Poland-United States bilateral relations: Political and economic aspects
Streszczenie
The aim of this chapter is to explore the Poland-U.S. bilateral relations with regard to political and economic aspects, with a focus on the 2009–2020 period. The chapter comprises two main parts. The first one concerns political aspects (political leadership, national security, and immigration policy) and the second one concerns economic aspects (free trade agreements, investments, and bilateral trade). The chapter combines qualitative and quantitative approaches. The main research methods employed are literature review (including government websites) and comparative analysis. While this study is conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, the focus is primarily on the ongoing political and economic issues beyond the overbearing impact of the current pandemic-related collapse.
