Evolution of Municipal Authorities as an Element of Poland’s Systemic Transformation after 1989
Abstract
The systemic transformation in Poland affected virtually all spheres of the country’s social and economic life.
One of its important elements was the restitution of the local government, which was both the object and
the subject of the transformation processes. Based on the analysis of statutory regulations regarding the
strengthening of the position of the executive body of the municipality, the paper confirms the thesis that
the municipal government was subject to system transformation and that it maintained its subjectivity in the
process of introducing new systemic solutions.
The analysis used the institutional and legal analysis method, as well as the comparative and behavioral
method.
