The activity of local government, professional and business self-governments, as wellas public law entities such as the Polish Red Cross, the Polish Academy of Sciences or theBank Guarantee Fund, significantly contributes to the improvement of the quality of life inPoland. It is difficult to imagine effective state functioning without the existence of this categoryof legal entities. Being independent in their actions, they are at the same time a part of thestate apparatus, whose activity is based on the systemic principle of decentralization and theparticipation of citizens in the exercise of public authority. It can be said that their existenceand conditions of operation constitute a kind of litmus paper test of realizing the idea of ademocratic legal state.This article presents considerations regarding the genesis of public law entities. It presents theviews of the legal doctrine concerning entities governed by public law, starting from the turnof the 18th and 19th centuries, through the 19th centuryand XX century, ending with the contemporarytimes.
