This thesis whose topic is "Environmental policy in the context of competition policy within the European Union" I take to make clear, at least in part, the relationship of the environment and competition, from the perspective of European Union policies. I achieve this by analysis of the relationship of basic values of the EU policies, specifically finding their harmony or conflict, or finding harmony and contradictory points. I consider the comparison of objectives and principles as an appropriate means for consultation at the elementary level of this relationship. I also deal with questions whether the primary law of the Union is prepared to a possible conflict of policies and whether in this case governs their relationship. The conclusion of this work is that environmental protection is not in direct conflict, or in full compliance with the protection of competition. The relationship of the two policies and their ideal setting must be considered for each individual case. Individual competition policy goals and values of environmental policy and their implementation can be both, inconsistent and also consistent, due to the rate and method of the regulation of that relationship. The principles of integration and sustainable development define status of environmental policy. The core of this...
