Security Is A Threat Of Security

Barry Buzan offers five explanations for what he terms as ‘the persistent underdevelopment of thinking about security’. The first possible explanation is that the idea has proved too complex to attract analysts, and has therefore been neglected in favour of more tractable concepts. The domain and contradictions of security have not been adequately explored. A second explanation lies in the real

It answers, as far as it can, questions as “Is Islam against the West?” and “Who defines moderate Islam post 9/11?”.

He is a professor of peace and conflict studies and seems like he has a very broad amount of knowledge in the area of different wars including war on terror. His book security and the war on terror are pushed towards readers who care about the security of their country and the war on terror. ‘This edited book recognises a fundamental issue: while major crises initially tend to reinforce old thinking and behavioural patterns, they also allow societies to challenge and overcome entrenched habits, thereby creating the foundations for a new and perhaps more peaceful future’ .

It is important to clarify that this is not an unique and unite theory, but instead it differs from scholar to scholar because each one have a different focus. With the emergence of new non-state threats that not only affect States but also individuals, like terrorism, the need for a new approach capable of offering new responses was indeed needed, following a post-positivist way (Malik, 2005). In the last years the wake up call to rethink security as a concept was the 9/11 attacks, giving to critical theory an opportunity.

In the world today, a lot of terrorism activities have been witnessed with thousands of innocent people being victims. This has led to a belief shared by many that Muslims are generally terrorists. This may have come due to the fact that a lot of terrorism activities are carried out by Muslim extremists but that does not qualify everyone practicing Islam as a terrorist. An article by Pritchard (2015) indicated that a lot of British Muslims feel that they are often associated with actions of extremism and little attention is given to the positive actions they participate in. Of course, in some ways, the fact that few

The United States faces several national security challenges. For one, it has seemingly lost its leadership role in space activities. Other countries, such as China, are ramping up investments in space, while “NASA’s budget is at a historic low as a share of the overall federal budget.” Return on investments in space technology has benefitted the civilian space program and the military alike. U.S. military operations and intelligence collection rely on space systems and “access to these capabilities must be assured”. Ironically, there is a concern of congestion in space with over 60 nations and government consortia operating satellites in addition to academic and commercial operators. There is an increase of anti-satellite testing

Epidemic and disease outbreak in Guatemala have not in the past caused an issue of displacement. The challenges that Guatemala faces with an outbreak would be more a factor of their healthcare and security systems that they have in place. Although Guatemala’s focus has been on having individuals participate in their own healthcare, it is still lacking (Ruano et al 94). The struggle of private verses public security is also an issue when it would come into a crisis situation. Guatemala would rely on outside assistance from foreign countries in order to properly treat and secure their citizens. Guatemala would be left vulnerable to a major epidemic without help from outside sources, because of the lack of support of healthcare and security provided.

"Security is everyone’s business" Which is the point I would like to conclude with at the end of my essay? Yet the assignment poses two questions, the first highlights the term 'Security Management' which is fundamental towards the second question that focuses on the importance in identifying the proportionate and appropriate balance between the right security measures to the right threat.

In an instance when one’s life is challenged due to an unfortunate event, survival competence must be considered. In the case that a group of terrorist’s planted a nuclear device in a London apartment building, public security must come up with a plan that resolves the situation without causing a great amount of harm to the city. After monitoring the group of terrorist’s, the police decide to bring one of them in for questioning. They believe that the terrorist knows where and when the bomb will go off but if he refuses to talk or give any information, the terrorist attack will be a success and the bomb will go off.
