Porady prawne udzielane na łamach Nowego Kuriera Warszawskiego w latach 1940–1944

Abstract

The article presents a study dedicated to the analysis of legal advice given in Nowy Kurier Warszawski, a Polish-language German newspaper published in the General Government during World War II. The publication is primarily based on an analysis of press sources, employing a quantitative research methodology. It aims to answer the following research questions: How much advice was given each year? What was the average distribution per issue? Which legal fields were covered by the legal advice, and in which fields was the most advice given? What was the distribution between legal advice regarding pre-war law and German legislation? What were the main types of cases (problems) within each category of the provided legal advice? To what extent, if at all, was legal advice instrumental in imposing the German perspective (interpretation of the law)? Through the analysis of the legal advice provided to readers, the author intends to present a partial picture of everyday life in the General Government. The thesis of the article posits that the legal advice published in Nowy Kurier Warszawski primarily had an informational character for the residents of the General Government, often concerning issues that extended far beyond the legal sphere. They were not a tool of propaganda for the German authorities’ legal system.
