Global Responses to Global Threats: Sustainable Security for the 21st Century

This research project, from the Oxford Research Group, brings a wider approach to contemporary threats which are often interconnected. Led, in large part, by the United Nations, there is growing international awareness that problems such as international terrorism or armed conflict cannot be dealt with in isolation from those of extreme poverty or environmental degradation. These are all global issues, which threaten human security as well as state security, and they recognise no national borders.
