POLISH TRANSFORMATION FROM POST-COLONIAL PERSPECTIVE
Abstract
The paper consists of four parts. The first one outlines the main, general theses of the author’s
deliberations, the second presents the basic assumptions of the post-colonial theory, or perspective,
the third contains a brief characteristics o f the mechanism o f changes after 1989, and the fourth offers
evaluation of selected effects o f transformation from the perspective of the adopted theory.
The climate for political transformations in Poland was unfavourable and it was largely carried
“blindfold”. Consequently, its consequences were both positive and negative. The positive effects have
many supporters o f the transformation, while the negative ones are much less frequently quoted.
From the post-colonial perspective, the main negative effects include: the debt loop, sub-standard
political culture (of citizens and politicians), quasi-tribal attitudes, good climate for corruption,
impaired feeling of safety and various pathologies observed in different areas o f public life.
