Kochanowicz, Kula, backwardness. Regarding the studies of Eastern European peripheries (Summary)The article offers an analysis of the main strands of Jacek Kochanowicz’s research into the backwardness of Eastern Europe. The author attempts to answer the question concerning the extent to which Kochanowicz’s ‘backwardness studies’ built on the research he had carried out earlier under the supervision of Witold Kula.Kochanowicz differed from Kula in his explanation of the economic backwardness of Eastern Europe. Kula, in explaining this phenomenon, stressed the fact that in the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries Eastern Europe reliedfor its resource bases on the capitalistic centre and that institutional changes occurring in the area in the eighteenth to twentieth centuries were of a hybrid nature. Kochanowicz, by contrast, argued that the backwardness of Eastern Europe originated in the economic (from the sixteenth century on) and cultural (from the nineteenth century) domination of the Polish nobility whose mentality did not favour the growth of entrepreneurial spirit. In addition to the domination of the nobility, the causes of Poland’s backwardness lay in the weakness of Polish towns and of Polish peasantry. However, Kochanowicz continued to draw on the methods used by Kula. Interested in sociology and anthropology, he developed an interdisciplinary approach to economic history, adopting a longue durée perspective and using broad comparisons.

The Economic History of Pre-partition Poland – an Abandoned Territory?(Summary)The economic history of the pre-industrial epoch flourished in Poland from the 1950s to the 1970s. On the basis of extensive archival research, and influenced by the Western Marxist approach as much as by the Annales school, it developed several interpretations of the relative backwardness of Polish lands in a broader European context. In the 1970s and later on, many economic historians turned to other fields, particularly social history. The reasons for this departure include, on the one hand, Marxist and the Annales paradigms, and, on the other hand, the Polish historians’ low familiarity with the most recent theoretical and methodological trends in economic history as practiced in the West. Nowadays, the economic dimension is present in research mostly insofar as it plays a supportive role in an analysis of social and political institutions, with particular importance attached to studies on the clientele system within the nobility. What is visibly lacking – in comparison with recent interests in economic history in the West – is research into long-term economic growth and its institutional determinants.

The article presents how the concept of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is reflected in the regulation recently adopted in the EU and what possible effects CBAM may cause. The authors begin with explaining the reasons for the introduction of CBAM. Next, they briefly describe what obligations arise from the mechanism for entities and EU Member States and compare this mechanism to the EU ETS. The challenges facing the mechanism and the possible effects of its implementation are then examined. In the final section, the authors assess the economic impact of the CBAM on the Polish economy, taking into account changes in the price levels, in the value of production, exports and imports, GDP and household consumption in the horizon of 2030. The projection was carried out using the Carbon Regulation Emission Assessment Model (CREAM), which is the static general equilibrium model developed in the Centre for Climate and Energy Analyses (CAKE) at the National Centre for Emission Management (KOBiZE).
