The "Polish October" was a period of political upheaval in Poland in 1956 and it demonstrated that the Polish people had not lost their traditional values and sense of independence. Despite pressure from the Soviet Union to conform to the Communist system, the Polish people resisted and called for political reforms. While the Soviet Union did not tolerate any deviation from the Soviet line, the "Polish October" showed that reform of a Communist system was possible if there was enough popular demand and support. The fight for the freedom of their bishops was a component of the larger movement for political reform in Poland. The Polish capitalists were not the main focus of this uprising.
