Abstract

The principal objective of this review is to determine whether the conducted studies provide a diagnosis of the Poles’ economic awareness and of economic education actions undertaken in Poland. To make this evaluation we first analysed the issues which the studies are focused on and synthetically presented their key results. We further analysed which groups participate in those studies and what institutions commission such research. The summary, in addition to conclusions resulting from the presented considerations, offered initial recommendations which, if implemented, could contribute to better verification of the Poles’ economic awareness and knowledge in empirical studies. The authors first reviewed the literature, which resulted in defining conceptual boundaries of terms critical to the topic of this paper. The core research material was constituted by selected reports from studies of economic awareness and education of Poles and an analysis of those studies.
