W SPRAWIE GENEZY KONFEDERACJI MACIEJA BORKOWICA

Maciej Borkowic’s confederation was signed in 1352 by 84 knights form Greater Poland. It didn’t have one or two causes, but it was combination of few economic and politically-social factors, which toward to outbreak. In this paper, I’ll try to wonder about all this causes and connected them to raising disappointment of Casmir the Great reign’s in the Greater Poland. That dissatisfaction increased law in forced, limitation in trade with Wroclaw, lack of participation in ruling beside Casmir the Great and newly created united Greater Poland’s general eldership, which was entrusted to the foreigner from Śląsk – Wierzbięta of Palowice. This last cause was the trigger to outbreak the Confederation, which leader was Maciej Borkowic.
