Abstract

Poland's budgetary position has shifted dramatically over the past three years. A large deficit emerged in 1989, there was a huge swing to surplus in 1990, and a return to deficit in 1991. These shifts resulted, first, from the collapse of the communist fiscal system and, then, from the macroeconomic and structural forces set in motion by the economic transformation process.
