Summary/Abstract: The topic of the present article concerns the evolution of criminal liability portrayed by using the example of the relationship between the concepts of a doctor and an official, which was characteristic of the historical and system of state changes occurring in the state. Numerous legal institutions, which are currently in force in the Penal Code, were shaped between 1918 and 1939. After 1945 and the establishment of the Polish People's Republic, the role of the state increased, which was expressed in the treatment of doctors as officials and state functionaries, which was, in turn, related to the subjugation of every area of life to state regulation. Despite this, judicial decisions of the courts attempted to reduce criminal liability which pertained to a disproportionately large circle of subjects. This jurisprudential direction was the basis for the current solutions, which came into force in the Penal Code of 1997.
