  • Bringing defence back home

    Open Access•Weronika Grzebalska, Bettina Bruns•ARTICLE•Journal of Contemporary European…•2026

    This article examines how Poland and Germany, despite implementing structurally similar reforms in response to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, articulate divergent cultural understandings of defence and security. Using the concept of security imaginaries – the shared meanings through which societies interpret international security – we compare two formations central to the return of territorial defence: Poland’s Territorial Defence Forc…

  • Between Citizen-Soldiers and Anomic Pacifists

    Open Access•Weronika Grzebalska, Pavol Kosnáč•ARTICLE•Armed Forces & Society•2025•Cited by: 1•References: 36

    Following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Visegrad Group (V4) began shifting defense policy toward the comprehensive approach involving the state and society alongside the military. Extensively analyzed in security studies, this shift is less discussed in military and society research. Interrogating mixed data through the exploratory concept of "societal relationship with defense," the paper provides the first comparative analysis of ho…

  • Regendering defence through a national-conservative platform? The case of Polish paramilitary organizing

    Weronika Grzebalska•ARTICLE•Critical Military Studies•2023•Cited by: 3•References: 32

    Following the war in Ukraine and other security challenges of non-military nature, Poland has recorded novel processes of re-militarization, with the resurgence of volunteer paramilitary organizing constituting one potent example. In the otherwise gender blind public discourse on defence developments, the latter were incidentally narrated as intrinsically entangled with patriarchal gender relations and illiberal ‘anti-gender’ politics, reflecting…

  • Gender Politics of “Illiberal Pragmatics” in the Polish Defense Sector

    Open Access•Weronika Grzebalska•ARTICLE•Politics and Governance•2022•Cited by: 1•References: 18

    Since 2015, the illiberal Law and Justice (Prawo i Sprawiedliwość [PiS]) government in Poland has engaged in campaigns against “gender ideology,” rolling back several equality mechanisms and provisions, and mainstreaming traditionalist values into state policy. Following from this, scholarship has predominantly addressed PiS gender politics through the concepts of anti-gender backlash and gender backsliding. Against this background, Polish defens…
