From human rights to human wrongs. How local government can negatively influence the situation of an individual. The case of Polish LGBT ideology-free zones*

The article deals with the phenomena of LGBT ideology-free zones, zones created by almost a hundred units of local government in Poland, an EU member state. I argue in this piece that although the resolutions creating these zones were adopted by local government units in Poland, the primary responsibility for them should be attributed to the Polish Government. The article analyses how the government supports LGBT ideology-free zones, as they are with line with so-called culture wars conducted by government, and how the international community (including the European Union and Council of Europe) have reacted to them.
