SUMMARYIn this article Professor Wagner claims the Polish Constitution of 1791 as the second formal written constitution in history, after the Constitution of the United States. The text of the Polish Constitution is analysed to reveal the basic principles on which the Constitution was based. This commentary in turn is set in the context of Poland's historic traditions, which arc described as embodying from an early date an overriding concern with the preservation of personal liberties from executive encroachment through the rule of law. |

The ‘Commission of National Education’, established in 1773, was the first ministry of education in the world. In order to cultivate its tradition, the present Polish ministry bears the same name, replacing the pre-war ministry of ‘Public Instruction and Religious Denominations’. |

As stated by Christopher Kasparek: ‘the Commission distanced the educational systems of Western Europe—it abolished the Church's monopoly of education, introduced modern curricula (taught in the native language), methods and organization, strove to decrease educational differences among the estates, and sought to form good citizens’.
