Pope John Paul IIs Political Influence In Eastern
Europe :
A 15 page paper looking at John Pauls entire papacy, but
focusing on his role in the fall of communism in Eastern
Europe. There is an old saying among Christians admonishing
them not to be so heavenly-minded that theyre no earthly
good. Pope John Paul lives the exhortation, and without risk of
failing to be of any earthly good. To say that Pope John Paul
II was instrumental in the fall of communism in Eastern
Europe is far more than simple understatement. Though the
US was involved at the level of Ronald Reagan and William
Casey, it was John Paul II who determined which course of
action would be taken in Poland when there was disagreement
over the best ways to support Solidarity while it was illegal. A
committed anticommunist, John Paul caused the entire Catholic
community to be supportive of the work of Solidarity in
Poland. Bibliography lists 10 sources. Johnpaul.wps
Radek Sikorskis Full Circle: A Homecoming to
Free
Poland: This 5 page report discusses Radek Sikorski, author
of Full Circle, ideas surrounding the concept that a nation
may be restored in much the same way a fine old building can
be restored, especially if that building is seen as a home not just
a structure. He uses his stories of the reconstruction of the
house to reconstruct the stories of his own childhood in a
Communist country and the stories of his family and its
heritage. He also tells of his work as an international journalist
with a brief stint as a Polish government official. Full Circle
is about much more than the fall of Communism, the
rebuilding of Poland, or the restoration of an old house. No
