Publikacja przybliża problematykę koncepcji instytucji totalnej, której charakterystyki w badaniach podjął się Erving Goffman. Opracowanie ukazuje pewną dwoistość pojmowania tejże instytucji. Czym innym jest ona w rozumieniu jednostki wojskowej w kraju, a zgoła inną rolę pełni, funkcjonując jak baza wojskowa poza jego granicami. Rozważania swoje autorzy publikacji odnoszą do bazy ulokowanej w Ghazni w Afganistanie. Treści zamieszczone w artykule poparte są analizą literatury oraz obserwacją uczestniczącą, wynikającą z udziału w misji w czasie trwania XIII zmiany Polskiego Kontyngentu Wojskowego.

The publication introduces the concept of total institution which was undertaken by Erving Goffman as part of his studies. He reveals a duality in the understanding of this institution. Something else, that is, when it comes to a military unit in the country and very different to a military base abroad. The authors’ considerations refer to the military base located in Ghazni in Afghanistan. The content of the paper is supported by analysis of the literature on the topic and participant observation, resulting from participation in the mission of the XIII Polish Military Contingent.

Zasadniczym celem niniejszego opracowania jest zwrócenie uwagi na niedoceniany i po-mijany aspekt związany z wielokulturowością i komunikacją międzykulturową w procesie przygotowania kontyngentów misji pokojowych. Konflikty lokalne bardzo często poprzedzone są antagonizmem stron i narastającą sprzecznością interesów, co nieuchronnie prowadzi do wybuchu walk między kulturami o terytorium, rywalizację polityczną, zasoby ekonomiczne – sformułowane przez znawców tej tematyki wnioski wskazują jednoznacznie, że ich odmienność nie zmierza do rywalizacji i konfrontacji, a tylko do uzasadnienia przyczyn konfliktów, które to autor zobrazował na przykładzie Kosowa.

The main purpose of this article is to focus on multiculturalism and cross-cultural communication in the preparation of military contingents for peace support operations, aspects which are often omitted and underestimated in this process. Local conflicts, preceded by antagonisms and increasing conflicts of interests, which inevitably leads to fighting, are fought between cultures over territory, political rivalry or economic resources. The conclusions formulated by the experts of this subject matter explicitly show that their otherness does not aim at rivalry and confrontation, but only at the justification of the reasons for conflicts, which the author would like to illustrate using the example of Kosovo.

Poland, according to alliance commitments, should be ready to participate with its forces in crisis response operations, including peace support operations. It is estimated that in these operations may be involved, among others, land tasks forces in strength of ½ strengthened mechanized brigade or battalion task forces created from motorized infantry battalion. Military contingents’ participation in response operations, including peace support operations is an expensive undertaking. Particularly high costs are spent on the functioning of their logistics systems. Therefore the problem of finding solutions conducive to reducing these costs has become particularly important. These costs, called logistics costs can be lowered, among others, by optimizing the logistics needs of sub-units and units comprising the military contingents and rationalization of operations as well as organizational and organizational-logistic factors that determine material, technical medical and transport potentials of these contingents. In addition, the multinational composition of the military forces conducting peace support operations means that national contingents should have a high degree of logistics interoperability which allows, in the process of troops logistic support, the use of, usually less expensive than conventional, multi-national logistics solutions. The article contains the authors’ proposals promoting the reduction of logistics costs associated with the participation of Polish military contingents in peace support operations.

The article deals with problems of the armed forces’ participation in carrying out Poland’s national interests through the participation in crisis response operations outside the country in the light of forecasted changes in the international security system in the first quarter of the 21st century. Its aim is to show the growing importance of the armed forces’ mobility issue, i.e. the capability to deploy selected components on great distances, as well as their rotation and supply capabilities. The problem of effective acquisition of proper strategic transport means and their optimal use is presented. The leading role of international transport in operations outside the country where Polish armed forces participate is exposed. The mentioned above role is described as the time and space structures transformation (the unit’s state of readiness to transport, the date of supplying assets into the area of operation, the place of loading, the place of assets’ delivery) and their adaptation to the Armed Forces’ operational requirements. The article also takes into consideration the organisational culture of the forces’ deployment both in the strategic planning context and the implementation of deployment strategic options in armed forces’ operations.

The aim of the article is to present expenditures incurred by Poland in connection with maintaining Polish Military Contingents (PMC) outside the country after 2002. The first part of the article features Poland’s engagement in peace missions until 2001. The second one defines Poland’s involvement to preserve peace in the world since 2002. The costs of keeping PMC outside the country were presented in a table and supplemented with commentary. These expenditures were compared with GDP and defence budget. The analysis shows that the highest costs are generated by big contingents such as Polish Military Contingent in Iraq, Chad and Afghanistan. For instance, the costs of maintaining the Polish Military Contingent in Iraq amounted to 1,046.19 million PLN. It appears that these are only costs that the Polish side incurred and they make about 40% of the whole costs as the rest was financed by the USA budget. The MoD spent on the currently operating contingent in Afghanistan approximately 785.2 million PLN from its 2009 budget, which makes 75.8% of all expenditures on missions in that year. It must be remembered that the costs resulting from PMC’s participation in operations/missions outside the country would have been incurred anyhow, for example due to the necessity to organize and conduct exercises with forces within annual force training schedule. The PMC participation in this type of operations is also a factor influencing the modernization of the army and stimulating our domestic defence industry.

