Ministerial Concepts (II) AB - The article refers to the development of cultural policies in Poland after the collapse of Communism in 1989. The text offers a critical approach to the succeeding ministerial concepts of cultural changes planned for the transition period. The author explores various documents and the governmental papers published by the Polish Ministry of Culture as well as some national programmes, actions and declarations. The article presents a broad overview of the nature of changes in Polish culture since 1989 until 2014. It was a specially troublesome time. The Polish artists, activists and operators moved from a centrally organised political and cultural system to a decentralised liberal  democratic country, in which the freedom of expression was guaranteed and a new management system was introduced and adopted.  VL - 2016 IS - Volume 17, Issue 2 PY - 2016 SN - 1896-8201 C1 - 2084-3976 SP - 91 EP - 105 DO - 10.4467/20843976ZK.16.007.4481 UR - https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/zarzadzanie-w-kulturze/article/kierunki-rozwoju-polityki-kulturalnej-w-polsce-po-1989-roku-koncepcje-ministerialne-ii KW - Polish cultural policy KW - Polish Ministry of Culture KW - Polish political system transformation in culture
