It will be argued in this article that the EU Recommendation on common principles for collective redress might have limited impact on the field of competition law due to: several uncertainties regarding the legal standing in class actions; difficulties in their funding; and the risk of forum shopping with cross-border actions. Neverthe-less, Belgium and Great Britain have recently introduced class actions into their national legal systems and addressed some of the difficulties which other Member States were experiencing already. It will also be suggested that the Portuguese model – the ‘Popular Action’ – and recent Portuguese practice may be considered an interesting example to follow in order to overcome some of the identified obsta-cles to private antitrust enforcement.

Artykuł porównuje regulacje sytuacji prawnej w sprawach przed wybranymi regionalnymi międzynarodowymi organami sądowymi lub quasi-sądowymi działającymi w Afryce i Ameryce Łacińskiej, z perspektywy sporów środowiskowych. Autorka skupia się na aktywnej sytuacji prawnej prywatnych jednostek w spornych sprawach wnoszonych przeciwko państwu. Artykuł systematyzuje reguły rządzące stanem prawnym w dwóch szerokich kategoriach: sporu subiektywnego (opartego na prawach) oraz obiektywnego konfliktu interesów. Następnie, podejście każdego z sądów zostaje przeanalizowane na podstawie jego reguł proceduralnych i orzecznictwa. Można wyróżnić kilka trendów, włącznie ze skłanianiem się sądów praw człowieka w stronę traktowania takich spraw jako obiektywnego konfliktu interesów, trendem udzielania organizacjom pozarządowym uprzywilejowanej pozycji wszczynania sporów środowiskowych, oraz wzmacnianiem podejścia opartego na prawach społeczności przez sądy w celu regionalnej integracji ekonomicznej, które mogą stać się istotne w przyszłości.

This article compares the rules governing the legal standing before selected regional international judicial and quasi-judicial bodies in Africa and Latin America from the perspective of environmental litigation. The focus is on active legal standing of private entities in contentious proceedings against states. The article sytematizes the rules governing the legal standing into two broad categories: subjective (rights based) litigation and objective interest litigation. Subsequently, the approach of each court will be analyzed on the basis of its procedural rules and jurisprudence. Several trends can be identified, including a tendency of human rights courts to move towards objective interest litigation, a trend to grant non-governmental organizations a privileged position to initiate environmental litigation, and the development of community rights based approach by courts for regional economic integration that could become relevant in the future.
