The article provides an analysis of the constitutional position of presidents of committees specifi ed in statutes. In accordance with Article 147, para. 4 of the Constitution such presidents may be appointed to membership in the Council of Ministers. But so far this regulation attracted little interest from scholars. The analysis covers both constitutional solutions and the practice of the period of Polish People’s Republic, when for the fi rst time in the history of Polish constitutionalism presidents of committees were accepted as members of the government, as well as legal regulations and practice of the Third Republic of Poland. In the author’s view, in the application of the above-mentioned Article more negative than positive experiences occurred. Moreover, due to the complexity of normative regulation relating to the said offi ce — combining the elements of a collective (committee) with a one-person management (president of a committee) — interpretative problems may arise. The author claims that the current trend to not apply Article. 147, para. 4 of the Constitution will be continued in the political practice.

The road to statutory regulation of legal personality of the Catholic Church in Poland "of the people" was extremely tortuous and had its turbulent history. In my analysis, I present how it came to pass the so-called "May's laws" and type this process in the whole relation between state – church, in the decade of eighties of the twentieth century. As I prove in my analysis, the way of conducting the work on the statutory regulation of the legal personality of the Catholic Church depended directly on the condition of the mutual relations and especially of the current, in a given period of time, concept of the religious policy of authorities, which in the last decade of the existance of the PRL had variable and dual character.

The paper is interested in how the repositioning of organized labour in Europe in the last 20 years has affected its capacity to answer the current fiscal crisis of the state. While there is reason to expect a growing discontent among unions' core constituencies with the unequal way that the costs of the crisis are being distributed, unions don't seem to be able to organize this discontent, and turn it into a source of countervailing power against 'markets' and the state. In order to understand this outcome, the paper makes three arguments. First, it shows that European integration since the 1980s has at its core been a neoliberal project which has aimed at restoring capitalist power and institutionalizing permanent austerity. It then argues that trade unions have become integrated into this project in a paradoxical way: while their institutional representation has been enhanced, they have simultaneously experienced a significant loss of autonomy and capacity to achieve substantial gains for their constituencies. As a result, trade unions approach the current fiscal crisis of the state from a peculiar state-dependent position, which limits their capacity to organize the growing discontent in a sustainable way.

The Roman Catholic Church was main enemy of communist government in Polish People Republic. Wise leadership of cardinal Stefan Wyszyński prevented this institution from destruction or lost independence. All of his activity had one main purpose – give protection from the plans of communist dignities. So I try to show that cardinal Wyszyński was probably the most realistic person in the history of the Polish People Republic. His attitude was main reason that polish Catholic Church didn’t lost their independence from communist system.

This article is an attempt to present a generally understood opinion of the Serbs and their various groups, both in Serbia itself and scattered all over the world, about the unilateral Albanian proclamation of independence of Kosovo on 17 February 2008. The author thoroughly examines the Serbian government’s official standpoint, the individual politicians’ opinions as well as positions of the main political parties, the Orthodox Church, numerous organisations, associations, representatives of academic and media circles, etc. The analysis ends with the beginning of December 2008 when Kosovo’s independence was recognised by 54 countries all over the world. The major thread of this paper, i.e. very strong Serbs’ opposition against the aforementioned proclamation of February 17 has been shown against the background of Serbian -Albanian relationship on the turn of the 20th and 21st century with particular emphasis on the years of 2007 -2008. Another factor that the author presents is a vast description of the process of gradual acceptance of Kosovo’s independence by more and more countries and their political and economic motivations in view of legal and political actions undertaken by Belgrade in order to question the legality of the secession act.

One of the most basic functions of the state is to ensure the security to it and its citizens. Significant elements are: perseverance, political independence, territorial integrity and maintenance proper level of life quality. Today’s intelligence, which is part of the structures of security organs, belongs to the elite part of the special forces performing strategic goals. Therefore, acquiring the information by OSINT is important not only for the institution itself but also for citizens. OSINT is one of the means by which security is provided to the internal and external states. Open source information is one of the agents of economic, political, military, etc. Books, periodicals, statistical yearbooks, social networking sites and daily newspapers belong to the basic, verified sources. In globalized world, OSINT has particular importance because, due to the obtained information, the state can take defensive action. In this article, the author pointed out the use of OSINT in the military diagnosis.

