Abstract

People have been developing and continue to make enormous efforts, energy, and resources to ensure their safety since the beginning of their existence. The security and existence of people have been interconnected since time immemorial, and the history of mankind is, to a certain extent, also the history of the struggle for its security. That is also why the term security is one of those terms that we encounter almost daily and that we use very often throughout our lives. The term itself has several different meanings and dimensions, and with the development and ongoing changes in human society it is constantly gaining new ones. This is proof not only of the fact that the development of the security agenda is in constant progress, especially in the first two decades of the 21st century, but also that the approach of politicians, political scientists, academics, soldiers, security, and other experts to security is many times very different. Based on the above, the primary goal of the...

ON THE CONCEPTION OF SECURITY (A PHILOSOPHICAL APPROACH)
Vihren Bouzov

Security studies are an interdisciplinary field of scientific cooperation. It successfully combines studies and methods from the spheres of political, legal, technical and military sciences, as well as such in philosophy, psychology, sociology and economics, owing to the poly-semantic content of this notion; covering: basic human need, human rights and a key sphere of social system – itself functioning in a systemic framework. Also, it bears on state functions and basic characteristics of international relations and on organizational and personal development. Owing to the growing insecurity in the world today, under the conditions of globalization and growth of new threats and risks, research interest in security problems has gone into deeper details of late. As a result of this, the content of security has become enlarged; it could no longer be limited to military aspects or the maintenance of law and order. The very functions of national states have changed; they are now involved in rivalry relationships with a variety of subjects in activities keeping up national and international security.

Comparison of Theoretical Approaches to Security.pdf
Ropafadzo Muzorori

This paper seeks to examine the security study and the analytical understanding of its paradigm which has been a thing of great interest for Philosophers, thinkers and critical analysts. Their theoretical approach in the discus of causes, answers given, why, how, and what lead to the security problems in the international system or relations? Three of the most influential theoretical approaches are Realism, Constructivism and Liberalism. To provide answers as to why the world is what it is (a stage of survival of the fittest by any means as explained by the realists), concepts such as anarchy, self-help, materials, static or cruel nature of man, power, military and deterrence (the US vs the Soviet Union as was the case during cold war). This explains how the realists portray threat perception. The liberals threat perception and their claims of “what ought to be” seek to provide a peaceful framework for existence, thus to eliminate the threat of one’s existence according to liberalism. This is viewed from two parts: The Economic Liberalism and the Institutional Liberalism, respectively dealing with issues such as cooperation, governance without government, integration, for example, European Union, democratization, interdependence etc. And the last, being the Constructivist approach which approaches security issues by focusing on the social construction of security (constructive securitization and DE securitization), dimension, culture or identity and historical factors or antecedence which involved actors, events and actions.

Thinking About Security in the Contemporary World
Basri Kastrati

2022

Contemporary security risks and threats initiate a new thinking about security and a new thinking about the content of the security agenda. The world is confronting both, by traditional (military) and contemporary (nonmilitary) threats today, which must be prevented and defeated collectively, by applying a mutual set of traditional and new approaches and methods. Such a situation directly raises the dilemma about the essential thinking of security in today's modern world. Therefore, the paper analysis about these security aspects is divided into two main directions. Regarding the first one, the focus is on the evolutionary nature of the security and its changing perceptions and theoretic understandings in different contexts, while in the second one, the focus is on the contemporary understanding of security in today's modern world, especially through the prism of increasingly promoted concepts of the environmental security, food security, and energy security.

About Security in Contemporary World
Ladislav Hofreiter

Securitologia, 2015

The task to ensure security in contemporary world is a complicated political, scientifictechnological and socioeconomic problem. As the security itself is complicated, multifactor and hierarchized phenomen also its investigation has to be of an interdisciplinary character. The character of security environment, the character of security risks and threats and also the character of tools for their elimination are essentially changing. The basis to security of social subject consisted in arrangement of the conditions for their existence, to surviving in the present time and advancement into the future. Assurance of this condition means it provided ability to the social subjects to eliminated threats that are defined. In situations of asymmetrical security, the threats are not always clearly defined. They often consist of their own structure systems, in relationships and status the subjects of internationals relations. Asymmetrical of security, by our opinion, presents a discrepancy, unbalance, non-parity between subjects of the international security environment. The unbalance, discrepancy, non-parity has political, military, economic, law, social and societal dimensions.

Security and security complex.: Operational concepts
Luis Tomé

Janus Net, 2010

Security is one of the most ambiguous, contested, and debated ideas in the conceptual framework of international relations. The "traditional" perspective has been severely contested as new approaches develop, and the concept of security has been reworked in all its fundamental components and dimensions, from object and reference to range and security instruments. Likewise, the discussion over the definition and characterization of international security systems, namely regarding competitive security, common security, cooperative security, collective security, and security community, continues to be very lively. Starting from these debates, and in the light of the current international situation, we propose operational concepts of security and of security complex.

