Reforms of state institutions in Poland: a conflict aspect

The paper deals with the political process in Poland. There have been major changes in both domestic and foreign policy of the country after the 2015 election resulting in the consolidation of power and political institutions by the representatives of the Law and Justice party. This situation can be regarded as a crisis which is confirmed by the unified theory of conflict analysis by V.A. Svetlov. The authors designed two digraphs reflecting the relationship of Polish authorities, opposition groups with the external actors after coming to power and conducting political reforms by the Law and Justice party. These digraphs illustrate the difference in the conflict from the system and ordinary perspective. Further development and resolution of system conflict are antagonistic; however, the system becomes sustainable, retains and enhances its integrity and multiple variations of its development.
