Celem niniejszego opracowania jest ukazanie, że wpisanie w ogólne prawo międzynarodowe organów rozstrzygających z zakresu międzynarodowego pra­wa praw człowieka jest na tyle silne, iż czyni naukowo koniecznym odrzucenie twierdzeń przemawiających na rzecz pełnej autonomii (niezależności) organów sądowych w prawie międzynarodowym. Powyższe ustalenie nie stanowi jednak celu samego w sobie. Antycypowane wpisanie organów rozstrzygających z zakresu międzynarodowego prawa praw człowieka w prawo międzynarodowe umożliwi udowodnienie istnienia wpływu (oddziaływania) humanizacji prawa międzynarodowego na międzynarodowy porządek prawny. Zwieńczeniem badań z tego zakresu jest konfirmacja hipotezy badawczej, zgodnie z którą organy rozstrzygające z zakresu międzynarodowe­go prawa praw człowieka przyczyniają się nie tylko do humanizacji prawa mię­dzynarodowego, lecz także do daleko idącej internacjonalizacji praw człowieka. Wprowadzenie owych dwóch kategorii (tj. humanizacji prawa międzynarodo­wego i internacjonalizacji praw człowieka) stanowi novum w dotychczas prowa­dzonych badaniach temu poświęconych, a weryfikacja tak postawionej hipotezy wyznacza zakres konstatacji, realizowanych na podstawie metody analitycznej oraz metody formalno-dogmatycznej.

The aim of this study, whose material scope will be determined by the Polish (constitutional), international (human rights-related) and EU legal order, is to refer the principle of equality before the law to the subject matter of social exclusion. The doubt whether this principle provides a normative anchoring for the protection of an individual against social exclusion and to what extent from the perspective of efficiency of this protection a possible reference to the principle of equality before the law is sufficient has been placed in the framework of a research hypothesis. It is because if we recognize, de lege lata, that the formulation (identification) of the right to protection against social exclusion is premature, we must ask a question about programme guarantees of protection against exclusion, and in consequence, whether the principle of equality before the law plays the function of such a guarantor. The settlement of this question was made the research purpose of this study and the author uses the analytical method and the method of interpretation of the law in force in the course of her research.

The overall objective of this paper is to outline the evolution of human rights policy in the European Union, with particular emphasis on the delimitation of time resulting from the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon signed on 13 December 2007, which revealed how strongly law is related to politics. Focusing on that issue is not accidental. This results from the fact that the European Union is an excellent example of an international organization whose priority aim at the moment of its creation was not the protection of human rights treated as an end in itself, and which in the course of its development has made the protection and promotion of human rights, “a silver thread running through all EU actions “. The specific objectives (though no less important from the point of view of the essence of human rights protection in the European Union) are: to show the systemic nature of the protection of those rights, the nature which is increasingly becoming part of the European Union, hitherto breaking somewhat the monopoly of the Council of Europe in this field; and to evaluate the European Union policy on the protection of human rights.

The actions indicated above and taken by the United Nations and the European Union (in spite of their different international law status) argue that objectives attributed to international organisations are not only postulates, but a basis for actions taken specifically, both in the legal and actual dimension. Therefore, the main research objective adopted for this study was to bring them closer, with particular emphasis on the UN and the EU joint actions for international security. Due to the complexity and multifaceted nature of the discussed subject matter of these considerations, they will be confined to the T-306/01 Ahmed Ali Yusuf and Al Barakaat International Foundation case recognized by the EU Court of First Instance. In there, as in a lens, interrelationships between the international organisations in questions are concentrated; and not only in terms of international cooperation, but, more importantly, in terms of the principle of the primacy of the United Nations law over other legal regimes.
