Some Remarks on General Administration of the Second Polish Republic in the Light of Jarosław Kostrubiec’s Monograph “Administracja ogólna w myśli prawniczej Drugiej Rzeczypospolitej”

Abstract

This review article is devoted to the problems of general administration in interwar Poland, based on Jarosław Kostrubiec’s monograph entitled Administracja ogólna w myśli prawniczej Drugiej Rzeczypospolitej. The Author’s main goal was to determine the political and legal position of general administration in Polish jurisprudence of the discussed period, which found expression not only in the literature of the subject, but first and foremost in the premises and drafts of normative acts, as well as the propositions of then functioning Commissions for the Improvement of Public Administration. This objective has been achieved, and the reader has been presented with a concise monograph, which presents the doctrine’s view of the important concepts of administrative law and the science of administration: general administration, consolidation of administration, and deconcentration of administration. The unquestionable achievement of the Author is his references to the currently binding doctrine of administrative law when analyzing the conceptual nomenclature of the Second Polish Republic. This has allowed to bring the achievements of Polish jurisprudence of the interwar period closer to his contemporaries.
