Abstract |
The article presents a comparative study of different compulsory purchase compensation solutions adopted in Poland and other selected countries. The study mainly used the answers given by respondents form 12 countries located on three continents (Europe, Asia and Australia). Methods used for data processing included descriptive analysis and the method of cluster analysis. One examined which countries fulfill in their procedures of compulsory purchase compensation determination the FAO’s five principles most and which don’t. The results of the research were presented in tables and charts bearing appropriate comments. The study shows, among others that the whole principle of equivalence is observed in 6 countries and the principle of flexibility in 10 countries. Whereas from the given graph, one can read, that the countries that implemented the FAO’s five principles most fully are Finland and Norway.
The obtained results, justify the need for further research in this field. The lack of data has been noticed for example in the issue of definitions of market value and replacement value in particular countries or the date and the kind of land use taken while determining the value of expropriated property and the value of the additional losses. |
