Zadruga was a Slavic-national movement – using today’s terminology you could also call it an “identitarian” one. Officially, it appeared in 1937, when periodical “Zadruga”, which was published in 1937-1939, was issued for the first time. Despite not many members, this movement can be described as significant. Its creator – Jan “Stoigniew” Stachniuk created an original thought – a philosophical system called by him “Culturalism”, or “evolutionary pantheism”. ‚e movement itself is also significant, because it is – next to the Christian, National Democratic nationalism – the second pillar of Polish nationalism, i.e. of a Slavic, neopagan character – in a word, “Zadrugian” character. ‚e literature is still quite scarce, despite several book publications on the subject. Stanislaw Potrzebowski has already been dealing with Zadruga for several decades, what you can learn from the Foreword. He received the PhD degree in Bonn in 1983. His dissertation was titled: Za druga – Eine völkische Bewegung in Polen on Zadruga. His book Słowiański ruch Zadruga (Slavic movement Zadruga) is not so much a translation of the first work, but a new work written for the Polish readers.
