The Two (2) Schools of Thought on the
Meaning of National Security
• National Security Viewed as a Broader
Concept – National Security includes the
protection of vital economic and political
interests, eradication of threats against
fundamental values and vitality of the State
itself. For the developing countries where
poverty is the common denominator, national
security is in fact equated with development.
The Elements of National
Security
• Cultural Cohesiveness – an instance where
people share the values and beliefs handed
down by their forebears and possesses a strong
sense of attachment to the national community

be enforced.