Concept of Security in the Theoretical Approaches
Fakhreddin Soltani

Among others, Wolfers' idea on concept of security achieved the most popularity among political scientists. The core assumption of his idea is lack of threat and fear against values of a nation. But the assumption of the threat and fear does not carry the same meaning in the main theoretical approaches. This article is to explain the main approaches of rationalism, reflectivism and constructivism and their interpretation on concept of security keywords: Rationalism, Reflectivism, Constructivism, Security

Stoyko Stoykov, Elitsa PETROVA

Vojenské rozhledy, 2021

Security and defence issues have always been the subject of scientific and artistic interest. The topicality of the researched issues is especially emphasized in the conditions of changing the concepts of security and bringing them from the traditional level to a level reflecting the modern reality. The article attempts to review the genesis and development of the security concept by presenting related and fundamental concepts, related and synonymous terms of the term "security", and various levels of security. The authors try to briefly describe the problem, which is reflected in a number of Bulgarian and international scientific and legislative sources, and which reflects the research purpose of the presented work.

Concepts of security from a perspective of political science
ozan sabri tuncer

Acta Politica Polonica

Security is one of the most basic needs of human beings and has become one of the fundamental issues not only for people but also for the states. Security has emerged within the human history and it is one of the fundamental concepts of the discipline of international relations. Many studies have been carried out into the concept of security in the discipline of international relations and many definitions of this concept have been offered in the conceptual and theoretical framework of these studies. However, in the literature there is no one, commonly accepted definition of security. Since security has a dynamic structure, the concept of security has also changed cyclically and maintained its existence. Unique opportunities for the concept of security emerged particularly during and after the cold war, arousing interest of many disciplines and theorists. The concept of security, which continues its existence today, has changed and deepened, confronted with different threats. In our study, firstly, the concept of security will be defined and its analysis will be performed by associating it with humanity and its history. Afterwards, it will be explained how the change in the system transformed the concept of security as conceived in terms of the critical theories developed in the cold war period and later. nr 1/2022 (53) Concepts of security from a perspective of political science

Insights into the development of the security concept
Radoslav Ivancik

Entrepreneurship and Sustainability Issues, 2023

The prosperity and development of human civilization and the sustainable growth of individuals, social groups and states have never been more strongly dependent on national and international security than in today's dynamically changing and globally interconnected world. For this reason, security research plays a significant role in the development of human society as a whole, especially in these turbulent and changing times, characterized by the global and regional security environment crisis and by increasing tensions in international relations. What does this development and its perception mean for one of the primary functions of the modern state, which is to ensure its security and the safety of its citizens, and what is the impact on research in this area? Following this, the development of the methodology of political science in the context of the development of the very concept of security is the subject of the presented discussion, a study in which, using appropriate methods of applied scientific research, we rely primarily on security science theory and theory of international relations. The methodology presented by us is based on a heuristic approach in research in political science (international relations). At the same time, it represents an analysis, synthesis and comparison of possible starting points processed in theoretical studies and practical constructs of authors who reflect the concept of security from the system theories' point of view. At the same time, the study's authors aim to open a discussion on new hypotheses and possible scenarios for the future development of political and security science.

The Extension of the Concept of Security
Ernst Hirsch Ballin

Security in an Interconnected World, 2020

The classical view of security as relating to nation states and the protection of their territory still lies at the heart of thinking about national and international security. Defence in the sense of national defence is a key task of the nation state and for centuries the sovereignty of states has formed the basis of the international legal order. Today, however, security encompasses more than protecting the state's territory against military aggression by another state, as is illustrated in Fig. 2.1. With globalisation and the emergence of new economic powers, for example, the relationship between economic and military security has become a far more prominent issue. In an interconnected world, flow security-safeguarding global flows of goods and services, infrastructural hubs and systems-is of the utmost importance. In a world of transnational connections, protecting national territory against hostile armies is not enough. Moreover, since the 1980s, and to an even greater extent since the end of the Cold War, there has been a significant increase in concern for human rights and for economic and social development (human security). After all, physical violence is partially explained by the structural violence as a result of disadvantaged social circumstances. National and international security are therefore linked to the security of the society and the individual. The security of the nation state is not a goal in itself, but is for the benefit of the society. Particularly since 11 September 2001, the blurring of the boundaries between internal and external security has also entered the debate about security policy 1 with the realisation that non-state actors such as Al Qaida and Da'esh have come to form part of the landscape of security and insecurity. The sovereignty of states over their

Development of the idea of security
Gojko Pavlovic

СОЦИОЛОШКИ ДИСКУРС, 2017

Historically, the concept of security has been understood, interpreted and defined in diff erent ways. In addition, it is a notion that has been, unlike anyother, mentioned and studied in all branches of science, natural and technical,as well as social and humanistic ones. It is exactly due to the utilizationof the concept of security in diff erent areas of life, that it has been much morediffi cult to defi ne it uniformly. Furthermore, it is the fact that the changesoccurring on the international scene since the end of the Cold War causedthe changes in ideas related to the security in general, and all its concepts.With referral to the previous, this paper points out that traditional conceptsof security are no longer able to explain and deal with the complex nature ofcontemporary security challenges, risks and threats. Th at is why nowadays,when considering the security issues, there are numerous perplexities, such asthe question whom the security needs to be provided for, who is re...
