life and institutions, their territorial integrity and sovereignty, as well as their
welfare and well-being are protected and enhanced.
• Political development – the active participation and involvement of all individuals
to all governmental activities and public affairs.

Dimensions and Elements of National Security
The Two (2) Schools of Thought on the Meaning of National Security
• Equated with National Defense – National Security is the protection of the
nation’s people and territories from physical assault, protection from internal and
external threats.
• National Security Viewed as a Broader Concept – National Security includes the
protection of vital economic and political interests, eradication of threats against
fundamental values and vitality of the State itself. For the developing countries
where poverty is the common denominator, national security is in fact equated
with development.
The Elements of National Security
• Cultural Cohesiveness – an instance where people share the values and beliefs
handed down by their forebears and possesses a strong sense of attachment to the
national community despite of their religious, ethnic, and linguistic differences.
This cultural cohesiveness is manifested through the presence of commonalities of
ideas, feelings, and perspectives among the people of different language, religion,
lifestyle, or ethnic affiliation.
• Moral Consensus – an instance where people are inspired by their patriotism and
national pride to participate vigorously in the pursuit of the country’s goals and
objectives. There is agreement among the people where they want to go as a nation
and how they want to get there. There is agreement among the people about what
is right and what is wrong and an agreement about national vision.
• Territorial Integrity – refers to an instance where the territory of the country is
intact, and it is under the effective control of the government. The nation’s
territory is adequately protected from illegal intrusions and destructive
explorations, and rebels or belligerent group has control over any portion of the
territory where our laws cannot be enforced.
• Ecological Balance – refers to an instance where the environment can support
sustainable development strategies for the benefits of the nation and the people
who depend on it for their existence. A situation wherein current action and
 decision affecting natural resources consider the needs of future generations and
the population is accorded protection against large-scale threats to health and
survival.
• Socio-Political Stability – refers to peace and harmony among the divergent
groups of people in the country, and cooperation and support exists between the
government and the people. This refers to a situation where civil and human rights
are respected and just policies and rules are obeyed. The lawmakers and law-
enforcers are dedicated to the effective delivery of basic services to the people.
• Economic Solidarity – refers to an instance where the nation’s economy is strong,
capable of supporting national endeavors, and derives its strength from the people
who have an organic stake in it through participation or ownership. This is also a
situation where people have control over their own lives, livelihood and economic
destinies, and economic democracy prevails.
• External Peace – refers to an instance where the country and the people enjoy
cordial relations with their neighbors, and they are free from any control,
interference, or threat of aggression from any of them. A particular state or country
is respected by other nation-states regardless of its political, economic, and socio-
cultural status, and it can conduct its activities without being hampered by any
nation.
