Security sector development/ Rouben Azizian
Material type: TextPublication details: 2014Subject(s): In: Asia Pacific Defense Forum Vol.39, Issue. 3, 2014, pp.30-35 (F5) Summary: Most discourse on security in the Indo Asia Pacific focuses on current and emerging threats. Much less attention goes to the preparedness of national security agencies and entities, collectively defined as security sector, to respond to them. Regional security conversations rarely acknowledge that a lack of professionalism, responsibility or proper political guidance to the security sectors often contributes to insecurity, instability or conflict, be it internal or between states. Finally, the concept of security sector reform (SSR) that addresses some of these issues has been applied quite narrowly to mainly address post-conflict situations.Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode | |
