Doctrina și strategia națională – baza succesului națiunii

This article sheds light on the importance of both national doctrine and national (grand) strategy for increasing the national power of the state, and their significant role for the development of the country. It depicts the importance of setting up the national ideal, national interests and goals, as well as the accomplishment of the planned task with the dedicated means. National identity, national unity and participation in organizations such as EU and NATO are important for the development of the country’s strategic agenda. The national doctrine and strategy are long-term documents, enabling the society to have a good foundation for developing its strategic documents concerning the governance of the state and ensuring the prosperity of the nation. On the other hand, both strategic documents also have their restraining effect regarding the deterrence of desires for a sharp change of strategic interests and objectives of the nation.
