The article deals with the phenomenon of the so called 'grey', 'shadow' or 'twilight' economy, which has been assessed here as a function of a given mix of economic policies. This key concept is first defined, then analyzed through the prism of its driving/growth factors. The analysis contains quantitative data illustrating the scale of such factors in Poland (alongside international comparisons). Having catalogued the principal reasons for the prevalence of 'shadow economics', the article endeavors to demonstrate the ramifications of economic activity being undertaken in the 'twilight zone'. Such ramifications are likely to be of a positive and negative nature, however, the latter tend to be - by far - more striking. The phenomenon has been viewed against a backdrop of the Polish economic framework, notably symptoms of over-regulation vis-a-vis the general business environment, with particular references to over-fiscals. The analysis formulates policy orientated conclusions relating to specific areas where reform need be initiated/advanced as well as directions for further research findings in respect of the 'shadow economy'.

There are controversies regarding existing estimates of the size of shadow economy in Poland. Therefore this paper focuses on the measurement of shadow economy in Poland over the period 1995-2007. On the basis of monetary methods, an econometric model for currency demand is built. Using estimation results, the size of shadow economy is assessed. According to the estimates shadow economy declined in the period 1995-2007 starting from 40% of GDP in 1995 and reaching about 10% of GDP in 2007. The paper also analyses relations between shadow economy, state budget and tax system. A Vector Autoregressive model is estimated and Impulse Reaction Functions are drown, showing that an increase in indirect tax burden enlarges shadow economy. A contrary effect arises due to an increase in: a) direct tax burden; b) budget balance.

This paper explores whether Catholic organisations, understood as moral communities, may act as intermediary institutions of control between markets and the post-socialist Polish state in constraining shadow economy activities of religionists who professionally run small and medium-sized companies. The interview data show that religious control efficiency is determined by the integrative potential of the specific religious organisation with which the analysed entrepreneurs were associated. This study also shows that the intertwining of an otherworldly orientation and dense social capital implies numerous ambiguities, which may produce destabilising effects for companies’ organizational efficiency.

This study explores the influence of financial development on the shadow economy, alongside other possible determinants, for the CESEE region. To this objective, we used a panel dataset of annual figures for eleven CESEE countries from 2003 to 2019. To estimate the long-run coefficients, panel FMOLS and DOLS were employed. Our findings suggest that an increase in financial development and tax burden leads to the enlargement of the shadow economy. While improvements in institutional quality, trade openness, and economic freedom reduce the magnitude of the shadow economy. The study’s results offer various policy recommendations that can be used to combat the shadow economy in CESEE countries. Tax policy and institutional reforms are encouraged to pro-mote greater trust within institutions, enabling the shift of economic activities from the shadow to the formal economy.

The theoretical and empirical aspects of the research into Slovakia's illegal economy were based on a secondary analysis and two pieces of representative research. The main outcomes of the research inform us that the problems within the current Slovak economic system occur as a result of the processes of corruption, and that the shadow economy is one of the main barriers to the socio-economic development of Slovakia. To solve these problems it is necessary to implement more effective economic legislation that includes social measures and ethical principles.
