Abstract

The article analyses the transformation of the Polish anti-corruption legal model since the 1990s to nowadays. It considers the constitutional anti-corruption bases and emphasizes the anti-corruption vectors of the Constitution in Poland. The author pays attention to the evolution of the anti-corruption strategy of Poland and shows the role of anti-corruption state institutions including the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau, the Police, the Internal Security Agency, the Border Guard, the Military Gendarmerie, the Counterintelligence Service and the National Revenue Administration. The article pays considerable attention to legislative anti-corruption developments in the Polish criminal law and procedure. It analyses the role of public control in anti-corruption in Poland and highlights the efficiency of the Batory Foundation activity. The author concludes that a significant progress in counteracting corruption has been achieved since soviet period of the Polish People’s Republic to present time. Although such areas as infrastructure modernization and development, informatization of the public administration, military defense, health care, energy sector, natural environment protection, state property management, public procurement are still at risk of corruption.
