Abstract

"The New Politics of Poland: A Case of Post-Traumatic Sovereignty" by Jarosław Kuisz explores the rise of the Law and Justice party in Poland from 2015 to 2023. The book delves into the party's conservative social values, anti-EU sentiments, and democratic backsliding, attributing these to Poland's historical trauma of being conquered by larger neighbors. Kuisz provides a detailed analysis of the factors contributing to the far-right party's success, including economic growth, redistributive policies, support from the Catholic Church, conservative social values, and divisions within the opposition. Despite the book's completion before the 2023 election, it remains a valuable resource for understanding Polish politics over the past decade. [Extracted from the article]
