The civil control of the armed forces plays a more and more important role in Poland, especially after 1980. Nowadays, it constitutes a new paradigm of national and international security since it is a basic condition for membership in NATO and the factor of political-to-military democracy relations. According to the author, the issue of the civil control of the armed forces has a great importance for the cognitive and praxeological aspect of two essential questions: "How deeply should the civil control penetrate the army?” as well as “What instruments, procedures, influences and prestige are essential to achieve full control of the armed forces?” The author points out that the basic pillars of the civil control of the army are: the modern management system of the state, the ways of wielding the power by the Prime Minister and Defense Minister as well as the range of legislative, judiciary bodies’ power. Military professionalism in the democratic army should be based first of all on high professional competencies, experience, and considerable achievements in the military service, loyalty towards the nation and state and ethic principles. According to K. Pepper, we are all responsible for making the open future better than the present day.
