This paper examines the political dynamics surrounding the Jews of Poland during World War I, focusing on the efforts of the Komitee in promoting national rights for Jews and their political representation within a new Polish political entity. It discusses the collaboration with German authorities, the strategic lobbying for the Austro-Polish solution, and the implications for Slavic influence within the Austrian Empire. The analysis culminates in assessing the successes and failures of the joint political initiatives, thus providing a nuanced understanding of Jewish political aspirations and their intersection with major power interests during the war.
