Description
Relations between the Bund and the Polish Socialist Party in interwar Poland were characterized by intermittent friction, mutual suspicion, and occasional collaboration alternating with repeated failures to work out common platforms and programs of action. Both were Marxist in their orientation; both were in principle dedicated to the abolition of the capitalist order and the creation of a socialist system. The Bund was vocal in demanding cultural, personal and administrative autonomy for the Jewish community - the PPS was hostile to these aims
