Increasing opposition from the right-wing Law and Justice (PiS) could serve to undermine the authority of the government, particularly over the pace of fiscal reform. The general government deficit, calculated according to EU harmonised (ESA 95) methodology, is forecast at 3% of GDP in 2013, shrinking from 5.1% in 2011 and an estimated 3.7% in 2012. Real GDP grew by 4.3% in 2011, driven by strong domestic demand and exports. We estimate it to decelerate to 2.4% in 2012. Export growth will be slow, owing to a recession in the euro zone and weak domestic demand. Inflation is estimated to remain high in 2012, at an average of 3.6%, stoked by the volatility of the zloty. It is expected to fall to an annual average of 2.7% in 2013-17, within the target range set by the central bank. The current-account deficit is expected to continue shrinking in 2012, to 3.8% of GDP, as the impact on imports of weak domestic demand outweighs the impact on exports of weakening external demand. Review For the first time in five years, the main right-wing opposition party, Law and Justice (PiS), has moved ahead of the PO in the opinion polls. Relations between the two parties remain tense. In his keynote parliamentary speech in mid-October, Mr Tusk announced a growth stimulus package for the economy, which includes new fixed investment and the diversion of privatisation revenue to the budget. Consumer price inflation stabilised in September. At 3.8% year on year, it was unchanged from August, despite higher fuel prices. Seasonally adjusted industrial output dropped by 1.4% year on year in September, in the first notable decline since September 2009. Seasonally adjusted construction output fell by 9.5% year on year in September, and continues to act as a drag on headline growth. In the 12 months to August the current-account deficit narrowed to Zl 63.5bn (US$19bn; around 4.1% of GDP) from Zl 74.5bn (4.9% of GDP) in 2011. Outlook for 2013-17 Political stability A two-party coalition government, in power since the parliamentary election in October 2011, holds a small but workable majority in parliament. The coalition comprises the centre-right Civic Platform (PO), the largest party, and the rural-based Polish Peasants' Party (PSL). The PO leader, Donald Tusk, governs as prime minister in a second consecutive term in office. The opposition is divided between the conservative Law and Justice (PiS), the Democratic Left Alliance (SLD), and Palikot's Movement (RP), led by Janusz Palikot. The SLD emerged from the election politically weakened, and it is no longer the dominant party of the centre-left. The Economist Intelligence Unit expects Poland to be governed by a coalition throughout the forecast period. The constitution is designed to protect incumbent governments from early dismissal, thereby buttressing political stability. The president, Bronislaw Komorowski, comes from the PO, which favours the stability and continuity of a PO-PSL pairing. If a PiS-led administration were to return to power, it would probably be unstable, not least because cohabitation between a PiS-led government and Mr Komorowski would create considerable legislative uncertainty and ideological divisions. However, a coalition government formed between the PiS and other centre-right and centre- left parties could produce a more stable alliance in the medium term. Country Report November 2012 www.eiu.com © Economist Intelligence Unit Limited 2012 Poland 3 Election watch Poland faces three important elections during the forecast period. An election to the European Parliament is scheduled for mid-2014. The next general election is scheduled for late 2015. The possibility of voter weariness with the PO by 2014-15 could facilitate Mr Tusk's decision to run for the presidency in 2015. The PiS has regrouped following the parliamentary election in 2011. Its efforts to appeal to potential new voters appear to be yielding results, and its popularity ratings are rising. However, recent defections from the party have resulted in the formation of a new parliamentary faction, United Poland. The PiS could eventually provide a stronger challenge to the PO, particularly if its popularity ratings continue to rise steadily. The left-wing SLD suffered its worst recorded defeat in October 2011. It will need to rebuild its voter base, focusing on boosting support from the growing urban middle class. International relations Poland's presidency of the EU ended in December 2011. The government will seek to increase Poland's influence within the EU, advocating deeper European integration. In March 2012 Poland (alongside 24 other EU members) signed the new EU fiscal treaty encouraging budgetary responsibility. Poland appears to be supportive of the German stance on fiscal austerity. It is also favours new pan-European initiatives proposed by the European Commission, such as the creation of a banking union. The government will lobby hard to preserve the flow of EU funds to Poland in the EU budget for 2014-20, although it is highly unlikely to secure as much as it did in the previous budget round. The government has worked hard on the issue of restoring Polish-Russian diplomatic relations following the Smolensk air crash in April 2010, as part of its attempt to shed Poland's anti-Russian image within the EU, and so shore up its alliance with France and repair strained ties with Germany. Nonetheless, disagreements over the Nord Stream pipeline will continue to blight Polish-Russian relations. The security relationship between Poland and the US should remain close, although Poland's readiness to participate in future NATO-led missions could wane. Policy trends Economic policy in the immediate future is likely to be preoccupied with demonstrating fiscal prudence in order to bolster market confidence and demonstrate creditworthiness. This will be important to facilitate the continued servicing of loans without resorting to the flexible credit line (FCL) with the IMF, which is worth US$29.5bn and is due to expire in early 2013. However, with the recent announcement of fiscal loosening in the short term, the government's main preoccupation will be to encourage domestic stimulus for economic growth.

