abstract = {Precautionary principle (PP) is commonly understood as a criterion that should be used in decision-making under risk and/or uncertainty. Yet, long before the approval of PP in the literature – a set of concrete, formal criterions existed in the field of decision theory. Therefore the main goal of this paper is to compare these classical decision – rules with PP. This very comparison will bring us to answer the question: if PP may be reduced to any of the classical criterions? It will tur out that such a reduction cannot be done. Therefore PP has got its own specificity.
