English abstract: The aim of this article is to present various ways of defining the principles of law in criminal procedural law and to examine whether the science of the Polish criminal procedure draws on the achievements of general theory of law or whether it attempts to create its own concept in this regard. In this study, in order to answer the research question, an analysis is conducted of both current and historical perception of principles in the criminal procedure and an assessment is made of the extent to which individual authors rely on the traditional model of perception of the principles of law, or whether they apply their own viewpoint in this regard due to what they see as particularities of the criminal procedure or the incompatibility of general concepts. The result of the presented work is an answer to the question how the principles of law are perceived in the Polish criminal procedure, taking into account the division into the principles of criminal procedure, the main principles of criminal procedure in an abstract or concrete understanding, the principles of criminal proceedings as defined or undefined principles, codified or uncodified ones, or as codified and defined principles, codified and undefined ones, or uncodified ones, as well as lists of these principles and their systems.
