This article analyses the influence that political constraints and technical issues have on the connection between security and development, particularly in discussion on the post-2015 global development agenda. After theoretical grounding, an analysis is done to contextualise the most influential elements. Following some discussion, the practicalities of the post-2015 agenda for development is exposed, contributing to the materialisation of the problems (and opportunities) with the connection between security and development, as well as perspectives on the inclusion of concrete goals that seek this connection in a future global agenda.
