Introduction to Public Law and Human Rights - REVISION GUIDE

Author(s): Özgür Heval Çınar / Language(s): English

Public Law and Human Rights is a core module in the legal education of the United Kingdom (UK). Throughout the world it is known as common law. While common law consists of case-law and statutes, it has reached its present state by incorporating elements of international law, prerogative power and other legal and non-legal sources such as conventions and customs. This book closely examines the public law (constitution and administrative law) and human rights system of the UK (England and Wales in particular). The reason for the emergence of this book is that other publications do not explain such a complex issue in plain language, which makes it very difficult for those taking an interest, in particular A-level as well as LLB/LLM law students. This book does not repeat material that is available in many textbooks that are in print. Rather, it endeavours to present every topic in plain language and concludes every chapter with a fictitious, explanatory sample case. This book will also assist students to prepare for examinations. It comes with a test that summarizes all the subjects contained in the book, which is appropriate to the first stage SQE (Solicitors Qualifying Examination) examination.

Pozaustawowe zamówienia publiczne

Author(s): Ewaryst Kowalczyk / Language(s): Polish

Horyzont dociekań badawczych podejmowanych w obszarze zamówień publicznych tradycyjnie wyznaczany jest zakresem pojęcia „prawo zamówień publicznych”. W literaturze słusznie przyjmuje się przy tym, że jego „rdzeniem”jest sama ustawa Prawo zamówień publicznych (Pzp) oraz towarzyszące jej akty wykonawcze. Jednocześnie dostrzega się, że w szerszym ujęciu prawo zamówień publicznych obejmuje także przepisy innych ustaw, do których Pzp odsyła oraz akty prawne, które z kolei zobowiązują do stosowania Pzp. Wreszcie prawo zamówień publicznych, a także – obok wymienionych wyżej aktów prawa krajowego – europejskie regulacje dotyczące zamówień publicznych, w tym dyrektywy i rozporządzenia. Tak zarysowane granice prawa zamówień publicznych inspirują przede wszystkim do podejmowania problemów umiejscowionych niejako w jego obrębie. Należą do nich m. in. kwestie dotyczące ustawowych obowiązków związanych z przygotowaniem i prowadzeniem postępowania o udzielenie zamówienia, trybów udzielania zamówień, wymagań związanych z umowami, ustrojowego urządzenia oraz kompetencji organów właściwych w sprawach zamówień czy środków ochrony prawnej. Jednakże na równą uwagę zasługują także zagadnienia związane z zamówieniami publicznymi, które nie są objęte zakresem zastosowania Pzp.

Ewolucja pozycji prawnej ministra

Author(s): Kamil Kaczmarek / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The publication concerns the issue of the legal position of a minister, which is regulated primarily by the provisions of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland of 1997 and by statutes. The analysis shows the evolution of this legal position, which took place due to the existence of many fundamental laws in Poland, shaping the competences of ministers in a different way. In this respect, particular attention has been paid to selected provisions of the Constitution of the People’s Republic of Poland of 1952, as well as the Small Constitution of 1992, thus acts that directly preceded the binding Constitution of the Republic of Poland and had some impact on the shape of the current systemic solutions. The discussion of the scope of competences and duties of ministers was carried out within the framework of three spheres of the legal position of a minister, which can be distinguished on the grounds of the provisions of the currently binding constitution. These spheres are: the function of a member of the Council of Ministers, the function of a minister heading a department of government administration, and the function of a minister performing tasks assigned by the Prime Minister.

Restytucja strat wojennych przez krajową administrację publiczną

Author(s): Emilia Barbara Zakrzewska / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The article is an attempt to diagnose the problems related to the looted works of art and their restitution. The paper tries to examine the relations between different public administration bodies, which are responsible for the recovery of the Polish heritage. The main focus is put on the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage and legal frameworks it uses to succeed. Further and deepened study of the biggest and most important venture of the authorities – the electronic Database of Wartime Losses – allows for a better understanding of historical and systematic problems the state faces when trying to reclaim what once belonged to the Poles or was part of public collections. A comparison with other countries’ attempts to restore their cultural heritage gives a perspective of what else can be done. The lack of coordination and cooperation both between the governmental departments and public institutions with privately-owned enterprises calls for the administration’s immediate and substantive actions.

Transkrypcja zagranicznego aktu małżeństwa osób tej samej płci

Author(s): Filip Pańczyk / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The transcription of a certificate of same-sex marriage contracted abroad, even though it is not a new problem, still generates considerable controversy. Administrative courts, adopting views of the overwhelming majority of doctrine, consider transcription of such an act as inadmissible, giving as a reason its contradiction with fundamental principles of the Polish legal order. Therefore, within the framework of this article, an analysis of Article 18 of the Polish Constitution is presented, with particular emphasis on the positions of those representatives of science who do not see this article as an obstacle to institutionalizing same-sex partnerships. The institution of transcription itself, the public order clause and question of evidentiary force of foreign official documents were also characterized. A proper place was also devoted to the jurisprudence of administrative courts, presenting established line of judicature and a „precedent” judgment breaking out of it. Attention was also paid to the highly relevant European Court of Human Rights’ case law, implementation of which could make the problem addressed in this study, at least partially, outdated.

