Opis:
“Operation Cast Lead” undertaken by the Israeli armed forces against Hamas forces in the Gaza strip in 2008/2009 raises a significant number of international legal issues. These issues relate to the nature of the military conflict, the legal status of the Gaza strip under international humanitarian law, but also, more generally, to the applicability and suitability of international humanitarian law in such kinds of asymmetric warfare taking place in densely populated areas. Besides, the article also questions at least some of the findings made by the “Goldstone Report” tasked by the United Nations Human Rights Council to investigate alleged violations of international humanitarian law during the armed conflict.

Opis:
W artykule przedstawiono analizy i oceny dotyczące przyczyn, źródeł, uwarunkowań oraz charakteru przyszłych wojen. Zostały one oparte o doświadczenia wynikające z działań zbrojnych, które miały miejsce pod koniec ubiegłego i na początku obecnego stulecia, a także poglądy współczesnych polemologów, politologów i specjalistów wojskowych. Zidentyfikowano zasadnicze rodzaje przyszłych wojen oraz dokonano ich charakterystyki ze względu na udział podmiotów, zasięg, intensywność, czas trwania i inne właściwości. Zaprezentowano także przewidywane następstwa wojen, wśród których szczególną uwagę zwrócono nie tylko na dezintegrację struktur oraz destabilizację ekonomiki i gospodarki państw, ale przede wszystkim na skutki społeczne, takie jak: straty fizyczne, ubóstwo, epidemie, niekontrolowane masowe migracje, demoralizację społeczeństw i elit politycznych oraz pogłębienie antagonizmów, postaw nacjonalistycznych czy innych wrogich stereotypów. Przedstawione treści mogą stanowić podstawę do określenia pożądanych kierunków działania podmiotów bezpieczeństwa, których celem jest zapobieganie sytuacjom kryzysowym, często rozwiązywanym za pomocą takiego narzędzia polityki, jakim jest wojna.
The article presents the analyses and evaluations of the causes, sources, conditions and nature of future wars. They were based on the experience of the military action that took place at the end of the last century and the beginning of this century. Moreover, contemporary views expressed by polemologs, political scientists and military experts were taken into account. The article identifies the principal types of future wars and their characteristics as regards involvement, scope, intensity, duration and other properties. In addition, it presents the expected consequences of war, among which special attention was paid not only to the disintegration of the structures and the destabilization of the economy and state economies, but also to social consequences, such as physical damage, poverty, epidemics, uncontrolled mass migration, the demoralization of society and political elites, and the deepening antagonisms of nationalistic attitudes or other hostile stereotypes. The article can be the basis for determining the desirable directions of security subjects, aimed at crisis prevention, often solved with such a policy tool as war.

Opis:
The end of the twentieth century wars initiated a paradigm shift. Conflicts that emerged at the end of the last century and developed in the early 21st century revealed new aspects of the armed struggle. The classic perception of war has been blurred. In place of the bipolar symmetry appeared asymmetric threats. The former state monopoly on the use of force was lost. Some new members of armed conflict appeared, traditional battlefield setting disappeared and progressive imbalance between the parties for the disposition of potential violence leads to inequality and instability in the world. Asymmetry became a main factor in determining the image of modern warfare.

