The United Right and Rights of Polish Women
Zjednoczona Prawica a prawa polskich kobiet

Summary/Abstract: The election victories of the United Right in 2015 and 2019 are associated with limiting women’s rights. This applies mainly to reproduction, security in the home place, the labour market or politics. Changes in the situation of the Polish women under the rule of the conservative coalition are the subject of this article. Its aim is to present the process of implementing the right-wing vision of the role of women in society. The researchers asked the following questions: Do legal regulations sufficiently protect the safety of Polish women under the rule of United Right? What is the process of changes taking place in the labour market from the point of view of women? Is there a slight but systematic increase in the number of women in parliament and their promotion to other high political positions? In order to obtain answers to the above questions, an analysis of the texts of documents and magazines was used. The analysis showed a radical restriction of women’s rights.
