First off, it always annoys me when ppl compare communism, an economic structure, to democracy, a social system. What you mean is when Poland transformed it's economic system from communist to capitalist.
The tasks the first noncommunist government faced were immense. In 1990 the government adopted a “shock therapy†program of economic reform, named the Balcerowicz Plan after its author, Finance Minister Leszek Balcerowicz. It was meant to arrest Poland’s financial and structural crisis and rapidly convert the communist economic model into a free-market system (capitalist).
