=== Modern ZHP ===
In [[1956]], after [[Joseph Stalin|Stalin's]] and [[Boleslaw Bierut|Bierut's]] death, the communist party youth movement ZMP OH was transformed and renamed to ZHP. However the new ZHP did not consider itself as a continuation of the pre-war ZHP, but as a new organization (until 1980). After [[1958]] many pre-war instructors were removed from the new ZHP or marginalized (like [[Aleksander Kamiński]]) and the original oath, law, educational content and methods were changed (mention of God was removed from oath, [[Lenin]] introduced as a hero, the [[Bolshevik Revolution]] was commemorated, the brigades became co-educational).

Despite this, the Polish Scouting and Guiding Association became one of the very few official organizations that retained some independence from the communist party. Because of this, its growth was rapid, and in [[1980]] it had more than three million active members. The Polish Scouts were engaged in a variety of duties, varying from helping in the fields of the most poor regions to organizing the visits of Pope John Paul II. After the [[martial law in Poland|martial law]] was imposed in [[1981]] the ZHP was the only large social organization not to be banned. The "VIII ZHP Convention" even supported the [[martial law in Poland|martial law]]. However, many of its high ranking officials were interned because of their involvement in the [[Solidarność]] movement.

In [[1989]] after the period of peaceful transformation began, many groups of instructors formed separate Scouting organizations (like the [[Związek Harcerstwa Rzeczypospolitej|ZHR]]<ref>second largest Scouting organization in Poland, 15.000 members</ref>, [[SHK Zawisza]]<ref>member of the [[Union Internationale des Guides et Scouts d'Europe]]</ref> or '''ZHP-1918'''<ref>shortlived attempt to refound pre-war ZHP</ref>). At the same time the main ZHP returned to some of the pre-war traditions: e.g. the original oath and Scouts Law were reintroduced. In [[1993]] [[Lech Wałęsa]] became the honorary protector of the ZHP, just like all former Polish presidents. In [[1996]] the ZHP rejoined the [[World Organization of the Scout Movement]].
