Firstly, he delves into the functioning of academia across different historical periods, shedding light on the evolving beliefs, practices, and evaluation criteria of scholars. Secondly, he examines the legal frameworks governing science and academia, highlighting their significance in shaping the academic landscape.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA significant portion of this study is dedicated to analyzing the Polish academic culture, encompassing the efforts to align the existing standards of research and student education with those prevalent in leading Western countries.
