This book draws on public opinion surveys conducted in Poland
during the Solidarity era to examine popular attitudes on
fundamental issues of political power and on the dramatic political
events of 1980 1982. These surveys, unprecedented for a communist
regime, offer a unique portrait of the values and attitudes of a
population in a society undergoing profound social, economic and
political change. The study focuses on the citizens, who are often
overlooked in studies of communist systems. As such, it provides a
fresh look at the Solidarity experience from the public's point of
view. It details the sources of support and opposition for the
regime, the Solidarity leadership, and the policies of each. For
example, support for Solidarity declined during 1981, but it
remained strong, and there was little popular support for the
hardline measures employed by the regime.
