Summary/Abstract: This paper attempts to present a review of higher education reform processes in Poland in 1990–2015 and 2016–2018 (when a draft of the so-called Act 2.0 was prepared) and an assessment of the domestic “art of reforms”. As the author has adopted the perspective of the public policy science, she focuses on issues of public policy making, i.e. the development and strategic programming policy, drafting legislation, and accompanying public consultations. Furthermore, the paper discusses three past and one current attempt to reform higher education in the context of the political economy of reforms that are globally perceived as a benchmark. The long, nearly 30‑year period covered by the paper’s analyses allowed the author to draw conclusions with regard to the evolution of higher education policy, highlighting the problem of its quality (standards) as a public policy.
