“International “ and
“Global Security”
2
Traditional
and
Non-traditional
conceptions of
security.

Global security in the contemporary world

It is the result of purposeful efforts and


activities of the international community, a set
of rules and institutions, focusing on the
elimination of international armed conflicts,
political stability, steady economic growth,
minimize the impact of global issues.

Security itself is complicated,
internally structured, multifactor
and hierarchized phenomenon.
Structuralization and
hierarchization of security are
given by its internal
structuring into subsystems along
with their identification in systems
of higher level.
What is Global
Security
Global security also called
International security is a term
that refers to the measures taken
by states and international
organizations, such as the United
Nations, European Union, and
others, to ensure mutual survival
and safety.

Importance of global security

Some of these goals are issues of critical


importance where the quality of life for billions
of people is at stake. These include: ending
terrorism, preventing pandemic diseases,
obtaining cyber security and stable
financial markets, and bringing about
peaceful democratization in transitioning
countries.

Major global security issue
Once viewed as peripheral security
threats, issues of health, environment,
crime, migration, poverty, among others
are increasingly central to international
peace and security. These problems pose
unprecedented challenges for the
international community in an increasingly
globalized world.
9
Threats to global security
The range of threats- among
them, regional coercion and
meddling, transnational terrorism,
health insecurity, use of chemical
and other unconventional
weapons, massive displacement
of populations, and overwhelming
humanitarian crises- creates a
complex operating environment.

10
Global Security in the contemporary
world has not stood still: the importance
of risk management and
the need to build resilience has since
become a top issue for decision makers
who are
recognizing that risks are no longer
isolated but inherently dynamic in nature
and cross-
ing many spheres of influence. Security
is one of the most sensed human needs
which is a precondition of development.
