In the autumn of 1989, a discussion was initiated concerning the future of the communist party in Poland, which was meant to prevent this process and prepare party members for the 11th PUWP congress. The article presents documents of the 262 Łukasz Komorowski Provincial Congress Committee found in the National Archive in Poznań. They are an interesting source of information on the history of PUWP and the mindset of its members in the Poznań province in the final period of the party’s existence.
