Question
Explain the following concept.
Human Security.
Explain
Solution
- In the post-Cold War period, the concept of national security changed and became broader. National security is not just the security of the country but also of the people living in it, because security is ultimately for the people.
- Hence, human security refers to human-centric thinking. In human security, it is expected that human beings should be protected from all sorts of dangers and should be given the opportunities of education, health, and development.
- Human security also includes eliminating illiteracy, poverty, superstition, and backwardness and creating conducive conditions for everyone to live with dignity. Protection of the rights of minorities and vulnerable groups is also essential for human security.
