1. In Poland, a single communist party ruled in 1980, called the Polish United Workers’ Party. No other political party existed and the people were denied the freedom of speech and expression and the right to choose their leaders.
2. On August 14, 1980 a worker’s strike at the Lenin Shipyard of Gdansk, changed the picture in Poland. The strike began because a woman crane operator was unjustly dismissed. As the strike continued a new leader came forward. He was Lech Walesa who was an electrician dismissed from service in 1976 for demanding higher pay.
3. The strike spread in the whole city and new demands were added which included the right to form independent unions, freedom for political prisoners and end of press censorship. The movement’s popularity forced the government to sign a 21 point agreement with the workers and a new trade union, Solidarity, was formed.
4. Within a year Solidarity had more than one crore members across Poland and it exposed the corruption and mismanagement of the government. General Jaruzelski, the head of the government , imposed Martial law in December 1981 and thousands were put in prison and freedom of speech and expression was taken away.
5. The Solidarity struck with a new wave of strikes in 1988. Another agreement was signed in 1989 and free elections were held. In 1990, Poland had its first free multiple party election in which Lech Walesa became the President. A democratic government , chosen by the people was established in Poland and freedom of speech and expression restored again.
