Współcześnie strategia przestała być domeną myśli wojskowej i jest obecna niemal we wszystkich obszarach działalności ludzkiej. Jej zasadniczymi atrybutami są upodmiotowienie, wyrażające się przynależnością strategii do konkretnego podmiotu (np. państwa), oraz uprzedmiotowienie, czyli odniesienie jej do konkretnej dziedziny działalności (np. gospodarki). Szczególne znaczenie mają te strategie, które powstały dla zaspokojenia bezpieczeństwa. Celem monografii jest uporządkowanie wiedzy teoretycznej, dokonanie syntezy współczesnych poglądów oraz zaprezentowanie praktycznych aspektów procesu formułowania, implementacji oraz oceny i weryfikacji strategii bezpieczeństwa. Jest to opracowanie analityczne, którego wartość użytkowa wynika z całościowego ujęcia kwestii teoretycznych oraz praktyki kreowania i realizacji strategii bezpieczeństwa we współczesnych, a także przyszłych uwarunkowaniach dynamicznego i nieprzewidywalnego środowiska bezpieczeństwa.
The following volume is devoted to the issues of European models of civil societies. The aim of the authors is not to exhaust the whole topic but to bring forward some studies related to the civil society, both in the historical but also present perspective. Civil society is an important factor in a well-functioning state and crucial for developing a real, active and conscious community, which is able to control the state and its’ servants. Even more importantly, when the state fails to react to negative developments or leaders misuse their power to enforce it in fulfilling its duties, and in the most radical, or dramatic cases to replace it or change the governors. Democratic order gives the society enough tools to do this and the internet, social media and other new means of communication improve the level of self-organisation and shorten the time for potential reactions.
This book provides a broad geopolitical and legal analysis of the longer-term dispute between the Belarusian regime and the European Union, played out through conflict on the Polish–Belarusian border, which started in 2021. Although Poland finds itself at the center of this conflict, the book covers all countries whose territorial integrity has been affected, revealing a Belarusian regime taking advantage of the refugee crisis as a tool of hybrid warfare for destabilizing the political situation. As such, it also examines the role of Russia and its influence by means of its Belarusian neighbor, exposing the underlying motivations and mechanisms used by the Lukashenko regime towards the Eur...
The European Union is increasingly being asked to manage crises inside and outside the Union. From terrorist attacks to financial crises, and natural disasters to international conflicts, many crises today generate pressures to collaborate across geographical and functional boundaries. What capacities does the EU have to manage such crises? Why and how have these capacities evolved? How do they work and are they effective? This book offers an holistic perspective on EU crisis management. It defines the crisis concept broadly and examines EU capacities across policy sectors, institutions and agencies. The authors describe the full range of EU crisis management capacities that can be used for internal and external crises. Using an institutionalization perspective, they explain how these different capacities evolved and have become institutionalized. This highly accessible volume illuminates a rarely examined and increasingly important area of European cooperation.
