Commons — dobra wspólnie użytkowane. Prawnoporównawcze aspekty korzystania z zasobów wodnych (Grzegorz Blicharz)
Commons — common-pool resources. Comparative legal aspects of using the water resources (Grzegorz Blicharz)

Summary/Abstract: This text is an analysis of Grzegorz Blicharz’s book on common-pool resources. The benefits which can be acquired by lawyers through using the concept of goods developed in economics have been pointed out. It is also emphasized that in Blicharz’s considerations, the use of Roman law as a specific pattern of commons regulation is a new element in the context of the hitherto literature on the subject. The author’s presentation of the public trust doctrine, developed by the US Supreme Court in its jurisprudence on environmental goods, may be relevant to Polish debates on ownership. In addition, the work of G. Blicharz can be considered a good introduction to empirical research on the legal aspects of management of jointly used water resources in Poland.
