Summary/Abstract: Experience and solutions of the French Republic, where anti-terrorist structures are constantly developed, should be a signpost for other countries. Creation of unique deradicalization programs and conducting a policy of responding to cases of extremism are actions that can be implemented in Poland. In addition, the use of social media to combat terrorist content and to provide information about threats shows the innovative use of the Internet. It is also worth noting the involvement of French municipal guards and medical services in the process of responding to terrorism, as well as highlighting the role of NGOs working to support victims. Decades of France’s struggle with different types of terrorism have meant that methods that would be effective in countering radicalisation and threats have been improved and reviewed over the years. In the author’s opinion, it would be advisable to take advantage of the French experience and implement at least some of the solutions in Poland.
