Numerous representatives of theories of international relations, security theories or alliance theories have examined the new role of the North Atlantic Alliance or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in the post-bipolar world. Parallel with the theoretical examination of goals and tasks, NATO has transformed itself in practice, following the realities of the contemporary global era. In trying to achieve and keep the primacy of the strongest military- political organization, the Alliance has - especially in the Strategic Concept adopted in Lisbon in 2010-set the normative and institutional foundations of its global engagement, fulfilling the military (hard) and a wide array of non-military (soft) security challenges. This strategy has given rise to "Euro-Atlanticism", as a subsystem of international relations based on strong American-European relations, to fit with the process of regionalization of global politics. However, the 2013-2014 crisis in Ukraine has turned the focus of interest and activities of NATO once again primarily to Europe and it has stressed the importance and necessity of strengthening Euro-Atlantic security and defence ties. The most powerful member of the Alliance, the United States, is again strongly engaged in Europe and Russia, as a kind of successor to the Soviet Union, is once more detected as a major threat to European security. There have been many aspects of theories of international relations that have tried to explain the dynamic of the post-Cold War international community. However, the approach based on neo-realistic assumptions of the role of a security community, collective defence and the use of military force has proved to be dominant. NATO will continue to work on its political dimension as an alliance of the democratic world and the September 2014 Wales Summit will certainly mark the return of NATO to its roots, strengthening its security and military dimensions in the collective defence of Europe from Russia.

W artykule zaprezentowano regionalny wymiar bułgarskiej polityki bezpieczeństwa. Dokonano tego w oparciu o nowopowstałą Inicjatywę Trójmorza. Zaprezentowano priorytety bułgarskiej polityki bezpieczeństwa w ramach tej inicjatywy, ale także w ramach integracji euroatlantyckiej. Przedstawiono szanse i zagrożenia, jakie stoją przed powołaną Inicjatywą Trójmorza, ukazano jej potencjał oraz zaangażowanie Bułgarii w realizację projektów Trójmorza. Celem artykułu było także udzielenie odpowiedzi na pytanie o to, jaką rolę i znaczenie ma powyższa inicjatywa dla polityki Bułgarii i jaką rolę odgrywa współpraca regionalna w polityce zagranicznej i polityce bezpieczeństwa współczesnej Bułgarii. Przeprowadzona analiza doprowadziła do wniosku, że główny kierunek w polityce stanowi integracja euroatlantycka. To w ramach tego priorytetu Bułgaria realizuje częściowo zadania związane z polityką regionalną. Współpraca regionalna jest intensyfikowana. Istnieje potencjał do lepszej współpracy w ramach Trójmorza.