Prawidłowe i terminowe zaspokojenie potrzeb logistycznych polskich kontyngentów wojskowych stanowi duże wyzwanie dla służb logistycznych Sił Zbrojnych Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej. Podstawowe źródło ich pokrycia stanowią dostawy z kraju oraz towary i usługi pozyskiwane w ramach umów międzynarodowych. Dodatkowo, w zaleSności od potencjału gospodarek lokalnych, wykorzystuje się miejscowych przedsiębiorców, którzy stanowią uzupełnienie całości tego procesu. W artykule scharakteryzowane zostało wykorzystanie rynków lokalnych w zabezpieczeniu logistycznym polskich kontyngentów wojskowych w odniesieniu do aktualnie prowadzonych misji poza granicami kraju.

To correctly and timely meet the logistic needs of Polish military contingents constitutes a big challenge for the logistic services of the Polish Armed Forces. These needs are satisfied with supplies from the country and the goods and services acquired under international agreements. In addition, depending on the potential of local economies, local entrepreneurs are contracted, which complements the whole process. The aim of this article is to show how to use local markets in the logistic support of Polish military contingents with reference to current overseas missions.

NATO crisis response operations (operations outside Article 5 of the Washington Treaty) include: peace support operations, evacuation operations, support operations in natural disasters and humanitarian aid, search and rescue operations, operations with the use of military force or the demonstration of its use. They can be carried out by NATO, the European Union and the United Nations. The military strategy of Poland (2004) imposes the obligation to have expeditionary forces capable of taking action in crisis response operations outside the country. Therefore, it is clear that the solutions for the efficient organization of these forces ’ logistic support are also necessary. The level of support must be appropriate to today's standards, but on acceptable level of costs. Logistics support of Polish Military Contingents (PMC) in crisis response operations outside the country include: materials support (supply delivery, economic and living services and other services), technical support (equipment maintenance, repair of armament and military equipment, supply of technical materials, technical supervision, metrology support and other) as well as transport provision (in relation country - PMC and in area of operations). In addition, under the logistics support there are also implemented other projects such as e.g. the liquidation of loss and damage, funeral services, etc. Determinants of PMC logistics support in emergency response operations are the following: the nature of conducted operation and its level of intensity, size (composition) and the armament and military equipment; area, including the local logistics conditions and remoteness from the home country, the composition of international coalition conducting the mission and scope of a multinational logistics operation; specialization and the logistics role of PMC in the composition of multinational logistics; time (period) of mission and other conditions.

Material support effective functioning is one of the most difficult tasks during combat service support of Polish military contingents conducting peace and stabilization missions outside the country. The tasks include a wide range of logistic services requiring careful planning, making numerous arrangements and signing contracts. The participation of the Polish Armed Forces' military contingents in operations outside the country determines a new concept quality of forces' material support taking into consideration using national and multinational logistic potential. The plans of forces' combat service support in operations of a different character, often conducted in completely different environments, are mainly dependent on the possibilities to gain logistic resources and services in the areas of planned operations and the national logistics possibilities in the context of : flexible selection of means and assets adequate to the aim of the operation ; management of material resources that the forces have at their disposal ; maintaining the size of material potential necessary to achieve assumed goals, often in long period of operation. Presented in the article material support problems of Polish Armed Forces contingents on the background of their contemporary operational activities result from modern output of Polish military defensive and economic thought that solves basic problems and from the tendency to achieve by the Polish Forces required standard and interoperability levels with NATO armies logistics.

The article presents the problems of logistic support of troops participating in stabilisation operations taking into consideration conditions to reach interoperability with NATO armies and changes occurring in the theory of conducting operations. Multinational character of troops taking part in a stabilisation operation (e.g. 22 countries in “Iraqi Freedom”) and consequently a low level of their interoperability causes that the organisation of logistic support of troops participating in it is and probably will long be very complicated. It is forecast that the higher standardisation of the Polish Land Forces with other NATO armies (mainly achieving the level of compatibility and interoperability), the fewer problems connected with their logistic support. The article also describes new phenomena and tendencies resulting from creating multinational divisions and corps, the functioning of multinational logistics and the necessity of taking over tasks by one country that result from a host country function in case of carrying out stabilisation activities outside the Alliance territory.

Poland's entering NATO structures created many new problems also in the financial economy. The solution to these problems is found in generally binding laws (Finance Minister’s regulations). The article contains a financial economy introductory analysis of organisational units that are deployed abroad (military representatives, liaison officers and soldiers who serve directly in NATO structures and also peace and stabilising forces contingents). Institutions responsible for present organisational and legal developments have been pointed out. The state of financial economy deserts from developments included in the Finance Minister’s instructions. The article presents new directions of solutions that in the author’s opinion improve the existing system. First of all, they concern the change of organisational subordination of units that co-ordinate functioning of units deployed abroad.
