Abstract
The term “accountability” refers to a manner of assuming responsibility, in particular a relevant verification of particular actions and processes located in time and assigned to a concrete subject. Usually the following two types of accountability are identifi ed: inter-institutional (horizontal) accountability and electoral (vertical) accountability. Accountability applies primarily to the executive branch of government, but it is included in the much wider range of the accountability of the particular institutions of a political system. It constitutes an element of the quality of democracy. There have been oscillations in the level of accountability in the political system of the Polish Third Republic. It was lowered in the years 2007–2015 when symbiosis occurred among the establishment, the state bureaucracy, the business community, and public opinion polling institutions.
