Abstract: The author analyzes the role of the “shale revolution” in changes in the conditions and guarantees of energy security of the EU, including the aspect of direct infl uence, as related to the attempts of the direct transfer of the “shale revolution” from the USA to Europe. The author analyzes the key reasons for the success of such a revolution in the USA, and the need to replicate this conditions in order to achieve success. Taking Poland as an example, the author also shows that while the infl uence of this revolution may be limited for the EU as a whole, it may cause considerable changes in energy security of certain countries and regions. The author then shows why the decision to develop non-traditional sources of natural gas in Europe is politically determined, rather than based on economical reasons. Keywords: political science, energy, security, natural gas, slate, shale, European, non-traditional, sources, Poland. This article is unavailable for unregistered users.