Artykuł przedstawia próbę instytucjonalnego podejścia do gospodarki. Korzystając z asocjacji z naukami o zarządzaniu, autorka proponuje, aby z pomocą podstawowych koncepcji nowej ekonomii instytucjonalnej dokonać rekonstrukcji spójnego i kompleksowego obrazu gospodarki. Jedno z kluczowych pojęć w tej dziedzinie, mianowicie governance, wykorzystuje jako narzędzie tworzenia tego obrazu. W tym ujęciu governance oznacza rozwiązywanie konfliktów w ramach gospodarującej organizacji, a government odnosi się do koordynacji interesów gospodarczych w strukturach państwa. Przedstawiona próba schematycznego ujęcia porządku gospodarczego zwraca uwagę również na rolę władzy, chociaż aspekt ten nie jest szerzej rozważany. Koncepcja porządku gospodarczego pomaga usystematyzować myślenie o gospodarce i zwraca uwagę na nierynkowe instytucje, które mogą wspomagać lub osłabiać konkurencję rynkową.

Using the association between economics and management science, the author proposes to reconstruct a cohesive and comprehensive picture of the economy. One of the crucial concepts in this field, governance, is employed as an instrument to create such a picture. In this approach, ‘governance’ means solving of conflicts arising within an economic organization while ‘government’ refers to the coordination of economic interests in the state structures. The presented attempt to interpret the economic order helps us to systematize our thinking about the economy, and it points at the role of non-market institutions which can support or mitigate market competition.

Проблема структуры и величины налогов обсуждается в контексте как классической, так и неоклассической и кейнсианской теории экономического роста. Классики экономической науки и Калецки высказывались в пользу прогрессивных налогов на доходы или имущество. Неоклассические экономисты и Калдор высказались за налогообложение потребления. Результаты эконометрических исследований подтверждают посткейсианскую теорию роста, опирающуюся на мультипликатор автономических расходов и концепцию Калецкого о прогрессивных налогах. Как следует из проведенного эмпирического анализа, налоговая политика в группе стран ОЭСР связана с величиной суммарного сальдо текущих операций, а также с величиной публичного долга. Выделено четыре типа налоговых политик: а) «налоговый дампинг», нацеленный на притяжение иностранных инвестиций (Ирландия и Центральная Европа), б) политику высокого публичного и внешнего долга, увязанную с ростом налогов (Южная Европа), в) политику сбалансированной внешней торговли и растущего внутреннего долга, связанную с высоким прямым налогообложением и низким косвенным (Франция, Италия), д) политику „обнищания соседа” (Германия, Голландия, Швейцария, Норвегия), для которой характерна средняя норма налогообложения.

On some aspects of business-state relations in Russia

EN
This article looks at the transition from the model of relationship between business and state, which dominated in Russia in the 1990s, to the one at the beginning of the 21st century. Russian history provides extensive evidence that business and state had always been closely connected and interdependent in this country. However, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, interdependency changed to dependency: while in the 1990s business was dominating the state, on the edge of two centuries the state took control over business. The tradition of close co-operation has been destroyed.

Adam Smith is commonly viewed as the founding father of economics. This conviction stems from the publication of The Wealth of Nations in 1776. Smith’s works are chiefly examined in terms of economics. The discovery of reports of his Lectures on Jurisprudence and defining them as a “bridge” between his ethics, law and economics allows researchers to analyze Smith’s work from a fresh perspective. The aim of the paper is to discuss complex relationships between ethics included in The Theory of Moral Sentiments and general principles of law and economics. The main conclusion of this paper is that Smith emphasized the mutual complementation of moral and legal norms in the context of the economic development of the commercial society.

