The application of modal experiment in the research of the potential systems of security at local level in the Republic of Serbia

Abstract

The development of cybernetics conditioned the appearance of the modelling method as general scientific model and made the unity of theory and practice become by far more qualitative from, until then, ruling statistic method. This method appears in social sciences as modal experiment. By using of this fundamental experiences, the authors in this paper are firstly theoretically analysing the concept and structure of modelling including the concept and kinds of modelling, the concept and kinds of experiment, thus, its basic model in modal experiment and, finally, as the essential part of the paper, conceptual model of the security system of the Republic of Serbia and variables of modal experiment. Generally speaking, the model is considered from strategic, doctrinaire, legal-normative and organisastional-functional aspect adequate to contemporary security movements in the world, our needs and objective possibilities as well. Its application is, of course, possible in the local self-management, which is becoming increasingly important factor of the state security system.
