This article analyzes the process of regime change with the tools of political sociology of law. It examines the “ semi-free ” elections in Poland in June 1989. The author studies the codification process during the “ Round Table ” negotiations, which produces an ad hoc and ambiguous electoral rule. The various uses, partly unexpected, of the law by the main actors (the Communist Party, Soli- darity and the candidates) are reconstructed. They helped transform an election designed to save the communist regime in a tool for its collapse