Opis:
In order to describe the environment surrounding us, so complex in terms of relations resulting from using violence, we easily employ terms such as ‘partisan’ or ‘militant’, just in order to define the very same ones as terrorists a while later. Probably the benchmark of contemporary description, especially of political action is the lack of clear-cut attitudes. Terrorism is nothing new, and this statement in itself is not very revealing. However, for many contemporary researchers of this issue, there is never too much information. Terrorism has always accompanied the history of oppressive regimes as well as resistance movements and uprisings. All the same, within the anti- colonial insurrectionary movements of the mid-20th century which led to the fall of European colonial empires over a short period of time, terrorism achieved new quality. It should also be emphasized that it achieved considerable political successes compared to the social-revolutionary terrorism of the late 19th century. The attribute ‘terrorist’ serves as an excluding one in different relations. By employing such term, one that their cause is an unconventional one – leastways as long as specific ways of using violence are applied. On the other hand, groups classified as terrorist ones often describe themselves as partisans who are fighting for the liberation of certain social or ethnic groups and who have to employ “unconventional” methods of using force because of the military superiority of the oppressive regime. By describing certain actions as ‘terrorist’ one usually intends on bereaving it of every sort of political legitimation. Is there any aspect that terrorism and guerrilla actions have in common? In certain socio-revolutionary or ethno-separatist strategies of violence, the concept of terrorism consists in the idea of a ‘starter’ which is to create the conditions to commence the guerrilla war. There could also be groups acting as partisans on one front line, and as terrorists on the other. The example is Al-Qaeda: in Central Asia its network operated only temporarily, as a kind of guerrilla, while in the global scale it employed terrorist strategy.

Opis:
Odzyskanie niepodległości przez Polskę w 1918 roku z punktu widzenia Związku Sowieckiego oznaczało znaczne utrudnienie w realizacji planów wspomagania ruchów rewolucyjnych w Niemczech i innych krajach europejskich. W obliczu przegranej wojny z Polską, sowieci zorganizowali bardzo rozbudowany system, którego zadaniem było prowadzenie działalności dywersyjnej i terrorystycznej na Kresach Wschodnich. Planowanym efektem akcji wykorzystującej ludność białoruską, ukraińską i litewską, a także polskich komunistów, było wywołanie rewolucji, która uzyskałaby oczywiście wsparcie ze strony sowietów. W rezultacie, wschodnie regiony Polski miałyby zostać przyłączone do Związku Sowieckiego. Dzięki skutecznej akcji polskiego kontrwywiadu wojskowego i postawie społeczeństwa, polska granica wschodnia przetrwała aż do IV rozbioru Polski w 1939 roku.
Regaining independence by Poland in 1918 from the point of view of the Soviet Union meant a significant impediment to the implementation of plans to support revolutionary movements in Germany and other European countries. After the defeat in the war with Poland, Soviet government organized a very complex system, whose task was to carry out sabotage and terrorist activities in the Polish Eastern Borderlands. In these activities there were to be engaged the Belarussians, Lithuanians and Ukrainians, as well as Polish members of the communist party. The planned result of these activities were calling the revolution, which, of course, have obtained support from the Soviets. As a result, the eastern Polish regions would be connected to the Soviet Union. Thanks to effective action by the Polish military counterintelligence and the attitude of society, Polish eastern border lasted until the fourth partition of Poland in 1939.

Opis:
The study of warfare, throughout its history, as well as efforts to legally regulate the resort to war and the conduct of war, were concentrated exclusively on one form of warfare - interstate conflict. Only since the terrorist attacks on Washington and New York in 2001 and the following ‘Global War on Terrorism’ has a discussion on a potentially new kind of warfare - asymmetric warfare - moved into the spotlight. Despite all the scientific attention, the concept of asymmetric warfare remains undefined or ill-defined until today, resulting in a proliferation of its use and limiting its value. Hence, restraint in the use of the term is necessary, in order to reinforce its analytical value and applicability. Defining asymmetric warfare as a conflict among opponents who are so different in their basic features that comparison of their military power is rendered impossible, is such an attempt to limit the term to a substantially new form of warfare, witnessed in a conflict that is often commonly called the Global War on Terrorism. The past two years, since the upsurge of the so-called Islamic State to the forefront of the salafi jihadi movement, have witnessed a significant change in this war. Superficial analysis could lead to the conclusion that the proclamation of the Islamic Caliphate on the territories of Iraq and Syria (for now) seems to have recalibrated this conflict into traditional inter- state war again, making the concept of asymmetric warfare obsolete and diminishing it into just a short-term aberration in the history of warfare. Nothing could be further from the truth. The enemy in the Global War on Terrorism was and remains a global and territorially unrestricted ideological movement whose numbers cannot even be estimated, which fights its battles wherever it chooses to, and whose ultimate goal is the annihilation of the international system of sovereign states, not the creation of a new state within this system. The Islamic Caliphate in its current boundaries is nothing more than the “model Islamic state”, as envisioned by Osama bin Laden in his 1996 fatwa as part of Al Qaeda’s 200 year plan for the establishment of God’s Islamic World Order. This grand strategy is the guiding blueprint of the salafi jihad that is waged against the Westphalian state system in a war that is truly asymmetric. We have to adjust to this strategic asymmetry if we are to prevail in this struggle, fighting a long war against an indefinable enemy on battlefields that are still unknown.

