Abstract

The international regime of nuclear energy law is characterized by the unique combination and mutual influence of binding law and non-binding documents. These documents are adopted by international organizations. One of the most important organisation is the International Atomic Energy Agency, and the guidelines and recommendations adopted by this organisation are considered to be exemplary, hence their worldwide application as soft law. In the article below, the author examines the possibilities of implementing these documents into the nuclear energy law in Poland. The impact of soft law on the development of this law area is also examined, including a demonstration of links between international, European and domestic law. As a result of the research, the author shows that the application of the soft law in the Polish nuclear energy law significantly influences its adjustment to international standards.
