IUS IN EUROPA
Summarium
In Europa ius, ut autonoma regulatio vitae consideratum et applicatimi, semper magna aestimatione gaudebat et gravi ponderis erat. Distinctio veri et falsi a Graecis elaborata, discretio boni et mali in traditione iudeochristiana radicata, itemque realismus romanus res magni ab illis parvi momenti disiungens criteria praebebant ad quaestiones fundamentales ponendas elueidandasque, nempe quid sit ius aequum et quomodo cognosci efficique possit. A primaevis culturae europeae usque ad hunc diem ius tamquam conditio vitae populorum servandae considerabatur. Pondus momentumque iuris in dies crescit, instrumentum est non solum iustitiae et liberationis (proli dolor deviationes non deerant), sed etiam evolutionis in ambitu sociali et oeconomico. Ultimis temporibus nova problemata emergimi, cum ius attentis generationibus futuris elaborar! debeat. Haec omnia in mentem revocantur attentis processibus transformations constitutionalis Rei Publicae Polonorum et respectu eius integrationis in Unione Europea. Animadversiones demonstratione principiorum fundamentalium et valorum intentorum finiuntur.am

European Solidarity and the Warin Ukraine–Crisis, Attempt or Deficit? The Perspective of Poland and the Countries of Central and Eastern Europe
The principle of solidarity is a key principle of social life in Catholic social teaching. It is also inherent in the culture of Europe and in the European Union documents. The extreme situations taking place in Europe allow to verify if the rule is actually applied in the solving of European problems. An important event in Europe in recent years is the war in Ukraine. Ukraine, aspiring to membership in the European Communities and associated with the European Union, has been encompassed by the principle of solidarity. Europeans living in the post-communist EU countries recognize, however, that solidarity is not the only key to solving the problem of Ukraine. Sometimes more important than solidarity seem to be the particular economic interests of the countries of the “old” EU , and solidarity remains a task to be accomplished.
