1980 - Solidarity, a free trade union was formed and soon about a third of the working population joined. They demanded more freedom, though the movement started as an economical one. 
1981 - in December the govt imposed martial law to curb the growing resistance movement and put an end to strikes and protests. 
1981-89 There was a continuous "reform" and a continuous economic crisis (inefficient economy) 
89 - the govt met opposition at so called Round Table meetings. Refoms included partially free elections and a PM from the opposition.(it was BEFORE the breakup of USSR and the fall of Berlin Wall) 
90-91 fully free elections, deep economic reforms and a total shift in foreign policy- stronger ties with Europe and US. 
That's about it...Most political parties which appeared then are gone now, the political scene is rather unclear but there is no doubt the country is democratic.
