Abstract

The article’s purpose is to indicate the hypothesis that non-governmental organisations, specialised in pro-defence and paramilitary activities, have untapped potential defence capabilities in Poland. Therefore, in order to validate the thesis, the article highlights the impact of non-governmental organisations that were operating in Poland between the two world wars and during the time of the Polish People’s Republic. Moreover, conclusions from the abovementioned subject matter are compared with the Estonian law concerning cooperation with defence NGOs within the Estonian defence system. Finally, the article provides conclusions on the Polish government’s financial support for the pro-defence and paramilitary non-governmental organisations and also evaluates existing legal provisions that are covered by such support.
