director of the Krakow branch of the IPN, which he held for a year, he started a real political career.
little other routes ran career prof. Vladimir Sulei. Instead, the color of youth Wroclaw historian can boast a solid scientific output and climbing up the career ladder science, first at the Institute of History at the University of Wroclaw, and then in the Pedagogical University of Zielona Gora. In the 80s collaborated with the Solidarity underground, and after the fall of communism in 1989. Movement of the Civic Democratic Action organized by Zbigniew Bujak and Wladyslaw Frasyniuk under the patronage of Adam Michnik and Jacek Kuron. With the grant Frasyniuk prof. Suleja was the first editor of the “Journal of Lower Silesia.” The letter after the year fell, and Wroclaw environment ROAD highly skonfliktowało each other.
Evolution of leftist, trying to rebuild Wroclaw prewar PPS, a policy close PiS followed with prof. Sulei gradually. It is complied with, the first president of the IPN prof. Leon Kieres autumn 2000. Proposed a former colleague from the army and the university job as director of the Wroclaw branch of the IPN. Only this position gave a real opportunity to establish close relations with the world of politics. After losing the PiS election in 2007. Wrocław branch of IPN created the position of Deputy Director, providing employment to former palatine dolnośląskiemu of PiS Krzysztof Grzelczykowi. He then made considerable trouble to the new principals. “Files SB, which were witness to the alleged cooperation of MEP Marcin Libicki from communist; neither history, examined the heads of Justice Krzysztof Grzelczyk – Deputy Director of the Wroclaw Institute of National Remembrance, a former PiS-ish province governor of Lower Silesia” – announced in mid-April 2009. “Gazeta Wyborcza”. As a result, wild lustration Marcin Libicki has been deleted from the electoral list PiS.
Grzelczyk, accused of abuse of official position and the sharing of classified material without the procedures, left the IPN. The Director Sulei nothing has changed, but his benevolent attitude towards the then opposition has been saved. What I paid off a few years later, when he was a leading expert in the parliamentary committee of PiS amending the Law on the IPN. Watching film recordings of its meetings, it is easy to note that the delegation members there not really orient themselves on the welds. And their opinion shaped by prof. Suleja and supporting him Marcin Stefanik, former director of the Szczecin branch of IPN. Incidentally, both experts said goodbye to dyrektorskimi seats in rather unusual circumstances. As for Dr. Stefanik, IPN official statement of June 2015. Spoke of “bad relationships” in the ward and “unsatisfactory results of the recovery program.” More succinctly sounded the statement of the Executive Committee of the Region Koszalin “Embankment” “Solidarity”. It says that: “The abuse of subordinates shattered dr. Marcin Stefaniak as a person capable of managing employees. The man who tramples the values of the dignity of the worker and his work, he should not perform managerial functions, especially in institutions exercising as IPN particular social mission. ” Even more intriguing is as farewell second expert PiS with IPN.
Where is the crux
Professor Vladimir Suleja stopped working in Wroclaw branch of IPN in September 2013 year. A year earlier, after a conversation with the president of Kaminski, resigned as a director, but remained on-time. However, the new director Robert Zurek decided to terminate the contract of employment with the professor. What immediately oprotestowało large group of historians. To the President of IPN received a petition in defense of prof. Sulei (and another employee of the institute released at the same time) signed by many renowned historians, including Ryszard Terlecki. Then The IPN, which sat many prominent scientists, such as Professor. Andrzej Paczkowski, Grzegorz Motyka, Andrzej Friszke and Antoni Dudek, supported the decision to release former director of the Wrocław branch. Issuing a statement that “the justification, based on the results of the audit carried out at the branch in Wroclaw IPN, accept as sufficient to decide on the prof. Sulei.”
unofficially talked about a record number of 82 irregularities in the functioning of the Wroclaw facility detected during the audit only covers the years 2011-2012. And also with considerable sums issued by the former director in a very vague way. In no way mind, however, that he supported Ryszard Terlecki and Arkadiusz Mularczyk in reforming the IPN.
Thanks for the effort at changing the law seemed obvious. “Prof. Vladimir Suleja and prof. Jan Draus are among the candidates for college IPN, which reports club of Law and Justice” – announced June 20 Polish Press Agency. Meanwhile, three days later at the College of IPN came just prof. Draus. According to leaks from the PiS parliamentary caucus results Wroclaw audit someone delivered up to the very top of the party. At the last moment came warrant replacement candidate for the college, because – as prescribed by recording a new law – he must “stand up strong moral character.” But it can be a simple misdirection and prof. Suleja groomed is the new president of the IPN. Although the authors of the satirical weekly columns “across the network” Robert Mazurek and Igor Zalewski, who for months pick out who will be nominated Justice, argue that this function has promised Dr. Jaroslaw Szarek from the Krakow branch of IPN. You have to remember that sometimes proved to belong to people who are particularly well informed.
The stock market candidates yet functioning names prof. Christopher Szwagrzyk and Law and Justice senator prof. John Żaryna. Although so far officially declared his candidacy only former vice president of IPN Dr. Paul Ukielski, no one gives him much chance. Everything has to decide probably on July 18, when the College of IPN will conduct a public hearing of candidates. And then recommend to elect their Parliament.
But regardless of who will be the new president, the institute finds in disarray organization, introduced by the new law. It was established according to the rules, which can be reduced to memorable for fans of the gang Olsen quote: “Egon has a plan.”
