National Party (1989)

The National Party (Polish: Stronnictwo Narodowe (SN)) – is a political party in Poland which was reactivated in 1989 in Warsaw by Jan Ostoja Matłachowski, Leon Mirecki, Maciej Giertych, Bogusław Jeznach, Bogusław Rybicki and others as the successor to the pre-war National Party. Its first chairman was Stefan Jarzębski. The re-activated SN was officially registered on 21 August 1990.

The party adheres to the tradition of endecja, mainly the ideas of Roman Dmowski. The party opposed Poland's membership in the EU and NATO.

In the Polish parliamentary election 1991, the party won 74 082 votes, i.e. 0,66%.

In 1992, the party underwent a split, as one faction led by Bogusław Rybicki formed the Stronnictwo Narodowe “Ojczyzna” (National Party “Fatherland”), which advocated anti-Semitic and anti-German views.[1]
