He studied chemistry in Vienna, Mulhouse and Paris, where he was a researcher at the ''Conservatoire des Arts et Métiers'' and was an assistant to Frédéric Joliot-Curie. ==Communist Party== Finder graduated as a chemical engineer. From 1922 to 1924 he was a member of the Austrian Communist Party, and from 1924 to 1928 of the French Communist Party, serving in the Central Committee apparatus and writing articles for ''l'Humanité''. He was expelled from France for Communist activity in 1928 and returned to Poland. He completed military service in officer school. He was active in the underground Communist Party of Poland (KPP) until his arrest in 1934, serving as secretary in Silesia, Łódź, Warsaw and Kraków, and as a member of the National Secretariat in 1933. He was arrested in 1934 and sentenced to 12 years' imprisonment. During the German and Soviet invasions of Poland in September 1939 he was able to flee Rawicz prison and went to the Soviet Union. He worked in the planning commission of the local authority established in Soviet-occupied Białystok, becoming its chairman early in 1941. Finder fled to Moscow when the Germans invaded and directed to the Comintern training school as a leader of the 'initiative group' formed to re-establish the Communist movement in Poland. On 27 December 1941 he parachuted into Poland. In the troika that formed and led the PPR (with Marceli Nowotko and Bolesław Mołojec), he provided intellectual and ideological support for Nowotko. He succeeded him as secretary in January 1943, following the murder of Nowotko and the subsequent execution of Mołojec. Finder was arrested by the Gestapo on 14 December 1943 and imprisoned in Pawiak. He was identified, tortured and shot by the Nazis in the ruins of the Warsaw ghetto as they evacuated and demolished Pawiak in July 1944. His second wife, Gertruda Finder, was a KPP activist and worked in the Polish security apparatus after the war. His first wife, by whom he had a daughter, died in France in the 1920s. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paweł Finder」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
