...worse may be yet to come. To restructure the country's antiquated industry, Poland must abandon many of the concepts that have governed the economy for 40 years. Inefficient mines, mills and factories will have to be closed. Unemployment will have to be tolerated. So will growing differentials in wages and living standards.
