ABSTRACT
Since the end of 1989 defence policy of the Czechoslovakia and after its dissolution in 1993
defence policy of the Czech Republic has been permanently adapted to the challenges of
the new political reality and evolving strategic environment. Political reality reflected the
revolutionary shift in political system aiming at the development of modern democratic
state. Challenges coming out from the strategic environment could be characterised by its
growing dynamics, complexity, unpredictability and uncertainty. This article highlights
some of the remarkable achievements in this two and half decade lasting transitional
endeavours and underscores some of the most important lessons learned related to defence
policy formulation, defence strategy implementation, defence planning, defence resource
management and acquisition.
