Compensation for Damage Caused by the State to Individuals as a Manifestation of a Functional Rule of Law

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This chapter examines state liability for damages as an essential manifestation of the rule of law in the Czech Republic, with comparative insights for Poland. It situates the rule of law within Czech constitutional doctrine and jurisprudence, emphasizing its material dimension and the duty of the state to be held accountable for unlawful acts. Against this background, the chapter explores the evolution of the European Union’s concept of state liability for breaches of EU law, particularly through the landmark Francovich and subsequent judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union. The analysis highlights the inherent tensions between national legislation—specifically Czech Act No. 82/1998 Coll.—and EU law requirements, pointing to deficiencies in the current Czech framework. It further considers problematic aspects such as liability of legislatures and courts of last instance, limits of liability, and the interplay between EU case law and national legal systems. Finally, it provides recommendations for reform at both EU and national levels, weighing the options of codification in primary or secondary EU law, legislative amendments in national systems, and the risks of maintaining the current judicially constructed regime.
