Summary/Abstract: The article is a comparative analysis of Piłduski’s camp and “Prawo i Sprawiedliwość”. Similarities between the party and marshal’s followers are visible both in the time of rule of the party in years 2005–2007 and later, especially after the catastrophe in Smoleńsk in April 2010. It is hard to say explicitly whether existence of Piłsudski’s camp and referring to it is actually well-founded. It is not easy to find analogies in case when there are huge differences in functionality of the Second Polish Republic and contemporary Poland. However, crucial role of the leader in the party, new foreign policy concept and geopolitical bases of country’s functionality and unfulfilled vision of Fourth Polish Republic are the most visible references to the time of Piłsudski’s camp.
