This report discusses Poland’s
experience along five dimensions. These five dimensions - a
pentagon of policies and institutions are governing,
sustaining, connecting, growing, and including. The main
lessons from Poland and the key insights for its future,
based on this pentagon, are presented in the lessons and
insights summarized in this report. Poland’s experience
underlines the importance of a shared vision to sustain
continuing reforms. Poland’s rapid economic ascent created
new challenges: the creative destruction on which the growth
process was based, successfully, caused massive social
change. The report addresses two sets of questions. First,
what are the lessons from Poland’s remarkable transition to
high income?; what policies were behind Poland’s economic
achievements?; why was Poland able to achieve high-income
per capita so fast, while many other countries remained in
the upper-middle-income range for decades - trapped
middle-income countries (MICs)?; what policies were similar
to those pursued by other new high income countries (HICs)
and what were specific to Poland?, and second, what are the
insights for Poland going forward? Given international
experience and Poland’s characteristics, what policies can
it adopt to continue its ascent and reach the much higher
incomes of countries that have been high income for a
considerable period - the established HICs? |
