Abstract
The article provides an analysis of the essence, scope and basic determinants of the revenue autonomy of local government units in Poland. The considerations are theoretical, based on a critical review of the relevant literature and on the analysis of the most important legal acts determining the Polish legal and financial system of local government. What is worth emphasizing is that autonomy is the paramount value of local government. In accordance with Polish constitutional law, local government bodies participate in the exercise of public authority, perform public tasks in their own name and under their own responsibility, and require autonomy that is subject to judicial protection. The autonomy of local government units is a complex and multifaceted issue. It can and should be considered with regard to legal, organizational, political, property, economic and financial aspects. Financial autonomy, especially in terms of revenues, plays a significant role in activities and development prospects of local government units.
