Socialist Realism in Poland

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Socialist realism in Poland (Polish: socrealizm) was an official Communist doctrine used by the pro-Soviet government in the process of forcible Stalinization of the postwar People's Republic of Poland. The policy was introduced in 1949 by a decree of the Polish United Workers' Party Minister (later, Minister of Culture and Art) Wlodzimierz Sokorski. As in all Soviet-dominated Eastern Bloc countries, Socialist realism became the main instrument of political control in the building of totalitarianism. However, the trend has never become truly dominant. Following Stalin's death on March 5, 1953, and the subsequent destalinization of all People's Republics, Polish artists, writers and architects started abandoning it around 1955. Destalinization process peaked during the Polish October.
