Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two thoughts about Poland's security situation. The first is "optimistic" in the context of the safe situation in Europe and with our neighbors. The second is "pessimistic" in light of new threats like world-wide terrorism. Additionally, the question is: who will be a partner in Polish security; UN, NATO, EU or ...? I will analyze the military's role in peacetime, crisis and war. I will answer the question, what transformation of Polish Armed Forces should happen in the 21st Century and when will we face new challenges. I will also analyze the military's role in national and international defense of freedom, justice and peace, which are the basic Polish National Values.

The advantages of the book include a comprehensive and synthetic approach to the issues related to the cybersecurity system of the Republic of Poland, a research perspective that takes as the basic level of analysis issues related to the security of the state and citizens, and the analysis of additional issues related to cybersecurity, such as cybercrime, cyberterrorism, and the problem of collision between states ensuring security cybernetics and human rights.

Download or read book Polish Defense Policy in the Context of National Security Strategy written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the turn of this century, stability on the European continent has to a large degree depended on political-military cooperation among European countries as well as the establishment of common goals to eliminate current threats and risks such as terrorism. As far as Poland is concerned, its priority is to be an active leader in improving common security policy within the boundaries of the European Union (EU) and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Polish security policy and strategy is shaped by its geographical location, which places Poland in NATO's main strategic area opposite the Russian Federation and Belarus. In other words, Poland sees itself as the eastern edge of NATO's area and as a front-line country. This motivates Poland to support NATO's further enlargement to the East because Warsaw understands that it is a primary key to stability in Europe and has a responsibility to support NATO activities in this region. This thesis analyzes the character of Polish Defense Policy after integration into NATO and the EU, and the impact this policy has had on its national interests. It focuses specifically on Poland's ongoing efforts to adjust its defense policy and strategy to meet contemporary demands through political-military cooperation and dialog with its allies.

Download or read book The Politics and Policy of U S Bases in Poland written by Department of Defense and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-10 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study treats Polish-American bilateral relations in the past and present, with special concern for contemporary themes of armaments. This work seizes upon the author's experience in the U.S. Embassy, Warsaw, as well as scholarly analysis. Together with NATO allies, the United States has begun the fielding of an anti-missile system directed against Iran. By dint of policy and geography, the Republic of Poland's status as one of closest allies to the United States put it at the forefront of the candidates to host the interceptor portion of the system. In addition to the U.S. anti-missile installation, the Polish government wants significant U.S. forces stationed in Poland as a symbol of collective defense. As in other cases of the politics of forward defense in NATO in the past and present, the Poles desire an unshakable commitment to forward defense at a time of strategic retrenchment and shifts in the international system. The modifications of the plans for the proposed bases as a result of policy, strategy and budgets were caused by changes of leadership in both the U.S. and Poland; further, such change has arisen about U.S. concerns from Russia and other European countries, to say nothing of the global economic crisis that drastically reduced the ability of the United States and its allies to maintain a defense effort in the face of sharp austerity.

Download or read book Dilemmas of Polish Military Strategy written by Slawomir Wojciechowski and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout its long existence, the rules of regional geopolitics, historical experience and national strategic culture have had a deep impact on Polish security strategies. In the modern times, however, the national security environment is witnessing an appearance of new global trends and the birth of new paradigms of conflict. Security challenges require new approaches, but at the same time, they demand the preservation of equilibrium and harmony between objectives, concepts and resources. Motivated by the increasing complexity of emerging phenomena, Polish strategists are making efforts to find the appropriate solutions to new demands. However, the evolving character of security alliances and the gradual shift of the global power balance will compel Poland to accept the consequences and risks of inevitable strategic choices. By analyzing foundations and the future challenges to national security concerns, this paper explores the wide range of factors that influence Polish contemporary strategic behavior and motivations in the broad context of current Euro-Atlantic relations.

Download or read book Poland s Security Policy written by Justyna Zając and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-02 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how the changing post-Cold War order affected Poland’s security policy and particularly how the West’s weakening position and Russia’s revisionist policy reinforced the traditional view of security in Poland. It addresses the reasons why Poland, a middle power in Central Europe, adopted a bridging strategy in the early 1990s; how this strategy changed along with the redistribution of power in the international system; why, after the 2008 Georgian-Russian War, Poland took steps to support NATO consolidation, strengthen relations with the USA, and expand its own military capabilities; and how the Ukraine crisis affected Poland's security. This overview is an invaluable resource for students of international and European studies, security studies, political science, as well as for decision-makers, politicians, EU staff, and anyone interested in international politics in Central Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poland is very often seen as a Central European leader. Our leadership efforts are not only in the political area but on a military platform also. Poland has a lot of influence on other countries in this region. We are working to integrate these countries and support their efforts to join NATO or the European Union (EU). Poland is undergoing reforms in order to comply with NATO and EU standards. There are different opinions, very often wrong, about Polish reforms of Strategic Documents, Defense Planning, Personnel Management and other very important areas that reflect progress in conformity to NATO or EU standards. Meeting these standards can give Poland the credibility of a leading power in this part of Europe. Understanding the current status of reforms and the current situation in Poland should be a very important issue for anyone who is interested in this part of Europe and the World. In my paper, I want to show how Poland is making improvements in the very important areas of defense and strategy. I want to look at how we, the Polish people, and the military understand these improvements and how Poland wants to execute and finalize all mentioned reforms that we have begun. I also want to show the main problems and difficulties that slow progress and execution of the reforms. Finally, I want to show where Poland is now and how it wants to continue reforms in the future.

Download or read book Making Strategy written by Dennis M. Drew and published by . This book was released on 2002-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National secuirty strategy is a vast subject involving a daunting array of interrelated subelements woven in intricate, sometimes vague, and ever-changing patterns. Its processes are often irregular and confusing and are always based on difficult decisions laden with serious risks. In short, it is a subject understood by few and confusing to most. It is, at the same time, a subject of overwhelming importance to the fate of the United States and civilization itself. Col. Dennis M. Drew and Dr. Donald M. Snow have done a considerable service by drawing together many of the diverse threads of national security strategy into a coherent whole. They consider political and military strategy elements as part of a larger decisionmaking process influenced by economic, technological, cultural, and historical factors. I know of no other recent volume that addresses the entire national security milieu in such a logical manner and yet also manages to address current concerns so thoroughly. It is equally remarkable that they have addressed so many contentious problems in such an evenhanded manner. Although the title suggests that this is an introductory volume - and it is - I am convinced that experienced practitioners in the field of national security strategy would benefit greatly from a close examination of this excellent book.

Download or read book Poland s Engagement in the Global War on Terrorism written by Janusz Adamczak and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The events of September 11 started a new age in the history of the modern world. The attack on the World Trade Center broke some kind of a moral barrier in the way war was waged by worldwide terrorist organizations. World and local leaders realized that there is no safe place on this earth and that terrorists' capabilities had become almost unlimited. Such a situation caused many states to pledge their willingness to support the anti-terrorism coalition lead by the United States. The bombing in Madrid and hijacking of coalition countries' citizens in Iraq faltered the strength of the coalition and has caused some countries to step back. Despite recurrent menaces and over twenty citizens lost in Iraq, Polish policy regarding her involvement in the anti-terrorist coalition remains constant. This paper will examine Polish National Security Strategy and its Homeland Security Policy in response to the growing worldwide terrorism threat. Moreover, it will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of Poland's engagement in the anti-terrorism world coalition and present implications of Polish policy on political- and military-related issues.
