The great Plato said the unexamined life is not worth living. Who does the examinations, country studies, fact-finding activities better than the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)? Poland became a member in 1996 and ever since it has relied on this organization for data and analysis. The twentieth anniversary of Poland's joining the OECD is a perfect opportunity to reflect on what needs to be improved. Nobody can deny the enormous effort that was put into the OECD accession or everyday duty of many bureaucrats, academics and politicians who sought to make good use of Polish membership in the OECD to adopt better policies for better quality of life in Poland. The purpose of my intervention is to make a case that to rest on our laurels, given the challenging circumstances that define the global context today, is the least sensible thing to do.
