Abstrakt
As a process of broadening the security category, securitisation is used to draw attention
to urgent and existential threats that cannot be resolved through ordinary political decisions.
It presupposes the authorisation of extraordinary measures as long as they are
accepted by the “audience” (the elite or society as a whole). Due to the growing importance
of these processes, more and more objections and doubts have been formulated
towards the theory of securitisation regarding, inter alia, the morality of these processes,
including the intentions of securitising actors (just or unjust securitisation). This article
presents case studies on the Poland’s migration policy, in which securitisation movements
reinforced social mobilisation by referring to the category of security. The methodological
framework of the securitisation theory and the just securitisation theory have been
implemented. The presented results indicate that in the process of extending the security
category, it is important to study the intentions of securitising actors and the existential
dimension of the reported threats due to the power of influence and the effects of
securitisation measures.
