The State-Owned Enterprise as the Basic Organizational and Legal Form of Conducting Economic Activity in the People's Republic of Poland

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the state’s influence exerted over its economy in a totalitarian or authoritarian political system. The main point of interest is the scope of direct involvement of the state in the commercial activity process as well as the organizational forms of such activity chosen by the state. The abovementioned problem is examined using an example of People’s Poland– the authoritarian (and for a short period also totalitarian) form of Polish statehood in existence between 1944 and 1989. The main type of organisational form of state’s commercial activity examined in this paper is the form of state’s enterprise. It’s origin, developement and usage in the period of Polish authoritarian and totalitarian regimes is the primary focus of this paper.
