The primacy of civilian authority over the military, and police and special forces is one of the standards of constitutional democracies. The principle of the division of power vests the legislative, executive, and judiciary with various control mechanisms towards the agency in question. Together, they provide a system whose assumption is to provide efficient civilian and democratic control over the ABW and other special forces. That is why the article presents a list of institutional and legal solutions pertaining to the control exercised by the legislative, executive, and judicial powers, and discusses them together with selected so-called organs of law protection and control.plUznanie autorstwa-Użycie niekomercyjne-Bez utworów zależnych 3.0 PolskaAgencja Bezpieczeństwa Wewnętrznego (ABW)służby specjalnekontrola parlamentarnaSejmowa Komisja do Spraw Służb Specjalnych (SKSS)Bezpieczeństwo narodowe i wewnętrznePrawoArtykuł
