Summary/Abstract: The article describes the liberal concepts presented in the „Political Review” against the background of political changes at the turn of the 80s and 90s. It discusses how the magazine patronized the liberal revolution in Poland, promoted and developed the concepts of ordo liberalism, tried to create its own catalogue of liberal values. The text attempts to answer the question as to how much the „Review” was a party organ, and how much it was an independent magazine and a place of liberal debate. The text also describes the process of building a political environment by Gdansk liberals, starting from the integration of all political and economic initiatives, the organization of the Liberal Congress, and ending with the creation of the Liberal Democratic Congress, and then the Freedom Union.
