Humand Rights Considered by Constitution of Polish Republic from April 2nd, 1997 as Compared to that of People's Polish Republic from July 22nd, 1952
Abstract
Passed by Polish Parliament on July 22nd, 1952, Constitution gave the definition of human and citizen rights as comparative ones for thereason of political conditions (totalitarian state) and the level of science on human rights before 1952. The differences in the definition of the said rights in Constitution passed on April 2nd, 1997 rose in consequence of assuming philosophical and social premises, and the principles of international law to Polish law system and another − modern level of science of human rights.
In the year 1944-1989 − so-called people’s democracy period, all regulations were based on positive law. Constitutional definitions were expressed too generally and enabled the authorities to interpret those constitutional articles. In practice constitutional articles were so specifically interpreted and in the matter of fact those rights were regulated and citizens couldn’t enjoy their human rights. This situation may be justified only by omnipotence totalitarian state − People's Polish Republic.
The Constitution passed on April 2nd, 1997 describes human and citizen rights more precisely with accommodation to international law system standards. Those regulations are based on modern science of subjective laws, that are common to everybody.
