Bezpieczeństwo morskie państwa jako kategoria typologiczna bezpieczeństwa narodowego
Maritime State Safety as a Typological Category of National Security

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to present an original approach to the issue of maritime security modeling, which is commonly treated as one of the many categories dominant in the theory and practice of national security. Elements of the theory of security and its basic definitions are initially outlined. There was also a discussion on the endless problem of severability / identity of national security and state security. For the eponymous maritime security, the basic types of threats causing its destruction have been specified. Particular attention was paid to the multidimensionality of maritime security and the related typological divisions and legal and international consequences. The underlying rationale for considering maritime safety as an ambiguous concept with global and transboundary relevance has been outlined. It relates to the entire marine environment, which is a category common to all participants in international life. It defines the general conditions for the use of sea space and areas by various national, international, commercial, public and non-public entities – in accordance with certain rules respecting the security universe. The conclusion indicates the main entities and administrative bodies shaping the required safety standards in the national and international dimension. The main thesis of the work states that maritime security, as a generic category of national security, has a significant impact on many types of subject security, and thus on the general level of national security of each coastal state. In the era of globalization, the maritime security of these countries, along with economic, social, economic, information, energy and many other securities, is one of the key components of national security and state security.
