Abstract

The aim of the paper is to provide an overview of the civil security in Poland. To start with, the notion of civil security itself is debated in the first part of the chapter, where extant definitions related to the civil security are considered.

In the second part, main outlines of the civil security in Poland are presented based on peoples' perception of non-military threats. Here, also the regional context is brought into debate.

In the third and last section, the actual practice of civil security is compared with the theoretical approaches on the one hand; and with peoples' perceptions on the other hand.
