Résumé anglais |
The article investigates the emergence and development of the policies and politics of
unemployment in Poland after 1989, where the latter constitutes a relatively new but
salient phenomenon. We can observe a process of peaceful institutionalisation of
unemployment, which became a status conferring limited social rights, without this
triggering significant protest or opposition. Two complementary explanations account for
this. First, trade unions have been instrumental in ensuring social peace. Secondly, labour
market and social policies have played a major role in containing the opposition of certain
groups. The design of labour market policies was thus largely driven by domestic politics
while external influences and europeanization in particular played a minor role before
