When Hungary transformed to an all-volunteer force in 2004, most attention was given to the regular component and very little mention was made of reservists. The main goal of this study is to draw attention to the importance of, and the potential, in the reserve component using historical research to produce an overview of how the reserve component of the Hungarian Defence Forces has evolved since the end of the Cold War. Information was collected and analysed from the discussed time period and interpretations were made of the collected evidence through systematic methods appraising all available studies to synthesise the findings. Similarly to other countries in the region, more than a century of conscription and the Warsaw Pact legacy still haunts the Hungarian Defence Forces. Fortunately, Hungary’s NATO membership spearheaded the drive for qualitative change within the armed forces and more attention was paid to a volunteer reserve system. Hungary’s NATO membership has ushered in a new era of security guarantees and obligations which, among other things, brought with it the realisation that the time for qualitative change in the armed forces had come. Among other changes, an initial shift of emphasis towards a reserve system – followed by the adoption of the all-volunteer force model – made it clear that a new basis had to be provided upon which to address the reserve issue in Hungary.

Terrorism is, through the violence that characterizes it, one of the most serious threats to global order and civilization, making the security of the individual and society more fragile domestically and internationally. The fight against terrorism involves challenges for military forces targeting issues of legitimacy and legality in relation to the population of the area of operations and to the persons involved or supporting terrorist acts, responsibility to the principles of democracy, human dignity and fundamental human rights. The issue of participation of military structures in the fight against terrorism is not something new. What is new, however, is the prospect of conscious and mature approach to the risks and threats to which military forces are faced in the conflicts they are engaged.

Terroryzm, poprzez charakteryzującą go przemoc, jest jednym z najpoważniejszych zagrożeń dla współczesnej cywilizacji i globalnego porządku, czyni bezpieczeństwo jednostki i społeczeństwa bardziej wrażliwym zarówno w kraju, jak i na arenie międzynarodowej. Walka z terroryzmem wiąże się nie tylko z wyzwaniami dla sił zbrojnych zajmującymi się kwestiami związanymi z legitymizowaniem legalności w relacjach w stosunku do ludności z obszaru objętego operacją wojskową czy w odniesieniu do osób zaangażowanych lub wspierającymi akty terrorystyczne, ale także wiąże się z odpowiedzialnością za przestrzeganie zasad demokracji, godności człowieka i jego podstawowych praw. Kwestie związane z udziałem struktur wojskowych w walce z terroryzmem nie są niczym nowym. Nowością natomiast jest jednak perspektywa świadomego i dojrzałego podejścia do ryzyka i zagrożeń, z jakimi zmagają się siły zbrojne w konfliktach, w które są zaangażowane.

The paper presents a comparative analysis of two documents forming the political basis for the concept of civil-military cooperation (CIMIC) in the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation, namely NATO Military Policy on Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) and Civil-Military Interaction (CMI) no. MC 0411/2, approved on 5 May 2014, and its predecessor entitled NATO Military Policy on Civil-Military Co-operation (CIMIC) no. MC 0411/1, published on 6 July 2001. The analysis of the structure of both documents, their substance and thematic scope as well as their origin and background made it possible to identify the principal directions in the transformation of the CIMIC concept since its beginnings and to present its new elements, mainly the issue of civil-military interaction. The article discusses also the further anticipated directions of changes arising from the assumptions of the new NATO policy for CIMIC and CMI and the progress made so far in operationalising the strategic assumptions contained in MC 0411/2, including in particular the works on a new NATO doctrine concerning CIMIC and CMI.
