• Title:
  Conflicts of public interests in connection with the mining activities of hard coal mines
• Creator:
  Żurawik, Artur
• Description:
  Mining activity remains crucial for protecting the state’s interests as a whole and ensuring its energy security. Coal deposits of various types are a national good, but exhaustible. On the one hand, they should be taken care of when running a rational extractive economy especially in the context of the constitutional principle of sustainable development, on the other hand, however, one should be conscious of possible conflicts of interests arising in the context of such activities. After all, extractive activity is not irrelevant either to the environment or to the various entities interests and these could be both individual and public. A particularly interesting case could be that of a conflict of public interests of the State Treasury and local government units, which are exposed to the negative effects of the functioning of mines. Similar conflicts ofinterests arise in relations between the European Union and some Member States, which base their energy security on coal. These selected aspects are the subject of this study.
