The Jewish Word (Polish: Słowo Żydowskie, Dos Jidisze Wort – Yiddish: דאס אידישע ווארט; stylized as SŁOשO ŻYDOWSKIE) is a bilingual periodical magazine published monthly in Polish and Yiddish.
[3][1] In the 1950s the publishing rights were transferred to the Social and Cultural Association of Jews in Poland (TSKŻ), which was founded after the merging of the Central Committee of Jews in Poland with the Jewish Society of Culture and Art.
[4] However, the Polish United Workers' Party (PZPR) had direct control over the newspaper's editors and enforced censorship.
[3] The number of readers gradually decreased due to the emigration of Polish Jews following World War II.
The 1968 political crisis and an anti-Semitic campaign orchestrated by the communist party caused several branches of the publication to be closed, particularly in the Lower Silesia region.
