?Dear Tiago,
I'm affraid that there are no systematic overviews of this topic. Even works
published in Polish raise it rather accidentally. However, there are some
papers you may find useful:
Porwit, Krzysztof. 1998. "Looking Back at Economic Science in Poland, 1945 -
96,'' in Hans-Juergen Wagener (ed.) Economic Thought in Communist and
Post-Communist Europe. London: Routledge, pp. 80-157.
Kowalik , Tadeusz. 2002. "Economics--Poland", in Max Kaase et al. (eds.)

Economics, Political Science and Sociology.
