Summary/Abstract: Strategy and strategic culture influence everyday lives of soldier and military units, as well as the system of their preparation for combats.

The article explains the criteria of militarism, because those phenomena were typical for a history of some states. First and foremost, backed by the analysis of a dramatic development of the strategic culture of the US during the first decade of the 21st century, the article concludes and explains its core and importance for our contemporary world.
