Poland Party of Christian Democrats
Founded in December 1990, the small Party of Christian
Democrats (Partia Chrzescijanskich Demokratów--PChD) used
the
political experience of its membership to gain success
disproportionate to its size. Its most prominent member,
Pawe
Laczkowski, became deputy prime minister for political
affairs in
the Suchocka government. On social issues, the PChD
supported a
more pragmatic, centrist brand of Christian democracy than
that
advocated by the larger ZChN. On economic issues, the PChD
supported a rapid approach to economic transformation and
privatization.
