Abstract
Poland's communist successor party has seen its opinion poll ratings increase in recent months. This upturn in support came after the revival of debates about the country's communist past prompted by government legislation affecting the interests of its core electorate. But as Aleks Szczerbiak writes, the party's leadership has failed to develop any new ideas or initiatives that can attract broader support beyond this declining group of former communist regime beneficiaries and functionaries. Without a political game-changer, the left will remain a marginal actor in Polish politics.
