Summary/Abstract: The article characterises the legal and political status of the Polish diaspora in Southern Europe and the Balkans. The study aims to assess the impact of institutional instability, economic crises, and selective implementation of minority law on the diaspora’s position. Comparative and legal document analysis was applied. Findings reveal the marginalization of Polonia and the reactive nature of the Polish Republic’s policy. The conclusions emphasise the need for a coherent strategy and lasting institutional support.
