Summary / Abstract (Note)THE TERM "politics of history" emerged as a category of political practice first in the 1980s in Germany and then in the 2000s in Poland. Russian historian Alexey Miller comments that the politics of history is a special set of methods involving the use of state administrative and financial resources in the field of history and politics of memory in the interests of the ruling elite [10, p. 19]. In practical terms, the politics of history is a political tool that aims to rally the nation around a historical narrative. In general, as the German historian Jan Assmann emphasizes, the politics of history studies public debates and political and administrative decisionmaking, and its essential characteristic is the adoption of normative legal acts
