Summary/Abstract: This article contains an overview of good manners in Polish contract law. The overview leadsto the conclusion that following clauses – “rules of social coexistence” and “socio-economic purposeof law”, which are based on the legislation from the time of the Polish People’s Republic(PRL), need to be replaced by the clause of good manners. It is necessary for the full and thorough Europeanization of the Polish civil law. The two aforementioned clauses appear to be completelyforeign concepts and legal categories in the legal doctrine of EU member states which were not thesatellite states of the Soviet Union. These clauses have no equivalents in the classic European civillaw studies. The return to the “good manners” in the Polish contract law will undoubtedly moredeeply anchor the Polish institutions of the contract law in the legal system of EU.
