Podmioty administracji rządowej w zakresie polityki migracyjnej współczesnej Polski
Government Administration Entities in the Field of Migration Policy of Contemporary Polish

Summary/Abstract: The subject of the presented research are government administration bodies involved in the preparation and implementation of contemporary migration policy in Poland. The aim of the article is to determine them and determine competences in the field of migration policy. In achieving this task, the institutional-legal method as well as the decision-making and comparative method was mainly used. A characteristic feature of migration policy in Poland is that although various entities take part in it, the key role is played by government administration. However, there is no single institution in the Polish government administration that would deal with all the issues related to migration policy. There are many entities that carry out activities related to various aspects of this policy – mainly security, border protection, labor market, Polish diaspora policy. Some have similar tasks, with the consequence that their actions are not always well coordinated with each other. This multiplicity of government institutions involved in migration policy in Poland may also create competition between them and different approaches to migration issues. The creation of some of these entities was caused by the emergence of new, important events in this matter (the migration crisis and the related relocation, the massive influx of war refugees from Ukraine). So far, the main governmental entity of this policy is the Ministry of the Interior and Administration, which perceives immigration through the prism of state security.
