Both the national Board of the PTE and our Branches are open to such cooperation. The Bulletin is also addressed to economists of Polish origin, who for many years have lived abroad, whether as academics or in busi- ness. With many of them we maintain constant cooperation; they participate in our seminars and congresses. Some of them have sent their cVs which we have posted on our website (www.pte.pl). We are very keen on expanding such cooperation and we hope that our Bulletin will contribute to this. This may be scientific, business, or organizational cooperation. At the same time through the Bulletin we encourage you to be- come interested in Poland and in the changes in its socio-economic situation. Poland owes its economic successes among others to in- vestments. Therefore, in the Bulletin, we present information on the Polish Investments for Development as an institution oriented on measures to intensify infrastructure investment in Poland.

In People’s Poland, the Poles wrote tens of millions of letters, complaints, and requests, but also incriminating letters addressed to the Party leadership, state and economic administra- tion, as well as to cooperatives.

THE INTERWAR PERIOD 1918 1939 AND THE POSTWAR ERA AFTER 1945 When Poland restored its independence in 1918, China was immersed in post-revolution chaos. A! er the Revolution of 1911, which overthrown the Qing dynasty, the attempts to implement multi-parties, parliamentary democracy based on the western model have failed completely.

Odpowiedzialność parlamentarna Rady Ministrów w okresie obowiązywania konstytucji z 22 lipca 1952 r. Przez wiele lat władza przedstawiała się jako monolit, co najwyżej ujawniano, i to dopiero po jakimś czasie, konflikty personalne. Był to obraz nieprawdziwy1. 1. Wprowadzenie; 2. Konstytucyjna regulacja zmian w składzie Rady Ministrów PRL; 3. Zmiana na stanowisku prezesa Rady Ministrów PRL; 4. Odwołanie rządu po wyborach do Sejmu; 5. Forma prawna decyzji o zmianie rządu PRL; 6. Uwagi końcowe. 1 Wotum nieufności to instytucja kluczowa dla systemu parlamentarno-gabi­ netowego. Ten model ustrojowy występuje wówczas, gdy rząd ponosi odpowie­ dzialność polityczną przed parlamentem, a nie ponosi jej (co do zasady) przed głową państwa. Wotum nieufności przybiera różne formy - może dotyczyć całego ministerium lub tylko poszczególnych członków; może być równoznaczne z od­ wołaniem rządu albo wyrażać tylko żądanie jego dymisji (jak w Wielkiej Brytanii); może przybierać postać wyraźnej uchwały izby albo stanowić tzw. wotum dorozu­ miane; może też funkcjonować tzw. konstruktywne wotum nieufności. Zdarzało się, że interesująca nas instytucja ustrojowa opierała się na zwyczajach konstytu­ cyjnych, a nie na treści przepisów ustawy zasadniczej2. Czy w systemie ustrojowym PRL odnajdziemy przejawy takiego parlamentar­ nego wotum nieufności? W konstytucji z 1952 r. izba ustawodawcza została opi­ 1 Z. Messner, 19 września 1988 r.

In the association state, business associations are dominant. In the company state, the firm directly represents itself. In the party state, access to the political system is mediated by parties, with which businesses must identify themselves. In the soft state, the personal connections of businesspeople are the dominant channel of influence. The existing literature on business-government very rarely acknowledges that each mode forms part of the environment of business- government relations for the other modes.

Nie mają jednoznacznie pozytywnej lub negatywnej konotacji także w świadomości zbiorowej czy w społecznej pamięci, nawet jeśli znalazły się już w kano­ nie narodowej mj^logii. Żeby nie sięgać zbyt daleko w przeszłość, można podać przykłady powstania stycznio­ wego 1863 r. czy powstania warszawskiego 1944 r. Jedy­ nym, ale też niecałkowicie skutecznym lekarstwem, które łagodzi konflikty i cywilizuje spory, jest — jak się wydaje — upływ czasu. Wystarczy wspomnieć, że przez wiele lat od­ mienny stosunek do powstania styczniowego był znaczą­ cym wyróżnikiem dla co najmniej dwóch ważnych obo­ zów politycznych — legionowego i narodowego. Aczkol­ wiek i dziś w dyskusjach na temat tradycji romantycznej czy też, używając sformułowania Adama Bromkego, opo­ zycji „idealizm-realizm” w polskiej myśli politycznej, nie brakuje ani tych, którzy potępiają „powstańczy szantaż” (jak Lech Mażewski1), ani takich, którzy uważają, że bez powstań Polacy nie byliby Polakami2.