Nowe prawne formy działania administracji

Author(s): Eliza Chojecka / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

In the face of the growing complexity and variety of challenges facing the modern state, the need for adaptation and innovation in the legal framework of its operation is becoming an increasingly important issue. The purpose of the article is to present the views expressed in the doctrine relating to the so-called new legal forms of administrative action - i.e. those which - due to their specific features – cannot be classified as the forms traditionally distinguished. The paper opens with an attempt to explain the notion of „legal forms of administrative action” and seeks to indicate a catalogue of such forms. It is followed by an outline of views expressed in legal doctrine relating to the concept and catalogue of new legal forms of administrative action. The following parts are devoted to the characteristics of selected new legal forms of administrative action: a public-law contract, an act of planning, an act of interpretation and an administrative promise.

Odmowa dostępu do informacji publicznej w kontekście społecznej kontroli działalności służb specjalnych

Author(s): Zuzanna Ganczewska / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

Pursuant to the Access to Public Information Act of September 6, 2001, denying access to public information is possible, among other cases, if the information covered by the request constitutes classified information. Although undoubtedly some information, for reasons of state security and other legitimate interests, should be subject to a certain degree of protection, this may lead to a reduction in the society’s ability to control the – often controversial and emotionally charged in the public debate – activities of the secret services. The doctrine and non-governmental organizations attempt to answer the question of how to simultaneously ensure the safety of legally protected interests and an adequate level of transparency in the activities of secret services. This paper reviews the examples of answers to this question in relation to balancing these values in the framework of access to public information and against the background of the current state of the law and positions appearing in the case law of the Supreme Administrative Court.

Wzrost kompetencji jednostek samorządu terytorialnego w obszarze przeciwdziałania alkoholizmowi. Wybrane zagadnienia

Author(s): Karolina Wierzbicka / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The purpose of the article is to present the role of local government units in the context of health-oriented attitudes of their residents on the example of alcohol policy. Alcohol consumption by Poles continues to rise and remains above the European average. The amendment to the Act on Upbringing in Sobriety and Counteracting Alcoholism in 2018 introduced a number of additional powers for local governments that enable effective shaping of local alcohol policy. The largest beneficiaries are councils, which may impose restrictions on access to alcohol. The novelty will now be available to local governments through the reports of the Staszic Institute from 2019 and the report of the Supreme Audit Office. These documents show difficulties that actually hinder the effective implementation of municipal prevention programs.

Porównanie wybranych elementów systemu ochrony zabytków w Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej i Republice Korei

Author(s): Julia Szcześniak / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

If there are any universal values that unite nations regardless of the latitude, then one of them is the protection of their monuments and national heritage. Hence, it should come as no surprise that legal regulations concerning these areas have appeared not only in Poland, but also in other parts of the world. One of the regions with institutional concepts similar to the Polish ones is South Korea. Korean system, although similar in several respects, is often assessed more positively than the Polish one. The aim of this article is to describe the similarities and differences between the Polish and the South Korean systems of monument protection and to indicate the solutions adopted in the Republic of Korea, which could potentially constitute a model to improve the domestic regulations in this area.

Administracja w świecie hegemonii globalnych korporacji

Author(s): Przemysław Iżycki / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The publication aims to analyse the role of public administration as guarantor of protection of individual rights and freedoms in relations with global corporations. In the era of digitalization of social life, a significant part of the functioning of individuals has moved to the online world, in respect of which the state still has the duty to care for individual rights, such as freedom of speech. Nevertheless, companies providing online services have a real advantage over the administration, which is connected to the global nature of their services and often comparable to the personal and property resources of the administration. In this state of affairs, the effectiveness of the existing perception of the administration as the supervisor of digital entities should be questioned. In the author’s view, the effectiveness of public administration in the world of hegemony of global corporations requires partial globalization of both the administration and the administrative law, as well as the use of a wider range of legal forms of action, in particular, of a consensual nature.

Prawo administracyjne a regulacja rozszerzonej rzeczywistości

Author(s): Julia Gołąb / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

Augmented Reality it is a technology which allows to put computer-generated items on real objects. The view received is “augmented” by new components, displayed on device screen or directly on particular object, depending on concrete equipment. Potential for AR application extends significantly beyond entertainment sector, and may as well revolutionize people’s everyday life. First cases of augmented reality implementation revealed a wide range of new legal problems, which are attached to it. Some of them embrace potential breaches of public interest, including public security and spatial order. A possibility of using the administrative law as a remedy for those problems is debatable at the present stage of technological development. Apart from that, establishing new legal standards may be already suggested to a limited extent.

Author(s): Anna Lanina / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

The article analyses the legality of the use of unmanned aerial vehicle by public administration bodies in order to monitor air quality and control pollution resulting from the incineration of substances that are hazardous to the environment and human health.

Furthermore, the subject of analysis of the article is to bring the issues related to modern methods of equipment for drones, manner of sampling and testing the chemical compositions of polluted air and to provide examples of the use of unmanned aerial vehicles.

Rowery przyszłości. Studium przypadku projektowania przepisów na przykładzie regulacji o urządzeniach transportu osobistego

Author(s): Igor Korczak-Kubalski / Language(s): Polish Publication Year: 0

Inventing new personal conveyors (such as e-scooters, electric unicycles, hoverboards) was noticed relatively late by the Polish legislature. What is even more intriguing, is the fact that drafting the provisions regarding personal transportation devices (PTD) took almost five years. That time was also the period in which the status of PTD and their users liability was uncertain. The article presents the whole legislative procedure concerning personal transportation devices and tries to make conclusions regarding that matter.
