Let us not concern ourselves with speculations whether Jerzy Giedroyć, when he founded the Literary Institute in 1947 and soon afterwards published the first issue of “Kultura”, already suspected that his two creations (especially the magazine) would play such an important role in shaping political ideas of Polish exiles and become his true magnum opus. The fact remains that in spite of its distance from the centers of Polish immigration, the government in exile, and the large Polish immigrant community, the new monthly, while still looking for new contributors and readers, and remaining in opposition to Mieczysław Grydzewski’s “Wiadomości” - which sought to cultivate pre-war traditions - quickly achieved the unquestionable status of a platform for free speech, a forum for the bold exchange of views (these o en being unpopular and going against the drift of Polish public opinion in the West), and a leading channel of communication with the homeland. Even though the subtitle (Sketches. Short Stories. Reports) hinted at the editorial staff ’s interest in literature, “Kultura” from day one tackled difficult geopolitical and political problems arising from the situation in post-war Europe. Its publications were characterized by topicality and realistic assessments, which can be clearly seen while studying consecutive annual sets, for example with regard to the process of European unification.

Despite the fact that the classical concept of geopolitics was first formed by Rudolf Kjellén in the early 20th century, modern experts in international relations still discuss the feasibility and relevance of these classical methods in today’s conditions. The academic debate revolves around new methods of geopolitical struggle in the foreign policy of the states in the international arena. Geographical features take a back seat, and economic, military, technological and informational factors come to the fore. The article’s aim is to analyse the impact of geopolitical competition of world leaders during the COVID-19 crisis. The author demonstrates the tendency of aggravation of geopolitical competition between the so-called Collective West and Chinese–Russian alliance. The degree of intensity of geopolitical competition poses a threat to the security and stability of the EU. To discuss the geopolitical competition, it is proposed to include the following issues: the main actors of geopolitical competition, the key methods of this competitiveness and their evolution under the coronavirus pandemic.

Pomimo tego, że klasyczna koncepcja geopolityki została po raz pierwszy sformułowane przez Rudolfa Kjelléna na początku XX wieku, współcześni eksperci stosunków międzynarodowych wciąż dyskutują o relewantności jej pierwotnych założeń w dzisiejszych warunkach. Dyskusja akademicka toczy się wokół nowych metod geopolitycznej rywalizacji aktorów na arenie międzynarodowej. Czynniki geograficzne schodzą w niej na dalszy plan, podczas gdy na pierwszy wysuwają się czynniki ekonomiczne, militarne, technologiczne i informacyjne. Celem artykułu jest analiza wpływu geopolitycznej rywalizacji globalnych liderów podczas kryzysu COVID-19. W tekście przedstawiono tendencję do zaostrzania się konkurencji geopolitycznej między Zachodem a sojuszem chińsko-rosyjskim. Stopień nasilenia rywalizacji geopolitycznej stwarza zagrożenie dla bezpieczeństwu i stabilności UE. Rozważania dotyczące rywalizacji geopolitycznej powinny dotyczyć następujących zagadnień: jej głównych aktorów, kluczowych metod tej rywalizacji oraz ich przemian w dobie pandemii koronawirusa.
