This authoritative volume assesses how the recently democratised political system in Poland is adapting to the challenges posed by the country's desire to "rejoin Europe". Its excellent panel of highly respected Polish academics considers various issues not generally well-known to the English-speaking world, but of great importance in the light of Poland's impending entry into the European Union. This book is the first English-language study of this subject, and highlights key themes and issues ordinarily unavailable to the non-specialist. Its authors demonstrate that the evolution of political forms and life in Poland is related to, and sometimes governed by, Poland's desire to join the EU. Subjects covered include; * the changing nature of Poland's foreign policy * the value system of Polish politics * the changing nature of party politics * the reform of public administration and local government * bilateral relations with Ukraine and Germany. Poland and the European Union is essential reading for students of Polish politics, and for all those interested in EU enlargement.
