Abstract

In the article, we will try to explain the main reasons why Poland did not introduce the euro. They belong mainly to the sphere of political economy, although the arguments invoked are of an economic nature. In the article, we will also verify the veracity of these arguments, showing that some of them are based on prejudice rather than on in-depth analysis.
