description Topical reviews of Polish samizdat publications in English prepared by RFE staff members to be used by different national broadcasting units. PIPR was published from 1986 until November 1989 as a continuation of Polish Underground Extracts (PUE). Independent Publishing Adjusts to New Conditions / by Anna PomianFollowing the installation of the Mazowiecki government, independent publishing appears to be going through an uncertain transitional phase as it attempts to come to terms with the new situation. Reactions of Fighting Solidarity to the Recent Changes in Poland / by Witold PronobisThe clandestine Fighting Solidarity organization is the strongest critic of the "constructive opposition" and Lech Wałęsa's political views. Is the Solidarity Trade Union in Decline? / by Anna PomianThe Solidarity trade union has so far failed to generate the same grassroots enthusiasm and large-scale membership that it enjoyed during its previous legal existence in 1980 and 1981. Among the reasons cited for this are: the movement's general crisis of identity as its takes on an increasingly political role; the fact that workers have become far more pragmatic in pursuing their material interests; a lack of expertise among Solidarity activists in the factories; and a lack of democratic procedures within the organization. "What Do Soviet Soldiers Think?" / by Anna PomianA recent article in a Polish independent weekly presented some ideas on the composition, internal relations, and outlook of the Soviet Army troops stationed in Poland. "Tygodnlk Mazowsze" Closes Down / by Witold PronobisThe popular independent publication "Tygodnik Mazowsze" closed down on 12 April 1989. Despite its title, which suggests a regional newspaper, Tygodnik Mazowsze had a nationwide readership and represented Lech Wałęsa's political views.
