Si l'intégration des exigences environnementales est inscrite dans les textes et, pour partie, dans la réalité, la relation entre les droits de l'environnement et de la concurrence demeure problématique, car les valeurs que le premier vise à protéger sont à bien des égards des valeurs "exogènes au marché". Consacré formellement, mais mal connu et souffrant d'une qualification juridique difficile à cerner, le principe d'intégration ne permet pas une intégration substantielle des droits et des politiques de l'environnement et de la concurrence. L'objet de la thèse est donc d'abord, par un travail de réflexion sur les catégories et concepts des deux disciplines, de mettre en lumière les limites de la situation actuelle. Il est ensuite de s'interroger sur les évolutions en cours, et sur les conditions susceptibles de rendre effective une régulation des marchés prenant en compte les enjeux environnementaux. L'élévation de l'intérêt environnemental et l'avènement d'un ordre public écologique sont une des voies possibles d'une telle intégration, donnant aux juges un rôle fondamental à jouer dans la conciliation des intérêts en présence. / If the integration of environmental requirements is written in legal documents and in part in reality, the relation between environmental law and competition law remains problematic. Indeed, the values that environmental law seeks to protect are mainly outside of the scope of the markets. The principle of integration, if formally recognized, is not well known and suffers a lack of legal characterization. A substantial integration of law and policies of environmental law in competition law seems thus impossible. The purpose of this study is to analyze and highlight the limitations of the current situation, by studying and comparing the different concepts and categories present in those two fields. It is then possible to apprehend the evolutions that are taking place, as well as the conditions that could make effective a regulation of the markets that would take in consideration the issues of environmental law. A solution would be to elevate the interest of environmental law and see the emregence of an ecological public order. Such integration would give a central role to the judges in order to conceal the interests at stake. Another less traditional way would be the monetization of the environment.

OF THE DISSERTATION ON "PUBLIC INTEREST IN ENVIRONMENTAL LAW" Zdeněk Horáček, 2011 The dissertation examines public interest in environmental law. Due to the lack of professional resources dealing with the very concept of public interest, the dissertation offers its basic definition and relevant connections, but always in relation to the institutes of the environmental law. Interpretive and historical aspects of public interest are analyzed and basic definition features, classification and process of the formulation of public interest, including correction of the improper process, are established. The dissertation specifies public interest in environmental law as a legally defined value of environmental protection shared by whole society. Such a public interest is promoted in all the phases of evaluation and authorization of a project that may be harmful to the environment, in the extent always depending on the specific situation. The dissertation concludes that environmental protection is a worldwide shared value and public interest. In addition, public interest in environmental protection is a criterion for a decision making process carried out by public authorities, and the resulting public interest (adopted solution) depends on the specific circumstances of the situation.
