HUMAN SECURITY AND THE PHRASE “PARTNERSHIP FOR SECURITY” FOR NATO’S STRATEGIC CONCEPT
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2009, Vol 33, Issue 4
Abstract
In 2010, NATO will issue a new strategic concept. After the fall of the “Berlin Wall”, NATO Strategic Concept dilute, conceptual and factual, the size of defense – in the development paradigm “security through cooperation”. The challenges of the early 21st century require NATO to re-order the political-military options and security in a New Strategic Concept, which essentially is symbolized by the Romanian proposal of phrase “Partnership for Security” as an answer the prospective line of holistic development of “security through cooperation”. The Romanian proposal for the NATO strategic concept – “Partnership for security” –must take into account the human security concept. Human security is still an emerging paradigm for understanding global vulnerabilities whose proponents challenge the traditional notion of global, regional, and national security. The main argument is that the proper referent for security should be the individual rather than the state or alliance. NATO could act in Africa as a mobile peace building or extraction force supporting an AU or UN mission is the most credible and convenient scenario.