The paper deals with legal and political factors affecting government dismissals during the Fifth Republic of France. The author draws attention to the role played by some characteristic properties of the French system of government, in which the government’s responsibility to the parliament (regulated in the constitution of 1958) is in practice supplemented with responsibility before the head of state (the latter type of political responsibility has not been anchored in the constitution itself). The analysis includes forty cabinets functioning in France from the late 1950s to the 2017 parliamentary elections. The successions of cabinets quite often took place for procedural reasons (not only after elections to the National Assembly, but also customarily after presidential ones). Decisions of this kind were also made by presidents themselves who — as actual leaders within the whole executive branch (outside periods of cohabitation) — were guided by their own political needs. As practice has shown, according to the logic of rationalised parliamentarism, the role of the parliamentary opposition was not significant in this respect. The same can be said about dismissals submitted by prime ministers who did not follow the previously expressed expectations of the head of state. It all leads to the conclusion that the durability of successively created governments was not very high, however this phenomenon resulted from completely different reasons than in the case of unstable cabinets functioning in non-rationalised parliamentary regimes (under the Third and Fourth Republics).

The aim of the article is to present an interpretation of the requirement that internal legal enactments be issued on the basis of statute (Article 93 para. 2 of the Constitution). This constitutional prerequisite provides the basis for two kinds of approach. Under the fi rst one, Article 93(2) of the Constitution requires that an authorizing provision that defi nes the entity, the form and content of the internal enactment be created by statute. The second approach permits an internal enactments to be based on the norms of statute which defi ne the tasks and powers of a particular authority. In the author’s view, the interpretation of the statutory basis requirement should be made in reference to a number of constitutional principles, including reliability and effi ciency of the constitutional bodies as well as the stability and permanence of legislation. In view of these values, the requirement for a statutory basis should be treated fl exibly so as to provide an appropriate instrument to government administration to exert infl uence on its subordinate organizational structure.

The article presents an analysis of the activities undertaken by Poles in Lithuania following the parliamentary election of 2012. The Polish minority took an active part in the Lithuanian politics. Związek Polaków na Litwie [The Union of Poles in Lithuania] followed by Akcja Wyborcza Polaków na Litwie [Electoral Action of Poles in Lithuania] presented their programs for the coming elections. Their involvement in the Lithuanian politics at the national level enabled them to articulate issues important for the Polish community in Lithuania. AWPL participated in the governing coalition. The political circumstances made their proposed solutions not easy to implement. Some problems were temporarily resolved, while most of the important issues remained under discus-sion. The analysis is based on various documents: agreements, treaties, declarations, statements. Also, it uses press material available in the Internet editions.

This paper introduces the history of the concept of governance in the European and non-European context, putting special emphasis on perspectives that present the most common ways of its defining and investigating by different authors in the political sciences and public policy from the past to the present. Knowledge of these perspectives allows to understand and explore the modes and circumstances related to the coordination of public and social policies focused on solution of contemporary societal problems and new social risks. In particular, the paper presents six different but mostly used perspectives that accentuate (1) the decreasing role of the government, (2) the way in which large corporations are managed and controlled, (3) the introduction of new public management, (4) the existence of countries characterized by more or less democratic government, (5) the greater involvement of social actors in addressing societal problems, and (6) the growing role of inter-organizational and self-organizing networks of actors influencing the policy-making and/or policy implementation of public and social policies. In conclusion, we summarize key findings and briefly propose concrete analytical steps that can be used to operationalize the concept of governance in order to best understand the processes of this phenomena that can be explored in public policy as a scientific discipline and societal practice.

On August 15, Mariusz Błaszczak, Minister of National Defense, and Michael Pompeo, U.S. Secretary of State, signed an agreement to strengthen the permanent presence of U.S. troops in Poland. The agreement was signed in the presence of the President of the Republic of Poland Andrzej Duda. The agreement sets the legal framework for the presence of U.S. troops in Poland. The adopted principles are based to a large extent on regulations common to all NATO members, i.e. the NATO SOFA agreement of 1951, which Poland adopted with its membership in the North Atlantic Alliance. The agreement, which replaces the existing agreement from 2009, has been concluded for an indefinite period, and both parties can terminate it after informing the partner. This article details the provisions of the new international agreement, comparing its provisions with the existing legal regulations in the field of Polish-American cooperation.
