SENSE AND SIGNIFICANCE IN BRINGING UP TO DATE THE DEFINITION OF SECURITY THROUGH COOPERATION

Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2007, Vol 25, Issue 4

Abstract

Security through cooperation is a long-debated topic lately. Especially after the end of the Cold War, it has become a major concern of all the interested leaders or the ones responsible for the humankind’s present and future and therefore occupies a privileged place on the international relations’ agenda. The practical successes – as Romania is an exponent and example of achieving security through cooperation – have overcome the theoretical approaches and the conceptual development. Although there is no consistent definition, one to be unanimously accepted, the security through cooperation term has gained lately lots of meanings and significances. The meanings and significances used both by the Western and the Romanian literature investigate the topic and increase the utility of the conceptual fundament for analysts, strategists, researchers but especially for the decision-makers involved in foreign affairs, security and defence.
