• Description:
  TARGETED BY THE SECRET SERVICES OF THE PRL. THE CASE OF ALEKSANDER DEMIDECKI-DEMIDOWICZ Who was Aleksander Demidecki-Demidowicz. Without a doubt he was one of the most prominent politicians in exile in France. He was famous for his ability to win people over and to cooperate with people of different political views. His significance and role is best illustrated by the fact that in 1958 he was unanimously chosen as the leader of the Division of the National Council of Poland. It is no wonder that the intelligence services of the PRL government were interested in him. What were the consequences? Did Demidecki-Demidowicz really collaborate with the PRL authorities, or did he just play along in order to find out the plans of the communist secret service towards Polish emigrants? Was he alone in this peculiar „game?” Did he notify the leadership of his party about the collaboration? Perhaps he was cooperating with the French or American secret service? This article is a renewed attempt to figure out Demidecki-‑Demidowicz—yet this time from the point of view of a researcher and a historian.
