This article examines, in a comparative perspective, the integration policy of the two, in many respects, very similar, neutral states, with particular emphasis on the period after the signing of the Single European Act. Despite the converging political and economic objectives, the decisions of both countries were determined by different economic and political conditions. For Austria, the integration processes were perceived as an important step, towards reconstruction of the economy, the abolition of trade barriers with the most important economic partner. In political terms integration – enhanced Austria’s position within European Community. Unlike the Austrian Government, the authorities in Bern have acted under much more polarized conditions. Neutrality played still very important role in its international policies and the social fears connected mostly to the loss of political and economic independence were vivid. The Swiss authorities were thus forced to choose the bilateral path, which was not preferred by EU countries, but more socially acceptable, and therefore easier to implement.

Polska zamierza w ciągu naibliższych kilku lat stać się pełnoprawnym członkiem Unii Europejskiej. Jednym z podstawowych warunków przyjęcia Polski do Unii będzie dostosowanie naszego systemu prawnego do reguł, obowiązujących we Wspólnotach Europejskich. Prowadzone przez organy Wspólnot Europejskich, od początku lat osiemdziesiątych prace doprowadziły do uchwalenia kilu dyrektyw i rezolucji, ustalających prawne ramy działalności reklamowej. Zgodnie z prawnym charakterem dyrektyw o formie prawnej regulacji oraz o wyborze organów rozstrzygających decydują kraje członkowskie Unii. Zasadą jest jednak, że rozwiązania przyjęte w poszczególnych krajach nie mogą być bardziej liberalne, niż zalecane w dyrektywach. Polskie prawo, zgodnie z Układem Stowarzyszeniowym z 16 XII 1991, jest stopniowo dostosowywane do rozwiązań obowiązujących w krajach Unii Europejskiej. Nadal jednak w świetle polskich ustaw uprawnienia konsumentów są mniejsze, niż prawa gwarantowane przez akty prawne Wspólnot Europejskich.

Poland is planning, during the next few years, to become a member of an European Community. One of the main conditions of accepting Poland as a EC Member is an accommodation of the Polish legal system to the regulations of the Communities.Since the eighties the bodies of the European Communities are trying to unify the regulations of advertising. According to the legal character of the directives the solutions, procedures and bodies are decided by the states - members of the EC. But the regulations can not be less restrictive than the common regulations, recommended by the directives. The polish law, according to the Treaty signed on December 16. 1991, has to be harmonised with the EC regulations. But still, the polish statues are giving to the consumers less rights, than is recommended by the EC directives.

The objective of this study is to describe Pope Paul VI’s European integration policy. From the 1950s, the Vatican had been one of strongest advocates and promoters of the idea of European integration. Pope Pius XII had been a convinced federalist and supported every pro-European initiative. During John XXIII’s pontificate, the topic of European integration was put temporarily on the backburner, but under Paul VI it once again became a fairly common topic of the Pope’s speeches. Paul VI built on the traditions of Pius XII and defended a strong European identity, demanded the weakening of state sovereignty and a bolder role for the European Community in development and humanitarian aid, including taking on a peace-keeping role in the world. This research draws mainly on documents contained in Acta Apostolicae Sedis.

The article focuses on the process of shaping social policy in the European Economic Community as well as the factors conditioning it in the fields of family support, education and public healthcare. It covers the period from the inception of the EEC to the signing of the Treaty on European Union in 1992 in Maastricht. The characteristic feature of Community social policy in mentioned-above areas was monitoring global trends in social issues and determining the EEC desired direction of aspirations along with defining general standards in the area of social policy. It was concluded that the further harmonious development of the Community would not be possible without making arrangements to solve problems common to all the Member States, such as unfavorable demographic projections, the need for adjusting the methods of education and training to the changing trends in the labor market or the epidemiological threats to the health of European citizens.
