The following sections will be up and running shortly. Since the fall of communism in 1989 there have been seven governments in Poland. The current government, elected to power in 1997, was a right-wing coalition between AWS and the Freedom Union. The fragile union came to an end in May of 2000 when the Freedom Union withdrew over policy differences. Presidential elections are scheduled for the fall of 2000 and parliamentary elections follow in the fall of 2001.
