Evaluation of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland in the Constitutional Survey – Merits of the Current Basic Law

Abstrakt

This text is an extended and modified version of the paper presented by the author during a scientific conference held on 16 June 2018 at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow. It presents the merits of the current Constitutional regulations as pointed out by respondents to the Constitutional Survey conducted in 2017 amongst representatives of the science of constitutional law in Poland. The analysis of the results of this Constitutional Survey leads to the conclusion that the Constitution is generally positively evaluated by those who have been researching it for a number of years. It was pointed out that its merits outweigh flaws and that it is not so much the content or axiology of the Constitution, but rather the practice of its application, that can be assessed in a negative way. The Constitution is being used instrumentally at the moment and amended through ordinary laws. An analysis of the answers to the questions in the open part of the Constitutional Survey shows that constitutional law experts see a need to strengthen the guarantees of rigidity and stability of the Constitution and to increase the effectiveness of measures for protection of constitutional rights and freedoms. Representatives of the Polish science of constitutional law came to an almost unanimous conclusion that at present we are not having the so-called constitutional moment and inasmuch it is necessary to discuss the need to amend the Constitution and to propose different alternative solutions, yet there are no conditions for its amendment.
