Summary/Abstract: The paper focusses on selected aspects of economic security of states in the open economy. The battle for dominance and security primarily takes place in the field of economics (regardless of temporary disraptions in this regard). Participation in distribution of benefits from international division of labour is analyzed from the perspective of export competitiveness, based on modern production factors. The export of products from the techno- and scienceintensive industries is also seen as a basis for intensifying the state’s participation in the dominant intra-industry model of international trade (including between highly developed EU countries). The economic security of the state is also analysed in the context of mamaging the financial and economic crisis in the world and in EU itself. In the context of the issues raised above, it is therefore important to answer the question about the challenges facing Poland in view of economic security in a globalized world. An attempt to answer the questions posed is presented at the end of the study, after a theoretical and empirical analysis of the abovementioned cases.