Opis:
The aggression of the Russian Federation to Ukraine, which began in 2014 with the annexation of the Crimea, and then continued in a hybrid war in Donbas, in modern terms means a threat to the whole European security system that has witnessed the tragedy of Malaysian «Boeing» July 17, 2014, Russia’s attempts to retain power anti-people regime of B. al-Assad in Syria, and the constant provocative actions and statements of top government officials aggressor. Under these conditions the European security system, along with Ukraine under current conditions fell to be tested for strength. Because of the departure of the requirements of international law, rules and standards of democratic behavior on the international arena, the response of the European Union and Ukraine cannot be symmetrical and requires the use of operational and non-standard asymmetric strategy. Asymmetric strategy means constant, active pressure on the system «vulnerabilities» of the enemy, the ability to organize their activities and think a great opponent so as to maximize their advantages and use its vulnerabilities, capture initiative or providing space for maneuvering. The defense strategy that Ukraine has to use, designed to minimize the negative effects on the actions of a dangerous rival that has a significant advantage in power and uses its dominant position. Strategy asymmetric nature of the Europe means above all sanctions against the aggressor through which the European Union lifted its own authority. Induced sanctions issues gradually form the internal opposition to Putin’s regime in Russia itself. The important role in asymmetric strategy plays studying the risks to Europe’s hybrid policy. These risks include: the provocative policy of in some European countries; activity funds, cultural associations, think tanks, pro-European orientation, which includes actions aimed at preventing enlargement of the European Union, or even to its collapse; systemic support from the far-right and ultra-Russian political parties and movements (this applies primarily to France, Italy, Hungary). Equally important is the expansion of diplomatic means opposition to Russian aggression, including large-scale informing the world community about events in Ukraine and strategic partnership in the military-political sphere (USA, Poland, Baltic countries). Asymmetric steps Ukraine is most clearly manifested in the creation of a new National Security Strategy of Ukraine. In the context of the national strategy for Ukraine challenges are: the external dimension - the depletion of enemy involvement and promotion of international assistance, activation policy of partnership with NATO; in domestic terms - to achieve a situation of domination own political liberty in troubled regions, effective implementation of internal reforms, building a modern public administration system in compliance with democratic principles, human rights and freedoms, support for small and medium businesses, the fight against corruption, attracting foreign investment. Confronting the destructive influence of a powerful enemy should include: outreach to the population of the occupied territories; defamation of illegal armed formations; linguistic use of arms, especially language factor; the formation of moral and psychological stability of society to sabotage and terrorist acts. Information expansion neighboring state encourages Ukraine to develop effective ways of intensive use of media as a powerful resource in terms of opposition to aggression. So, in the short term asymmetric strategy of Ukraine and the European Union must be defensive, that is to minimize the negative effects on the actions of an opponent who has a significant advantage in military capability and imposes its will and interests. But already in the medium term asymmetric strategy should take the offensive character and return channel in international relations democratic order and European security, which includes: the inviolability of borders, building an effective energy security, preventing the use of force in resolving political problems; overcoming latent threats which include terrorism, transnational organized crime, illegal migration, cyber-attacks, separatism, global climate change, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and their means of delivery.

