摘要：The aim of this article is to trace the historical trade-offs between the State and local communities in shaping alcohol policies in Poland against the changes in more general political and economic backdrop. The article reviews relevant legislation and literature in the field since the 1920s and then discusses current legislation and policy documents, which apparently empower local alcohol action. It is argued that a shift from the State alcohol policies towards community-based initiatives is reinforced by the growing position of the market at the expense of the State powers. Public health approaches of proven efficacy are beyond the influence of local communities. They have no impact whatsoever on taxation. Availability control is rarely applied either as local preventive funds grow in proportion to the number of alcohol outlets. In this context, local alcohol policies tend to focus on school education on the one hand and on individual interventions in the field of family violence and severe addiction, on the other.
