Abstract

The current phase of the transformation of subnational government in Poland has been in progress since 1990. In its chronological dimension the process has been marked by three major events: the 1990 reform establishing territorial self-government at the municipal level; the 1999 reform establishing district- and region-level self-government; and — last but not least — Poland’s accession to the European Union in 2004. The three events have been accompanied by large-scale institution building and an introduction of novel legal frameworks. In addition to the legal-institutional changes, the progressive transformation of subnational government in Poland has, however, also encompassed several other dimensions, including modes of policy making, patterns of agency, and public discourse.
