Summary/Abstract: The article attempts to analize the causes and circumstances which led Wojciech Jaruzelski to make a decision to create the office of the President of People's Republic of Poland. Such decision-making process took place in the second half of 1980's. It was linked not only with gen. Jaruzelski (the main decision-maker in the late communist Poland) personally but also with his close subordinates and part of political establishment. The analysis deals with both inner determinants and the international ones. Some concepts of creating the presidential office have been described. The methodolical approach consists of historical analysis, decision-making theories and migration studies.
