The publishing house and the University of Business and Entrepreneurship are located in Poland, Central Europe, hence a lot of space in the journal’s pages is concerned with security issues of the Baltic – Black Sea – Adriatic seas area. However, Central and Eastern Europe’s issues are not the only subject matters’, we aim to build an area for international security studies, connecting researchers and opinions from various countries and continents. Every second or third volume of Ante Portas – Security Studies is planned as a thematic one, concerned with the specific security issue, a specific region, or state of affairs. Our international Academic Council and Editorial Board, as well as the extensive base of reviewers, are the guarantee of the professional level of the published articles.
