About This Course

The central concepts of legitimacy, authority and power are the pillars of all modern governments regardless of their ideological positions. Students will learn to criticize the three arms of government, viz., legislature, executive and the judiciary. The course relates the concepts of legitimacy, authority, power and justice to the security of modern states. Relevant security issues are evaluated in terms of the state and civil society, defence, health and environment. Modern governments from around the world will be used to illustrate their different approaches to security as well as the common ground that such state security approaches share.
