Abstract

Purpose: The main of this article is to present a model of the culture of global ecological security policy that allows for the assessment of the ecological security of each country based on the development of its cities. Design/Methodology/Approach: The question was asked whether the difficulties in modeling the ecological security of the state are a consequence of limitations in the coherence of four dogmas: ecological security, sustainable development, social responsibility and environmental management. The model was developed after conducting an archival search of literature and management practices on the example of 18 regional cities in Poland. It was assumed that the properties of environmental aspects of cities are a natural quantity influencing the ecological safety of these cities and therefore of each country in the contemporary global civilization system. The research view provided a synthetic picture of regional cities studied in an "isolated" way in the context of the organizational maturity of city development in micro-communities for which regional city development policies were adopted. The multi-criteria method allowed us to identify and describe these micro-collections in order to map the macroscopic observation of the development of regional cities emerging from the entire development of the country. This method also allowed us to determine the level of maturity of implementation and respect for the four doctrines in the development of cities, i.e.: ecological safety, social responsibility, sustainable development and environmental management. The research structure is based on the organizational coherence of these doctrines and represents holistic realism, which enabled the use of a synthetic research approach "from specific to general". Findings: A synthetic approach to the theory and practice of state development, regional cities and development doctrines allowed for an assessment of the maturity of the coupling of doctrines in all areas of regional city development. The study was inductive and empathetic, therefore it indicated how to improve the maturity of the state management process. The model emphasizes the importance of adopting best development practices, using eco-innovative public services and supporting the involvement of city stakeholders in order to increase the organizational culture of the country's ecological safety. I have developed 13 catalogues of elements of the structure of the development strategy of regional cities in Poland, containing 1 390 public services. Practical implications: The model is needed to improve the diagnosis of administrative decisions and the selection of intervention investments with positive environmental aspects. The model can be used to develop a diagnosis of the development of each city, update the strategy of urban development and analyze social conclusions from the point of view of the environmental aspects of the entire country. The environmental aspects of the state and its cities are still not identified. Originality/Value: This means that the model creates necessary and sufficient boundaries of the state's development, optimizes the state management process, emphasizes the role of the authorities in achieving development efficiency, i.e. in reducing external costs by optimizing the environmental aspects of the state.
