Abstract
Expropriation rights are conferred also to the subjects of private law by a number of provisions of the applicable legislation. This topic was addressed already by Jiří Pražák in his German written study "Das Recht der Enteignung in Österreich", which was published in 1877.Although state authority hasn't been delegated to these subject, they do possess a number of rights arising from the issued concessions.
This article is dealing with the relationship of these subjects vis-á-vis the state, with the question of public interest which is to be enforced by the subjects of private law and at last but not at least, with the issue of prospective unification of expropriation rights.
