[Congress of scientific and socio-professional milieus from all the lands of partitioned Poland, 1869-1914].
The current paper forms the second part of the article entitled "We are and want to be". On the organization and statistics of congresses of Polish scientific and socio-professional milieus from all the lands of partitioned Poland, 1869-1914", published in the 3-4/2004 issue of "Kwartalnik Historii Nauki i Techniki". The first part of the publication presented the conditions in which congresses and meetings of medical and naturalist milieus from all the lands of partitioned Poland were organized. The second part deals with contacts among the remaining scientific and professional groups. The aim of the study was to show the development of ties between scientific and socio-professional milieus from the different lands of partitioned Poland. It has been ascertained that the congresses became a major and permanent meeting place for scientists and specialists in different fields from all over Poland, as well as a forum for the exchange of professional experiences and the presentation of achievements in the respective domains. This is corroborated by the cyclical nature of the majority of such meetings (apart from physicians and naturalists, regular meetings were held by technicians, lawyers and economists, as well as historians and historians of literature), by the ample participation in such meeting by representatives from all the three partitions and by emigres, and finally also by the subject-matter raised at the meetings.
