Title:

SECURITY AS A DIMENSION OF AN ONTOLOGICAL BALANCE

Creator:

Abstract:

The modern notion of security, in a general philosophical sense, is a multi-dimensional conception that can be applied to any form of existence dependent upon survival and development. Th is general characterization of security grows out of methods and explanatory means directed at defining the relation between war and peace, with synonyms thereof. Th us, analysis of security in ontological terms refers to a balance between the idea of happiness (peace) and the reality of aggression (war). Such an approach, according to the author, seems to be cognitively valuable because of its twofold perspective. It allows for both, the exact and the universal definition of security, while addressing a specialized subject issues. With this point of view author presents an outline of such perception.