  • UEFA EURO 2012™ in the Polish Sociopolitical Narration
    PHYSICAL CULTURE AND SPORT. STUDIES AND RESEARCH DOI: 10.1515/pcssr-2015-0025 UEFA EURO 2012™ in the Polish Sociopolitical Narration Authors’ contribution: Tomasz Michaluk A-E, Krzysztof Pezdek A-E A) conception and design of the study University School of Physical Education in Wrocław, Poland B) acquisition of data C) analysis and interpretation of data D) manuscript preparation E) obtaining funding ABSTRACT Sport constitutes an increasingly popular language of discourse in modern societies, providing a (formal) system of signs, which is easily used by, among others, businesses, media, public persons, and, particularly willingly, politicians. Thus, sport as a system of meanings can transfer any values, being at the same time a pragmatic way of arguing in the practice of social life. An example we analyze, are the events that took place after Poland (and Ukraine) had been chosen to be host countries of UEFA EURO 2012™, as well as those which took place during the tournament itself. In these analyses, we use the concept of semiotics and, in particular, pragmatism as well as Charles Sanders Peirce’s triadic sign relation. KEYWORDS UEFA EURO 2012, sport, values, semiotics, Peirce Introduction In free and democratic Poland, member of the European Union since 2004, a tournament of the size and importance of the European Championship was organized for the first time in 2012. In April 2007, UEFA 1 chose Poland and Ukraine (non-EU member) as host countries of UEFA EURO 2012™. This measurably influenced a whole body of political, economic, and social processes that took place within the country. After five years of preparation, the tournament took place in June 2012 in sports facilities the majority of which were built or renovated especially for this purpose; and the final match was played in the stadium in Kiev, Ukraine, on 1 July 2012.

  • Forward Guidance and the Private Forecast Disagreement – Case of Poland
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Forward Guidance and the private forecast disagreement – case of Poland Rybacki, Jakub SGH Warsaw School of Economics - Collegium of Economic Analysis 13 June 2019 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/94465/ MPRA Paper No. 94465, posted 15 Jun 2019 08:14 UTC Jakub Rybacki1 Forward Guidance and the private forecast disagreement – case of Poland Abstract During the period of policy easing in 2013 and prospective tightening in 2017-2019 the National Bank of Poland (NBP) applied the forward guidance to manage expectations of market participants. The goal of such a policy was to lower the uncertainty related to the future decisions of the Monetary Policy Council. We attempt to verify whether the central bank’s communication indeed reduced disagreement, based on the results of the professional forecasters’ survey. We found that the forward guidance policy introduced in 2013 lowered the perceived interest rate risk in both one-year and two-year horizons. On the other hand, abandoning the policy in 2014 increased the disagreement in the disproportionately large manner. The more pronounced forward guidance reintroduced in 2017 again allowed to reduce short-term uncertainty. However, it took over a year to strengthen the impact reducing the disagreement especially in case of two-year forecasts. The forward guidance most likely prevented increase of disagreement during the so called NBP image crisis in the late 2018 and in the first quarter of 2019. Overall our research highlights that it is relatively easy to lose confidence with ill-considered communication, but building credibility requires systematic long work.

Żurawia 4a, 00-503 Warszawa e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] http://www.cbos.pl (48 22) 629 35 69 W obecnym miesiącu miną dwa lata od zaprzysiężenia drugiego rządu premiera Donalda Tuska. Niemal od początku jego funkcjonowania nie cichną dywagacje na temat ewentualnych zmian personalnych, a od wielu miesięcy w mediach pojawiają się informacje o planach dotyczących poważnej rekonstrukcji. Pewne zmiany zapowiedział sam premier. W październikowym sondażu1 spytaliśmy Polaków o ocenę poszczególnych ministrów i stosunek do ewentualnej rekonstrukcji rządu. OCENA MINISTRÓW Na ranking najlepiej i najgorzej ocenianych ministrów duży wpływ ma stopień rozpoznawalności poszczególnych członków rządu. Mało znani ministrowie2 są rzadko wskazywani zarówno jako dobrzy, jak i źli ministrowie. Najlepiej ocenianym ministrem, dystansującym pozostałych członków rządu, jest minister spraw zagranicznych Radosław Sikorski (33%). Na drugim miejscu znalazł się minister kultury i dziedzictwa narodowego Bogdan Zdrojewski (17%). Niemal co ósmy Polak uważa, że najlepiej swoje obowiązki pełnią premier Donald Tusk (13%) i wicepremier Janusz Piechociński (12%). Piątym z najlepiej ocenianych ministrów jest minister administracji i cyfryzacji Michał Boni (10%). Stosunkowo niewielu Polaków za najlepszego ministra uznało kierującego resortem
