Summary/Abstract: In the periods of dynamic transformations and changes, they are found in the normative-axiological space (splitting it), translating into various processes of disintegration and inconsistencies. Their particular passage was the inspiration for the creation of this article. The results in the paper come from the author’s own scientific research. The author, specifying the field of considerations, defines the notions of anomie (in this: legal anomie) and impunity (no responsibility), and diagnosed consequences of the outsourcing of military operations. The work is summarized with the qualitative analysis of the research findings. The author used (often confronting different English and Polish-language versions) numerous sources after their critical review. The purpose of the study was to diagnose the consequences of outsourcing of military operations – such as anomia (also: legal anomaly) and impunity (case study). In the analyzed case study, the author pointed out new dimensions of outsourcing relationships in the areas connected with the functioning of political power in the context of the consequences of outsourcing broadly understood (sensu largo) as military activities: knowledge and axiological (shared systems of values and secret knowledge, tacit knowledge), business and human resources (joint advantages of informal interest groups), and executive and teleological.
