Pilsudskiism

Pilsudskiism is a political ideology based on the ideas of Józef Piłsudski, a key Polish leader in the early 20th century. It emphasizes strong national independence, military strength, and a centralized government to ensure Poland’s security and sovereignty. While it promotes democratic elements, it also supports decisive leadership, sometimes through authoritarian measures, to maintain order. Pilsudskiism values patriotic pride, the unity of the Polish nation, and active resistance to external threats, shaping Poland’s political landscape during the interwar period and beyond.
