Elementy wsparcia procesu stabilizacji i odbudowy państw

Stabilization and reconstruction of countries, although are often considered as distinct actions, usually are an integral part of many activities undertaken in the scope of crisis response operations, including mainly peace support operations. Therefore the statement that stabilization and reconstruction is a set of actions and tasks taken within the confines and background of crisis response operations, which is acknowledged as a main assumption of this consideration, needs to be emphasized. Taking into consideration the need of comprehensive approach to crisis response that is stressed nowadays, such a perception of the processes outlined above seems to be fully justified and desired, both by the political and military decision-makers. It also needs to be pointed out, that wide object scope that includes stabilization and reconstruction, requires knowledge systematization and its distribution among all subjects involved in these specific, but extremely necessary actions. Military success is just a prelude to further actions aimed to achieve a stable situation in a country, and only then the reconstruction of its governmental structures and security forces can be carried out. At the end of the process we should be able to pass on complete responsibility for a proper country's functioning to the local authorities.
