Peace and security: two concepts and their relationship OLE WÆVER : Two concepts and their relationship
2003
Security seems to be a straightforward concept, and therefore most of the
discussion claiming to problematise it has assumed that the critical part
resided in its specifications such as ‘national security’ vs. ‘common security’ or ‘human security’. Simultaneously, the ‘uncritical’ (mainstream,
establishment, traditional) literature argued that there is no need to
dissect the concept of security as used in international affairs, because it is
a concept we know from our everyday experience, where we value it and
accordingly should do so internationally (as a state) too. However, security
as idea, concept or aspiration is far from stable or simple.
