A DECADE OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLIC OF POLAND VERSUS AGRICULTURAL LAW

The dissertation concerns the influence of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland (passed on 2 April 1997) on the formation of agricultural law. The two most significant constitutional principles concerning agricultural issues are the systemic principle from Article 23, according to which a family farm is the basis of the agrarian system, and the principle of protection of property and inheritance, included in Article 21. These constitutional principles and their realization in the ordinary legislation are the subject of this dissertation. .
