U ovom članku analiziraćemo nedavna dešavanja i aktuelne trendove u oblasti arbitraže u Poljskoj. Prvo ćemo dati kratak pregled pravnog okvira za arbitražu u Poljskoj, a zatim i pregled prakse poljskih državnih sudova u “post-arbitražnim” predmetima. Nakon toga ćemo posvetiti pažnju najrelevantnijim poljskim arbitražnim institucijama. Na kraju ćemo razmotriti položaj arbitraže na osnovu sporazuma. U svakom od delova biće reči i o izazovima i perspektivama sa kojima se suočava arbitraža u Poljskoj.