Opis:
The Caucasus region is still considered as one of the hottest geostrategic spot in the world politics and still inter-state war scenarios are most plausible and could be revoked into real scenario development at any moment. Even current example of Georgian and Russian relations is to be one of the evident of the occasion. As it is known, Georgia and Russia are still in formally in war, both de facto and de iure and only a truce between the parties named as „Saakashvili-Medvedev-Sarkozi” treaty is indicating a fragile peace in the region. Hence, the consequences of the warfare waged in August of 2008 are being echoed in contemporary period of time. However, from the geostrategic point of view, only the fights between Georgian and Russian Armed Forces are being reviewed and analyzed but no one paid attention to and scrutinized combat operations between Georgian and Ossetian military formations scrutinizing, whereas both sides perceived territorial defence forces as one of the serious strike units at the initial stage of the conflict on 3-9 August of 2008 which was falling within the scope of Low Intensity Conflict. The operations could be analyzed on how the parties were using this kind of active reserve military formations, how efficient had been both territorial defence systems before the war and how it reflected the situations developed after the war. The comparative analyses of the engaged parties’ capabilities with regard to territorial defence strategies and properly used tactical reserve forces are very important and omnipotent to relevantly consider possibility and opportunity to achieve peace and stability at the regional level and reinforce regional security provisions.

Punktem wyjścia do rozważań zaprezentowanych w niniejszym artykule jest pytanie, dlaczego coraz częściej w różnych typach konfliktów (lokalnych czy państwowych) przewagę zyskują słabi aktorzy. Autorka artykułu wskazuje najważniejsze czynniki, które przyczyniają się do takiego stanu rzeczy. Jej zdaniem próba odpowiedzi na pytanie postawione na początku artykułu musi z konieczności zawierać analizę przekształceń wpisujących się w paradygmat wojen czwartej generacji, do których doszło w obrębie struktur organizacyjnych ugrupowań ekstremistycznych i terrorystycznych pod wpływem rozwoju procesów globalizacyjnych i nowych technik komunikacyjnych. Istotą tych przekształceń jest decentralizacja, a jedną z jej konsekwencji jest współczesna taktyka swarmingu. Ta analiza stanowi treść niniejszego artykułu.
The question why in various types of conflicts (local and national) the advantage is gained by the weak actors is the basis for the deliberations presented in this article. The author shows the most important factors responsible for the occurrence of such state of affairs. In her opinion, the attempt to answer that question must necessarily contain the analysis of the characteristic for the fourth-generation warfare paradigm transformations that took place in organizational structures of the extremist and terrorist groups due to the development of globalisation processes and new communication technologies. Decentralisation is the essence of these transformations, and one of its consequences is the modern tactic of swarming. These analyses are the subject of this article.

Opis:
The present analysis of military operations carried out by Tatar Hordes in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries has shown that these operations were basically shaped by asymmetric actions. Their main characteristics were secrecy of action up to the moment of attack, use of information-and-intelligence warfare struggle instruments, a total character of operations taken against civilians, their material resources and economic infrastructure, with use of terrorist tactics and means of psychological impact that aimed at intimidating the community under attack. The actions of Tatar Hordes were primarily focused on non-military aspects and took advantage not only of classic military tools but also a combination of political measures and instruments as well as those typical of economy, these including a variety of economic and demographic pressures. Pursuing asymmetric action was in the hands of the Giray (Gerey) dynasty one of the most important tools enabling them to efficiently achieve their political goals in the international arena and to support the economic development of the Crimean Khanate through permanent transfers of slaves and tangible property of various sorts.

Jeden z rodzajów broni stosowanych w asymetrycznych konfliktach zbrojnych jest oparty na demografii – broń D. Rola broni D jest wciąż niedoceniona mimo jej zróżnicowanego znaczenia w obecnych i przyszłych konfliktach.
In the contemporary world asymmetric threats play a growing role in armed conflicts. This makes blurring the borders between war and not-war as well as combatant and not-combatant, weapon and political tools.

