Abstract
In this article we attend to the topic of development of local government in Poland after 1989. The evolution of Polish self-government is quite complicated and lenghty.
That is why we must study this process with regard to all political, social, economic etc. circumstantes which influence it. Firstly we follow up this process, than we look at the actual position of local government in the Polish political system and finally we analyse the reform of sel-government as a political problem, according to the professional and political experiences of reformers of Polish local government.
