BASIC ON THE PRINCIPLES OF PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS ON THE BASIS OF THE LAW ON PUBLICPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND CONCESSIONS

A sign of equality cannot be placed between legal principles and legal rules, which is also stated in the final part of the paper. Legal principles are constructed much more generally than the situation with legal rules. Legal principles do not create an absolutely clear picture of rights and obligations. In relation to moral and political principles, there are not so many great distinctions structurally and functionally even when legal principles are formulated. The aim of the paper is to "introduce" potential readers to the principles of public-private partnerships, as the Serbian legislator normatively set it by the Law on Public-Private Partnerships and Concessions. It is noticeable that the author referred exclusively to the principles of public-private partnerships, which corresponds to the title of the paper. All the principles provided for in Article 6 of the Law on Public-Private Partnerships and Concessions have been processed (with varying degrees of attention). When it comes to the principle of environmental protection as a necessity in the analysis, there was a need to consult the norms of the Law on Environmental Protection and the Law on Strategic Environmental Assessment. Finally, the author states that the binding nature of the principles of publicprivate partnerships means that public and private partners can in no way ignore them, especially given that they are engaged in the implementation of public-private partnership projects with significant financial and material resources
