    (Oficyna Wydawnicza AFM, 2012) Bieniek, Mieczysław; Bryk, Andrzej; Patalong, Piotr; Kręcikij, Janusz; Cziomer, Erhard; Skulimowski, Mariusz; Mazur, Sławomir; Ostrowska, Monika; Bieniek, Mieczysław; Mazur, Sławomir
    “National and International Security in Contemporary Changing Reality” is a compelling, must-read work for those who study and try to gain a better understanding of today’s national and international security environment. A collection of diverse views of Polish and international authors on military, security, international relations, new forms of warfare such as cyber-terrorism and challenges they bring about allows the reader not only to see the whole complexity and interdependencies of the current security network, but creates a solid foundation for any further studies, especially for those readers who wish to obtain a better understanding of the Polish and other former Warsaw Pact countries’ perspective on the current and future role of international organizations such as NATO and the EU. While discussing security and defense from many different angles, authors – whose backgrounds are diverse and who jointly represent a vast and profound experience in defense-related matters – invite the reader to embark on a fascinating journey through the modern world of multifaceted security relations, links among sometime remote areas of defence-related studies, and challenges that not only NATO and its members but all the nations of the modern world must face and live up to.

    On the state of Latin American states: approaching the bicentenary
    (Oficyna Wydawnicza AFM, 2009) Pietschmann, Horst; Graham, Lawrence S.; Lewis, Colin M.; Valdivieso, Patricio; Paleczny, Tadeusz; Posern-Zieliński, Aleksander; Stemplowski, Ryszard; Escudé, Carlos; Stemplowski, Ryszard
    What is the actual condition of the state in Latin America? Each contributor to this volume has been invited to answer this question by writing an interpretative essay from a specifically suggested angle: the origins of the state; government and society; economic growth; society and economy; nation-building; the indigenous population; political culture; international relations etc. It was the contributors’ decision which particular states to focus on in order to best illuminate the issues involved. Our main focus in the volume is on outlining some of the processes concerning the state now, two hundred years since the first declarations of independence. Along the way, we tackle both theoretical and normative issues. All the contributors to this volume share a long-cultivated multidisciplinary research interest in Latin America but the volume also reflects our disagreement on what we take the state to be as well as on the prevailing situation in Latin America. Each chapter reflects the views of its author all the way down to his choice of British or American English. As a result all chapters reflect the authors’ views on the contemporary state of the State in Latin America, as well as – why not say it – the authors’ identities. The book is aimed primarily at academics and students of the humanities and social sciences.
