Born in Kraków on the 11th of January, 1904. Soon after completing the secondary school, he took part in the Polish-Soviet war of 1920; then he entered the Polytechnic (Higher Technical School) in Gdańsk. Next he complemented his education at the Paris Institute of Political Sciences. He was an active member of the Camp of Great Poland (OWP). Impressed by Roman Dmowski he joined the National Party (SN), in which he gradually began to play more and more significant part, especially in the field of ideology, though his views on economic matters were not commonly accepted by the Party’s members. During the Second World War, he fought as a volunteer in the September Campaign and then took up political activity in opposition to General Sikorski’s government. In 1946 he illegally returned to Poland, where he was apprehended, tried, and sentenced to death. Doboszyński was executed in 1949. His major works include Gospodarka narodowaEkonomia miłosierdziaTeoria naroduSłowo ciężarne (a novel), and Prokurator Cholewa (a one-act play).
