External financial security of the state

The aim of the following work is to analyse the external threats of economic security of a state. Polish economy was under deepened research, but one on the main advantages of the work are various international comparisons, both with developing countries (mainly East-Central Europe) as well as with highly developed ones. Main caesura includes years 2004-2015 and is dictated by the availability of comparable and complete statistics data, but in many cases longer period references were also done (as long as data allowed it).
