Abstract: W. Stankiewicz, a trained soldier and economist, devoted most of his life to scientific work in three fields. The first one was the economics of war. W. Stankiewicz belonged to a small group of academics who refined the subject and set out the scope of research of this discipline. Moreover, contrary to his intentions, he also helped to popularize the term “logistics” and its development as a science and a practical activity in our country. No less fruitful, as a second field of research, was a combination of considerations in the field of military and economic sciences, which originally gave the results in the form of publications on the development of military and economic thought, and then a great synthesis of the development of universal economic thought. Institutional economics became the third stage and field of his research. W. Stankiewicz proved to be the first, most insightful expert in the economic school and its most ardent propagator.
