Summary/Abstract: Poland seems on the cusp of winning for itself the status of a leading EU Member State. ver he course of the sovereign-debt crisis, it has successfully held its own in an increasingly ntergovernmental EU. That now creates a temptation to ditch its traditional “hedging” pproach to the European Commission and Parliament and strike out more on its own. Yet, oland’s real success in this intergovernmental EU has been in securing the continued penness of EU rules and the integrity of its institutions. Since Poland is still at risk of being idelined by exclusive forms of intergovernmental cooperation, it needs to find ways to renew he protective influence of the bloc’s supranational institutions rather than to abandon them.
