Abstract:
Beginning in 1950, the Polish Red Cross began large-scale sanitary training in Poland. Within five years, a total of over five million people were trained. Those who completed the courses formed a network of sanitary networks operating on the principle of collective aid, i.e., joint action for the benefit of the community. The official motivation for these activities was sanitary and preventive education, particularly important in the face of infectious diseases spreading after World War II. However, the real goal was to train as many people as possible – particularly adolescents and young adults during the escalation of the Cold War – and to create a collective society through appropriate youth education. This article presents the training assumptions and the mechanisms for creating ‘sanitary collectivism’ in Poland between 1950 and 1955.
