Ethical traditions of the Polish police are directly related to the history of this uniformed service. Starting from the interwar period until the present day, with the exception of the communist times when the State Police was replaced by the Citizen’s Militia, ethics has played an important role in the work of law enforcers. It provides basic principles, resulting from universal moral values, without which it is impossible to serve society and the homeland responsibly. The specificity of the professional ethics of this uniformed agency is directly related to its service-oriented character, based on intensive and often difficult interpersonal contacts. The present times witness the emergence of new challenges in the area of good standards of police ethics. In order to better recognize the ethical standards and see their importance in the work of the Polish police, it is worth referring to the standards of the State Police. They were a kind of quintessence of police officers’ moral and professional duties. They were based on such values as: God, Homeland, honour, truth, conscientiousness, responsibility, justice, reticence in speech, friendliness and obedience to the orders of superiors. These values are timeless and still topical, even in our modern times. Resignation from the above mentioned values may result in police officers pretending to respect ethical principles in their work, which was evident in the activities of the Citizen’s Militia. Therefore, the above fully justifies police efforts undertaken after 1990, which are expressed not only as concern for reliably developed legal regulations and operational directives to be followed while performing official duties, but also as compliance with the principles of police ethics, which are based on universal values (including the protection of human life and health, respect for human dignity, truth, responsibility and patriotism). This goal is to be achieved both through education on basic training and specialist courses, as well as thanks to police priests’ work.

The subject of the article was raised in response to the research gap in the area of ethical views and attitudes of academic youth. The problem was considered important due to the growing role of ethics in business and the consequent need to focus on ethics at every stage of economic education. The characteristics obtained thanks to the empirical study (in the form of a survey conducted among first-year students at SGH Warsaw School of Economics) may contribute to documenting the state of ethical awareness of students at an economic university at the initial stage of economic education and additionally in the initial period of a crisis caused by COVID-19. The research brings a double cognitive value. On the one hand, it presents the generalized "ethical" characteristics of student youth in the initial stage of academic education, including the original radar of the student's perception of the importance of ethical values in defining an ideal ethical attitude in business, compatible with the Tool-kit for Ethics Self-Assessment, available at esa.sgh.waw.pl. On the other hand - after applying the observations to the ground of shaping academic curricula - some suggestions relating to ethics can be derived, which should not be overlooked in the work on study programs.
