Workers' Councils in Poland

Workers' Councils in Poland or Councils of Workers' Delegates in Poland (Polish: Rady Delegatów Robotniczych w Polsce) were representative organs of workers and peasants, set up towards the end of the First World War on Polish territories. The councils were dismantled around July 1919, following the withdrawal of the Polish Socialist Party (which in many cases had a council majority), and suppression by the Polish government, which saw the councils as a barrier to the formation of a Polish state.
