The book presents the activity of the Jewish Labour Bund in the territory of post-Yalta Poland in the years 1944-1949. The work focuses on the “last chapter” of the party’s activity in Poland. It touches upon issues concerning the attempts to modify/re-evaluate the political agenda of the party in the new, post-war reality (including the lack of its pre-war leaders on all levels of organisation), as well as a description of its activity, its importance and position in the Jewish world, starting from the foundation of the Lublin Bund Committee in the autumn of 1944 until 16 January 1949, which marked the last stage of the self-dissolution of the Bund in Poland. At the same time, it needs to be added that the image of the Jewish socialists is presented from the perspective of the Jewish community in Poland and beyond (mostly in North America), primarily from the point of view of the very members of the party.
