The aim of this study was to present private and official codifications concerning the topic of responsibility of international organizations. Moreover, it highlighted some controversial issues which occurred during the work of International Law Commission (ILC). The topic of responsibility of international organizations was analyzed both by private bodies such as Institute de Droit International and International Law Association and – as mentioned above – ILC. The efforts of Institute de Droit International resulted in a resolution on The Legal Consequences for Member States of the Non-fulfilment by International Organizations of their Obligations toward Third Parties. While in 1996 International Law Association studied these topics, a Committee on the Accountability of International Organizations was established. These private drafts paid attention of ILC to some legal issues which helped ILC to identify problems which require further discussion. After completion of its work on State responsibility in 2001, ILC decided to include the topic Responsibility of International Organizations in its work program. Mr G. Gaja was appointed the Special Rapporteur and in years 2003-2011 he presented eight reports which took into account the comments and observations received from governments and international organizations. In his reports he largely followed the model of Articles on State Responsibility for Internationally Wrongful Acts. In 2011 the Commission adopted the draft of 67 articles on Responsibility of International Organizations, divided into six parts. The Draft Articles aimed at codification of a set of secondary rules applicable to a wide range of international organizations. The codifications of rules on the responsibility of international organizations was a very difficult task due to diversity of international organizations, which differ in size, functions and competence. Furthermore, there is a lack of relevant practice that would allow to elaborate the principles relating to responsibility of international organizations. Nonetheless, the responsibility for international wrongful acts is the most important institution of international law irrespective of the subject which committed a wrongful act. ; Artykuł nie zawiera abstraktu w języku polskim

Social cooperatives in the function of social enterprises are classified as a group of employers of the open labour market. In view of their specific functioning they prepare and offer some work places to people being away from the labour market. The article attempts to characterize and evaluate the existing funding opportunities for social economy enterprises in Poland on the example of social cooperatives of legal entities in the context of the development of social economy in the area of social policy understood as one of the components of public policy. This article is a review of the current scientific literature in the field of social entrepreneurship and current legislation on social cooperatives. The presented data suggests that currently, social cooperatives have various forms and sources of financing for their activities. They operate in the sphere of public utilities, filling the gap in the provision of publicly available services which cannot be filled by free market entities or state institutions. Their activity is financed mainly from own funds, which can be supplemented with financial support from the state budget or a local government unit as well as bank loans and the European Union fund.

We analyze the system of organization of science and its change in Poland in the last quarter century, in the context of parallel changes in the world. Based on our experience at the International Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology in Warsaw, but also thanks to good models from other institutions in Poland and abroad, we present our thoughts on the question of how to develop science in Poland. We think that in order to improve the system of science organization in our country and quickly achieve a positive effect, we must use proven models from other countries and positive examples of our own Polish successes. The implementation of these tasks requires courageous political decisions that will provide the scientists with the freedom necessary to work effectively, but will also bind this freedom with responsibility. Thanks to people, who take up this responsibility and take full advantage of the opportunities offered, Poland will have a chance for rapid civilization progress. Investments in science are crucial to the development of each country. ; Analizujemy system organizacji nauki i jego zmiany w Polsce w ostatnim ćwierćwieczu, w kontekście zmian równolegle zachodzących na świecie. W oparciu o nasze doświadczenia z pracy w Międzynarodowym Instytucie Biologii Molekularnej i Komórkowej w Warszawie, ale także dzięki dobrym wzorcom z innych instytucji w Polsce i za granicą, przedstawiamy nasze przemyślenia w odpowiedzi na pytanie, jak rozwijać naukę w Polsce. Uważamy, że aby usprawnić system organizacji nauki w naszym kraju i szybko osiągnąć pozytywny efekt, należy skorzystać ze sprawdzonych wzorów z innych krajów oraz pozytywnych przykładów własnych polskich sukcesów. Realizacja tych zadań wymaga odważnych decyzji politycznych, które zapewnią naukowcom niezbędną do efektywnej pracy wolność, ale także powiążą tę wolność z odpowiedzialnością. Dzięki ludziom, którzy się tego podejmą i odpowiedzialnie wykorzystają oferowane możliwości, Polska będzie miała szansę na szybki postęp cywilizacyjny. Inwestycje w naukę są kluczowe dla rozwoju każdego kraju.
