THE ROLE OF SECURITY-PROVIDING ORGANIZATIONS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE 21ST CENTURY

Abstract

Nowadays, the international security environment is in constant transformation and has become fluid and dynamic. Thus, the global security environment is a result of the multiple relationships that are manifested between the actors of the international scene (state and non-state actors) and that are found in different relations of dependence on each other. We consider that international security actors are constantly resized and reshaped as a result of the mutual interdependencies of economic, political, military, cultural, social, demographic, scientific, information and other manifestations. That is why it is quite difficult to identify the exact methods and means necessary for the capabilities to anticipate threats and risks that are generated by the global security environment. It is also necessary to increase the role of international security organizations in combating the effects of threats and, in particular, of terrorism, hybrid threats and cross-border organized crime.
