Czy rząd polski, mimo nieuznania ustawowego Ślązaków za mniejszość etniczną, ma obowiązek dbania o rozwój i zachowanie języka śląskiego w świetle obowiązującego prawa międzynarodowego?
Does the Polish Government, despite the fact that the Silesians have not been recognised by law as an ethnic minority, have a duty of care towards the development and preservation of the Silesian language, in the light of current international law?

Summary/Abstract: In the author’s opinion, the Polish government has no obligation to take care of the development and preservation of the Silesian language within the scope of the provisions of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages. Other norms of international law regulating the problem of protection of the rights of national and ethnic minorities do not apply in the analysed case due to the fact that the Silesians have not been recognised by the legislator as an ethnic minority.
