The purpose of this article is to analyse the methodological aspects related to the study of ideological changes in political parties. The article compares the quantitative analysis of election programs and the Expert Survey, evaluates their strengths and weaknesses, and analyses their application possibilities. The hypothesis adopted in this article is as follows: quantitative analysis of election programs is burdened with smaller methodological weaknesses than Expert Survey and thus is a more reliable tool for measuring ideological changes in the environment of political parties.

Celem artykułu jest analiza aspektów metodologicznych związanych z badaniem zmian ideologicznych w partiach politycznych. W pracy porównano analizę ilościową programów wyborczych i ankiety eksperckiej, oceniono ich mocne i słabe strony oraz przeanalizowano możliwości ich zastosowania. Hipoteza przyjęta w artykule jest następująca: analiza ilościowa programów wyborczych jest obciążona mniejszymi słabościami metodologicznymi niż ankieta ekspercka, a zatem jest bardziej niezawodnym narzędziem do pomiaru zmian ideologicznych w środowisku partii politycznych.
