“…It was established that the positive example of Belgium indicates the need to implement constant tracking and use of advanced technologies in the field of cyberspace. Socialization, education and training of young people to ensure national security is becoming extremely important (Urych and Matyasik, 2022). Countries need to increase their spending on developing infrastructure such as firewalls and developing cybersecurity talent (Hung, 2022).…”

The objective of the article was to identify new threats to the national security of countries and, at the same time, to determine the adaptation tasks related to their identification. The synergistic approach, comparative legal analysis methods and foresight were the main tools of this research. Manipulation actions involving deep forgeries are spreading rapidly. Autonomous weapons with artificial intelligence are used to create negative fake events. Criminal use of users’ smart devices to create a unique behavioural profile has been detected. New cyber threats to Ukraine’s national security during the military conflict are characterized by attempts to disrupt critical infrastructure. It is concluded that “cyber looting” has emerged with the use of social engineering methods. The activities of the Belgian Center for Cyber Security (CCB) are a positive example of the identification of new cyber threats in the countries of the European Union EU. Furthermore, CCB performs activities related to the identification, monitoring and analysis of online security issues. Coordination between relevant services and agencies, public authorities, private sector and academia is ensured.

“…Researchers of pro-defence organisations point to several important issues concerning this area. They are important in a broad context, taking into account many countries and international organizations (Urych, Matysiak 2022). Based on many years of experience and the best military tradition in Poland, they most certainly have great potential and are often highly specialised, (Staśkiewicz 2022;Zadorożna 2018).…”

The article aims to analyse the motivation and perception of security among the members of pro-defence organisations in Poland. The multidimensionality of threats and challenges in the area of national and international security necessitates the use of all forces and means. This also applies to using the potential, interest, and involvement of specific people within the state security system. In the case of Poland, a large role is played by numerous pro-defence organisations with many members, including young people. In the last few years, a large number of events with a direct impact on the sense of national and international security have occurred. This article attempts to perform a comparative analysis by considering the perspectives in 2018 and in 2022, which are based on an original survey of a selected group of respondents.

“…There are many variations of this phenomenon. Baltic states have unique forms of patriotic education in school settings: in Estonia, for example, an elective course on national defense is available in secondary schools (Estonian Ministry of Defense 2019), and in Latvia, "national defense training" will become compulsory in secondary schools in 2024 (Urych and Matysiak 2022). In Russia, military-patriotic education takes place in a revived and institutionalized form in organizations such as Yunarmiya and serves clear chauvinist-nationalist ends.…”

How do political communities stick together as polities in times of crisis? What is needed to motivate their citizens work together to deter threats, maintain state monopolies of violence, and sustain different forms of military alliances and cooperation? The answer, in large part, is patriotism. Patriotic thinking—both as a sentiment and as an element of political ideology—is a central tenet in building states and conducting state affairs. From the perspective of political philosophy, patriotism is often characterized as love for one’s country and as an affective relationship imbued with such emotions as pride, honor, and appreciation for the collective that it represents. Scholars from the tradition of republican patriotism argue that such love may be directed toward political institutions and that it helps form a way of life that sustains the liberty of a state’s population. This stands in contrast to nationalism, which regards thesame object of veneration, the homeland, with less tolerance of heterogeneity and political disunion. Both patriotism and nationalism are conceptualized in a variety of ways and can take on meanings as varied as benign civic unity and exclusionary chauvinism. Patriotism is often conceptualized as a form of civic virtue, stressing the way it prioritizes the community ahead of the individual.
