Summary/Abstract: Historiography of the Polish Transformation? A Draft to a Summary There have been several canonical studies on the historiography of the political history of the systemic transformation in Poland still constitute a point of reference for researchers today. At the same time, however, the dynamic growth of the source base and the increasing popularity of post-structuralist scientific trends resulted in the fact that the research perspective characteristic of this canon is aging rapidly. The analysis and comments formulated in this text are an attempt at balancing the strengths and weaknesses of the historiography of the political history of the systemic transformation to date and an attempt to indicate how it potentially could develop further.
