For many centuries we have not been able to see the opportunities and potential created by the coastal location of our country. In the current strategic documents in Poland, there are also no proper references to the maritime security of the state, although we are a member of both NATO and the European Union. The article presents the creation process in 2015–2017 and the content of a unique document devoted to this issue: Poland’s Strategic Concept for Maritime Security, which was born thanks to the efforts of “enthusiasts” of maritime affairs from the Naval Academy, Shipbuilding Council and the Institute of General Józef Haller under the leadership of the National Security Bureau. In the authors opinion, the document is to form the basis for work on the future maritime security strategy of our country, and also become the “engine” of public discussion in Poland on maritime security issues and the effective use of the coastal position of the state for economic development.}, type={Article}, title={Poland’s stategic concept for maritime security}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/114463/PDF/PM%20t.36%207-A.Makowski.pdf}, doi={10.24425/pm.2019.131054}, keywords={national security, maritime security, strategy, concept, strategic planning}, }
