Let's Agree on Poland

OUP Oxford, 2025

At a time when constitutional democracy is under increasing strain, Let's Agree on Poland offers a bold exploration of how divided societies can break through ideological deadlock and reform their institutions. While rooted in the case of Poland, the book offers both academic insight and practical solutions for addressing democratic challenges worldwide. Born from an extraordinary cross-partisan initiative launched at the height of Poland's constitutional crisis, the book presents a comprehensive constitutional reform proposal by legal and political thinkers across the ideological spectrum, from progressives to staunch conservatives. Detailed political and constitutional analysis is complemented with sophisticated financial models that demonstrate the real-world budgetary impact of the proposed reforms, as well as public-management perspectives on improving the efficiency and decisiveness of the reformed state. In addition to offering rigorous political analysis, book revives storytelling as a tool for constitutional imagination. Through collaboration with award-winning fiction writers, Let's Agree on Poland presents five short stories that illustrate how its proposed new constitutional system would work in practice, shaping the everyday lives of ordinary people. Adapted from a 2023 Polish non-fiction bestseller, this international edition features a new introduction and conclusion that deliver an original diagnosis of today's global democratic crisis and the institutional mindset needed to overcome it. Short commentaries by leading American and European legal and political thinkers complement the other writings that comprise this unique volume.