Opis:
Asymmetry of warfare, or more often asymmetric warfare, is an issue often referred to in descriptions of contemporary political and military relations affecting the state. It is even presented as an entity threatened by these hostilities. Meanwhile, these acts are a form of an armed conflict in which opposing sides have different military potentials. One of the potentials is the power of the state. We must wonder then how the state uses it. Is it not an entity who uses it in a way disproportionate to the situation of conflict? The paper argues that a contemporary state is not without sin and it is not just that it is not able to protect its interests from asymmetric threats. Warfare still is, which many forget, the basis for hostilities (war). In the author’s understanding (erroneous perhaps?) asymmetry does not only occur at the level of war, but it also happens in its key dimension – warfare. It has emerged not only through the change in the status of the fighting party, but also through the time of warfare and using the warfare terrain.

Globalisation is a phenomenon which influences every aspect of contemporary life. Neo- liberal ideas lead to the multifunctional interdependence of geopolitics, the political economy, international relations, security, and defence issues. In the globalised world, many issues can be raised: Where are the roots of modern conflict? Who are the stakeholders in international relations? What are the dominant forms of contemporary conflicts? Do the forms of collective security fulfill the legitimacy of objectivity? What are the new challenges for modern defence science? Through the multidisciplinary approach, based on academic literature, as well scholars research papers, this work aims to contribute to the clarifying a rational approach to modern defence science in the contemporary, global security environment.

Opis:
The aim of this article is to make a diagnosis of problems which Polish officers struggle with during their performance of command functions in asymmetrical combat operations. For the Western political culture, strategy and army, threatened of asymmetry, are very ,,inconvenient’’ because their instruments (methods) cannot be found in the Western established way of conducting war thus it is difficult to face them. The advantage of strength of military and technology are not a guarantee of quick win over weaker, but determined enemy who applies strategy of asymmetry. The aspects above insist on deep transformation of the conventional military not only from the tactical level but also structural, preliminary and mental. The empirical basis of this article are field researches among soldiers of The 12th Szczecin Mechanised Division, experienced in the asymmetrical campaigns. The author has conducted a qualitative analysis of the material collected, based on the interviews. Suggestions were formulated about the need to train Polish officers who perform command roles in assymetrical wars.
Głównym celem artykułu jest diagnoza problemów, z jakimi borykają się polscy oficerowie pełniący funkcje dowódcze w asymetrycznych operacjach bojowych. Dla zachodniej kultury politycznej, strategicznej i wojskowej zagrożenia asymetryczne są bardzo „niewygodne”, gdyż ich instrumenty (metody) nie znajdują odpowiednika w ugruntowanym przez Zachód sposobie prowadzenia wojny. Z tego powodu trudno jest stawić im czoła. Przewaga siły militarnej i technologii nie gwarantuje szybkiego zwycięstwa nad znacznie słabszym, ale bardzo zdeterminowanym przeciwnikiem stosującym strategię asymetrii. Powyższe czynniki wymuszają głęboką transformację konwencjonalnych sił zbrojnych nie tylko na poziomie taktycznym, ale również strukturalnym, przygotowawczym i mentalnym. Podstawę empiryczną artykułu stanowią badania terenowe przeprowadzone wśród żołnierzy 12. Szczecińskiej Dywizji Zmechanizowanej, posiadających doświadczenie w asymetrycznych działaniach wojennych. Autorka dokonuje analizy zebranego materiału o charakterze jakościowym (wywiadów) i formułuje sugestie odnośnie do potrzeb szkolenia polskich oficerów pełniących funkcje dowódcze w warunkach wojny asymetrycznej.

Opis:
Throughout history, changes in the character of war have always been difficult for contemporaries to identify and assess. The context of future conflicts and wars can help the nations to make sound decisions on designing the tasks and missions of future forces. This paper offers a view on the character of future conflicts, seeks to describe what Armed Forces are likely to experience in future conflicts in light of dynamic changes in current security environment, and provides recommendations on the areas with the shortfalls, which could be essential to their success. It assesses how we think about future war, drawing attention to its associated caveats, obstacles, and intellectual problems. The author focuses attention on the issues related the activities referred to as “hybrid”, and the possibility of using the Armed Forces’ potential in terms of identification and elimination of threats. The conclusion of the paper presents a clear picture of future generations of the soldiers based on the requirements predicted throughout the article.
