Inicjatywa ustawodawcza na poziomie państwowym i europejskim – pozorny instrument uspołecznienia procesu prawotwórczego w koncepcji governance
Legislative initiative at the state and European level as a sham instrument for the socialization of the law-making process in accordance with the concept of governance

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to show the origin and characteristics of the citizens’ legislative initiative and the European legislative initiative through the prism of the concept of good governance, which postulates decision-making inclusiveness. The hypothesis assumed in the considerations indicates that the legislative initiative, as a general power at the national or European level, in its current form, is only a sham instrument for socialization of the law-making process in accordance with the concept of governance. Both institutions in question formally fit into this concept, but the analysis of their functioning in practice shows a contradiction with its essence. The content of the considerations consists of both theoretical and legal remarks as well as those related to practical implementation of the examined legal provisions.
