The paper is an attempt at theoretical and empirical research into a peculiar phenomenon in politics, namely the collapse of a political actor. The paper presents fragments of both quantitative and qualitative sociological research conducted in 2007 as part of my PhD dissertation “The League of Polish Families as a social actor.” The studies address the fundamental question: what were the causes of the collapse of the national-patriotic party, the League of Polish Families in 2007? Undoubtedly, its fall was influenced not only by the mistakes made within party structures, but also by the lack of intellectual support making the League of Polish Families’ program competitive in relation to other actors of Polish political scene.

Niniejszy artykuł jest próbą rozważań teoretycznych i empirycznych nad osobliwym zjawiskiem w polityce, a mianowicie upadkiem aktora politycznego. W związku z tym zostały ukazane fragmenty badań socjologicznych przeprowadzonych w 2007 roku, zarówno ilościowych i jakościowych z pracy doktorskiej pt. Liga Polskich Rodzin jako aktor społeczny (por. Płoski, 2013). Przedstawione badania odpowiadają na zasadnicze pytanie: jakie były przyczyny upadku partii narodowo-patriotycznej Liga Polskich Rodzin w 2007 roku? Niewątpliwie na jej upadek miały wpływ nie tylko błędy w funkcjonowaniu struktur partyjnych, ale także brak zaplecza intelektualnego, które spowodowałoby, iż program Ligi Polskich Rodzin byłby konkurencyjny w odniesieniu do innych aktorów polskiej sceny politycznej.

The article is an example of a discourse analysis dedicated to the decreasing relevance of the left-wing politics in Poland. In the course of the article author, first, reconstructs explanatory factors behind the phenomenon of the „disappearing left in Poland” that has been proposed by several authors since the 90s. In the second step, author applies this framework to the field of parliamentary politics, political discourses as well as to wider political context (i.e. media). The explanatory factors has been classified into five groups: adaptation (adjusting the left to the neoliberal order), denial (unsuccessful defense of leftist values and tradition), misrepresentation (consent of the political elites of the left to changing political affiliation of the trade unions that folated towards the conservative right), capture (exploitation of the crucial elements of the doctrine like „welfare state” by the national- Catholic milieus), incoherence (different ideological priorities of the „young” and „old” activists of the Left) and eventually liked with the „vanishing voter” situation in Poland.

A detailed analysis was done regarding the course of election campaign, paying attention to the elements of negative campaigning as well as the course of the elections themselves. The final reflections were dedicated to the election results and their influence (consequences) on the Polish party system.

The assessment of the Polish Third Republic was undoubtedly an important plane of polarisation of the contemporary Polish political scene. After the post-communist division, in which a key role was played by the assessment of the PPR, there was a post-Solidarity division, and the dispute axis was found in the assessment of the regime and economic transformation and the state of the nation under the rule of the Democratic Left Alliance. Lack of decommunisation and only partial inspection was for many right-sided groups an evidence of the superficiality of the system transformation and an explanation of many of its imperfections. The political polarisation was further exacerbated after the Smoleńsk catastrophe of 10 April 2010. Next to the strongly emotional questions of the causes of the event, there was an increase of the number of discussions on the functioning and state of the country. The diagnosis of the political, economic and social reality of the Polish Third Republic became one of the main programme factors of the political parties before the 2005 elections. The Law and Justice party had come up with one of the most critical assessments of the Polish Third Republic. The political programme based on negating the large part of the achievements of the Polish Third Republic was the main reason of their victory in the elections. The opinion of the Polish Third Republic also divided a large part of the society. Without a critical judgement of the reality of the 2005 there would be no victory of the Law and Justice and Civic Platform – the parties that declare breaking up with the pathologies of the Polish country.
