Abstract The effects of global warming in the Arctic region present a particular challenge for the European Union (EU), which seeks to profile itself as a leader in responding to climate change. Although the EU strives to prioritize climate protection, the Arctic region remains one of the EU’s major suppliers of energy, particularly oil and gas. The EU must thus strike a balance between climate change mitigation and adaptation, and energy security. The present article analyses the developments of the EU position in this field, particularly in light of the COP 21 negotiations, and the more recent 2016 Integrated European Union Policy for the Arctic. In doing so it seeks to explore to what extent the EU truly is fulfilling its own leadership aspirations in the field of climate change and energy in the Arctic.

Clusters in the European Union policies are significant tool in boosting competitiveness and innovation of enterprises and regions. One of the most important documents in the European Union policy on clusters has been issued in 2008. Therefore, we can observe the emergence of a new kind of policy – cluster based policy. The goal of this article is to show that policy oriented on the clusters is aimed at developing a strategy for rising the competitiveness of regions and enterprises. One can risk the thesis that the concept of clustering is the answer to the question about a new way of generating competitiveness which takes into account a wide range of factors. The issue of clusters is associated with occurrence of a number of benefits for both participants in the cluster and as well as the whole economy. The author identifies and defines them as a benefit at the micro and macro level.
