Strategic conditions of using the armed forces of the Federal Republic of Germany in the period 1955‑1989
The aim of the article is to determine the strategic conditions of use of the armed forces of West Germany (the Bundeswehr) since its inception in 1955 until its unification with the National People’s Army (1989/1990). In the first part the features of the security environment in Germany have been shown and the main political, military and economic threats identified. As the result of the presented strategic analysis of the state environment as well as the parallel description ofthe set of values, interests and political goals in the security field, the conceptions of using the Bundeswehr as the army of the national state and a member of the NATO have been characterized.
