Abstract
- The article presents information about politics and social change in Poland. The present paper deals with selected problems of relationships between politics and social change in a socialist society Poland. The author do not ate tempt to make it cross-nationally valid, through extensive comparisons between various socialist countries; some concept discussed, however, in the first part relate to general characteristics of the socialist society, rather than to specific Polish conditions. Social change is a broad concept. The major aspect of social change in Poland, as well as in other socialist societies, is a transformation of backward, mostly agricultural economy into developed industrial one. The process of industrialization-constitutes the major aspect of social change in Poland. Therefore, this discussion is mostly related to the interrelations between politics and industrialization, or-to put it differently-to the political problems of industrialization. Discussing the problem of political aspects of social change, the author pays a special attention to local politics.
