Privatising Capital: The Commodification of Poland's Welfare State

This book examines Poland's public sector and welfare state. These are historically rooted in economic and social structures and amount to a form of public capital. There is an ongoing attempt to financialise and commodify this public capital. This includes areas such as health, education and pensions. Social opinions and contemporary politics are analysed.
