TY - JOUR TI - Polska polityka migracyjna i jej paradoksy AU - Adamczyk, Anita TI - Polska polityka migracyjna i jej paradoksy AB - The aim of this article is to analyse the Polish migration policy. However, it is not about the content of the policy but about the gaps, paradoxes and stages of its creation. The thesis of the article is that the Polish migration policy created “from above” is full of paradoxes, which makes it internally incoherent. On the one hand, the economic logic of the market dictates that the policy should be open to foreigners, while the logic of the policy tends to be closed. In the phases of the migration policy-making cycle proposed in the article we cannot go beyond the second phase. “Policy on paper” is our domain. As it is constantly changing, we cannot move to the implementation and evaluation phase. This text is based on methods characteristic for political science and administration (institutional, systemic, decision-making) and legal science (legal-dogmatic).
