Abstract

The end of the Cold War has revived interest in the concept of collective security. This is not surprising taking into account the fact that the end of earlier international rivalries, such as the Napoleonic Wars, World War I, and Word War II, witnessed similar efforts to devise institutional barriers to war, be it actual or potential, through measures of collective security.

Generally speaking, security issues requiring military options and relating to defense are considered ‘hard’ ones whereas others that require non-military measures such as conflict prevention are regarded as ‘soft’. But this distinction today appears to be less relevant in view of events and experience in world affairs. See for details M. T. Klare and D. C.

• The Security dilemma refers to the notion that a state’s efforts to increase its security by threatening another state, which then responds with steps to increase its own security, paradoxically erodes the first state’s security.
