The book “Umówmy się na Polskę” – supported by the Economic Freedom Foundation and featuring a chapter co-authored by EFF’s President Marek Tatała – has now been published in English as “Let’s Agree on Poland.” This marks an important step in internationalizing the debate about a new social contract for Poland and ways to reduce polarization.
The new edition, released by the prestigious Oxford University Press, brings the Polish discussion to a global audience – from academia to think tanks and the media. The project demonstrates that political conflict can be transformed into a constructive conversation about the rules of the state: how to build institutions that accommodate diverse views while strengthening responsibility and cooperation.
The publication is an initiative of the Social Contract Incubator (IUS) and brings together 28 experts representing a broad spectrum of opinions – from the left to the conservative right. The authors describe their “dream provinces” and proposed systemic solutions, and then, in cooperation with well-known writers, turn these visions into fictionalized narratives showing how they might work in practice.
EFF President Marek Tatała, together with Marcin Zieliński and Leszek Stypułkowski, co-authored a chapter about the “liberal dream province,” emphasizing, among other things, a simpler and more transparent tax system, the reduction of inefficient levies, and the professionalization of public asset management.
Alongside the release of the English edition, the international phase of #Let’sAgree is being launched – a series of 40–50 events abroad with the participation of the book’s authors and the IUS team. The aim is to show that polarization is not solely a Polish issue, and that practical ideas for a new social contract can inspire debate beyond Poland – and, strengthened by that exchange, return home.
Current information about upcoming events will be published on the project’s website and social media channels. Follow the updates at letsagreeonpoland.org.
