ANALYZING SECURITY GAPS AT URBAN AREAS: CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK FOR “URBAN SECURITY DIVIDE”

Abstract

This study aims to propose urban security divide as a descriptive concept to analyze security gaps at urban areas, arising from varying levels of access to public security services and/or ineffective provision of public security. In this context, the ultimate aim of urban security policies should be to narrow security gaps as much as possible so as to eliminate inequalities. In an urban area, which includes the city and its surrounding areas such as towns and suburbs, security divide may exist between those living at different urban spaces, between socioeconomic groups, and between communities etc. Issues of urban security has come to forefront in the last three decades within United Nations (UN) sustainable development agenda due to rapid and/or unplanned urbanization, increasing poverty and inequalities, migration, organized crime and terrorism, thus leading to deterioration of social cohesion and human security conditions. While the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development interrelates security and sustainable development in general, the Goal 11 of it dedicates a particular focus on making cities and human settlements safer. European Forum for Urban Security (EFUS) also renewed its commitment to urban security in 2017, emphasizing the co-production of urban security policies and interdependency between security, democracy and sustainable development. Drawing upon pertinent literature and documents, the study first describes urban security divide and develops a conceptual framework for it to analyze urban security gaps. The study proceeds with methodological discussion of urban security divide as an analytical tool and puts some conclusions for researchers.
