Parliamentary Opposition in Conditions of a Single-party Majority Government – A Few Remarks on the Basis of Polish Political Experience
Abstract
The fundamental research problem has been outlined around the question of a parliamentary opposition's effectiveness when faced with a homogeneous parliamentary and senatorial majority. The underlying research hypothesis assumes that the effectiveness of the actions of the parliamentary opposition in such conditions depends on the strategies adopted by both sides of the political dispute. These strategies in turn are built around the dominant perception of the political opponent.
