In September 1980, an independent trade union called Solidarity was formed and was led by Lech Wałęsa. It was very popular and became the focus of the anti-Communist sentiments of the population. Following brutal repression and economic disaster, the Polish government made a series of unsuccessful reforms. The perestroika and glasnoist policies of Gorbachev eventually led the Polish government to enter talks with Solidarity, which resulted in semi-free elections being held in June 1989. When the popularity of Solidarity was made obvious from the results, the Polish prime minister resigned and a new, non-communist government was sworn in.

Solidarity was founded in Gdansk in September 1980 at the Lenin Shipyards, where Lech Wałęsa and others formed a broad anti-communist social movement ranging from people associated with the Catholic Church[2] to members of the anti-communist Left. Solidarity advocated non-violence in its members' activities.[3][4] In September 1981 Solidarity's first national congress elected Lech Wałęsa as a president[5] and adopted a republican program, the "Self-governing Republic"[6]. The government attempted to destroy the union with the martial law of 1981 and several years of repression, but in the end it had to start negotiating with the union. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solidarity
