Koncepcje systemu wyborczego do Sejmu na ziemiach Krolestwa Polskiego w latach 1917–1918 (Kamil Kacperski)

Journal Title: PRZEGLĄD SEJMOWY - Year 2018, Vol 149, Issue 6

Abstract

The reviewed book presents the origin and course of the systemic dispute, whose participants were almost all political groups, concentrated into three camps: active, passive and the pro-independence left in the period preceding the regaining of independence by Poland. The author points to law-making features of the discourse, which mobilized political and social centres to develop an electoral procedure at the Polish lands. The discourse took place in the extreme conditions of war and occupation, and refl ected the state of the legal culture with numerous exclusions from civil rights. The list of qualifi cations comprised: domicile, property, nationality, sex, social origin, education, religion and occupation. The temporary approach to the research problem, evidenced in the three chapter of the monograph, allowed to present the legal and political actions in their institutional and personal dimension. As regards the institutions, documents were analysed, produced by the Provisional Council of State in the Polish Kingdom, the Sejm-Constitutional Committee of the Provisional Council of State, the Regency Council and its government cabinets, as well as the Council of State and the Sejm Committee of the Council of State. As regards activity of individuals, the research is focused on the production of eminent thinkers, scientists, publicists, politicians, party leaders. Confronting different concepts of electoral laws led to laying down knowledge on specifi c elements of the process of restituting the independent Polish State in 1918.
