National security system: An attempt to define the notion

Abstract

Contemporary security challenges, emerging in the areas of politics, economy finance, energy, ecology, religion, culture, informatics, and other areas of social life, impose a need for involving a greater number of state and social organizations in the activities that help foster the national security. In addition to increasing the number of the organizations addressing the national security issues, there is a need to respond to the security risks challenges and threats in a united and coordinated manner, which makes the notions of 'national security' and 'national security system' more complex. The paper basically presents an attempt to define the term 'national security System' and determine its scope, based on an analysis of its structure.

Savremeni bezbednosni izazovi, koji se javljaju u oblastima politike ekonomije, finansija, energetike, ekologije, religije, kulture, informatike i drugih oblasti društvenog života, nameću potrebu uključivanja većeg broja državnih i društvenih organizacija u poslove kojima se osigurava nacionalna bezbednost. Pored povećavanja broja organizacija, koje se bave pitanjima nacionalne bezbednosti, postoji potreba da se na bezbednosne rizike izazove i pretnje odgovori na jedinstven i usklađen način što dovodi do usložnjavanja pojmova 'nacionalna bezbednost' i 'sistem nacionalne bezbednosti'. Osnovni predmet rada jeste pokušaj da se definiše pojam 'sistem nacionalne bezbednosti' i da se odredi njegov sadržaj na osnovu analize njegove strukture.
