  • Summary

    This chapter examines how the electoral victories of the populist Law and Justice Party in Poland were followed by legal changes dismantling institutional checks on government and eroding a number of individual civil and political rights, including freedom of speech and assembly. This case study tends to show that there is a dynamic built into illiberal populism that eventually renders it antithetical to democratic rules of the game.
