In recent developments of globality, states, albeit reluctantly,
have "relinquished" some of their decision making powers, not to a
higher authority but to a process where interests have become
impossible to define relative to national boundaries. In this
changing world, security has acquired a "new" meaning: Until the
end of the Cold War, security essentially meant defending and
protecting the territories of states from other states who were
perceived as sources of threat, whether individually or in concert
with others. Amidst the mercurial turnabouts, security is no longer
just a problem of territoriality. It has become supra-national, crossnational and has expanded to encompass a set of individual and
collective values relating to life, rather than sheer borderlines.
