Abstract

The subject of the analysis in this article are the legal regulations contained in the French Penal Code in the scope relating to the crime of espionage. As part of this study, which is only an initial stage and an impulse for further extended research in this matter, the author, apart from issues related to the crime of espionage, also presents the systematics and specificity of the French Penal Code, that can significantly improve understanding of the nature of the analyzed regulations. The importance of conducting comparative research in this area also results from the geopolitical situation that occurred after the Russian Federation launched its invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The description and characteristics of legal regulations regarding the crime of espionage in French law, as an element of research on broadly understood state security, may be an interesting impulse for reflection on the state of Polish regulations in this matter.
