Abstract

Young people became actively involved in organized fonns of opposition as soon as these had emerged in the latter half of the 1970s. Very soon they formed first independent youth organizations, represented at the time by the Student Solidarity Committees (SKS) and the New Poland Movement (RMP). Along with the nascent structures appeared the first press titles published by those groups. After the strikes of August 1980 and the rise of “Solidarity,” the publishing effort of young people intensified, but it reached its peak after the imposition of martial law. The article briefly presents the development of independent publications issued by young people in the years 1977-1990.
