POLISH SMART CITY – THE LEGAL PERSPECTIVE
POLISH SMART CITY – THE LEGAL PERSPECTIVE

Summary/Abstract: The intensification of urbanisation processes, involving the population moving to cities, poses a challenge to public administration. The smart city concept can help to challenge them. In this article, I will introduce its historical background and doctrinal approach to it as well perform research on it from a legal science perspective. I will analyse the international, EU and national regulations constituting the legal basis for the establishment of smart cities in Poland. In the search for a legal definition of the concept of a smart city, I will refer to the methods of measuring it. I will attempt to answer the question of whether we can currently discuss Polish smart cities at all. I will also state the de lege ferenda proposals for the definition of a smart city.
