On February 24, 2023, one year has passed since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. It is worth recalling that in the aftermath of the Russian military aggression against Ukraine, the EU member states set themselves the aim to reduce or completely eliminate the import of energy resources from Russia. These actions are aimed at weakening...
Minął rok od brutalnej napaści zbrojnej Federacji Rosyjskiej na Ukrainę. Rosyjska agresja była ciosem w chwiejący się liberalny porządek międzynarodowy łączony z uniwersalnymi – jak się wydawało – wartościami i zasadami, takimi jak praworządność, suwerenność, pokój czy współpraca. Była również brutalnym aktem podważenia zrębów pozimnowojennego syst...
The energy sector of many European countries, including Poland, has been destabilized in recent months. This is a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic and the ongoing war in Ukraine.

the Polish energy sector requires a complete modernization, especially in terms
of electricity supply. The curre...
The war in Ukraine, which has been going on for nearly three months, has multidimensional consequences, not only for the parties to the conflict. Considering the significant dependence of some European countries on Russian energy resources, a serious problem arises with regard to their energy security. Unfortunately, it was only war crimes and crim...
The Russian aggression against Ukraine has stimulated the debate on energy security of European countries. It is no secret that most of them have limited resources of strategic energy resources, such as crude oil, natural gas or coal. For this reason, they are forced to import them from various directions. For several decades, one of the most impor...
During the last few weeks , we have witnessed events which given the experiences of the Europeans throughout the 20th century appear unimaginable or just senseless.

Bezpieczeństwo energetyczne stało się kluczową kwestią w ostatnich latach, nie tylko dla Polski, ale też innych państw Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej. Polska energetyka wymaga dynamicznej modernizacji, co jest konsekwencją istnienia przestarzałej technologii opartej w głównej mierze na węglu (ok. 50-60% w miksie energetycznym). Transformacja energetycz...
The breakup of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia 30 years ago still has a substantial impact on the post-Yugoslav countries which proclaimed independence. Bearing in mind that the breakup also generated a military conflict, e.g. in Croatia, the restoration of Serbian-Croatian relations remains problematic. One of the challenges is passin...

The project entitled “Decarbonization of the energy sector in Poland - a threat or an opportunity for Poland’s security?” is an attempt to answer the question of how decarbonization is executed and whether the process presents any threats for the energy sector. Currently, Polish energy sector is facing a difficult challenge - dynamic redevelopment towards cleaner and safer energy. Eliminating the coal or reducing its consumption is highly desirable (especially bearing in mind the EU strategy to be climate-neutral by 2050) however, from the economic and social point of view, it might pose a threat to the energy stability of the state. Polish energy sector is still dominated by the high consumption of coal in the production of electricity which presents a danger to the natural environment. This is one of the reasons why a shift towards cleaner energy is so welcome and this is also what decarbonization is needed for - it is a process which aims to reduce (or eliminate) the emission of greenhouse gases. The main aim of the project is to create theoretical and actual models of decarbonization of Poland’s energy sector. The models are supposed to focus on legal, technical/technological and political aspects. Such an approach will help in understanding the changes in the Polish energy sector and will gather information about legal, technical and political possibilities of decarbonization in Poland. The results of the project will form a benchmark for further research into Polish decarbonization.
The project subject are Serbian-Croatian political relations, mainly after 1991. In the author's opinion, the 1990s and the first decade of the XXI century are three different periods in Serbian and Croatian politics. The first stage from 1991 to 1995 was a period of civil war in Yugoslavia, broken relationships, and political hostility. Next from 1996 to 2000 was a period of conflict deceleration, limited relationships, and political animosity. The third from 2001-2015 was a period of political and economic transformation, attemp at rebuilding relationships, and political neutrality. The political events that took place in the specified periods are influential in shaping the modern Serbian-Croatian relations. An explanation of the outlined phenomenon is a fundamental objective of the undertaken project.
