Polarisation is a term we often use to describe attitudes and explain current events. But do we not abuse it to describe a complex social reality - which is far removed from the image created by the media? What is really going on in Poland and Germany, and where are the axes of dispute?

The Krzyżowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe together with the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Poland organised an online debate which took place on 3 December.

In the discussion took part:

Basil Kerski (Director of the European Solidarity Centre),

Lutz Rathanow (Saxon State Plenipotentiary for Overcoming the Dictatorship of the SED).

The meeting was moderated by Dr Katarzyna Grzybowska-Walecka (UKSW).

The debate was interpreted simultaneously.
