Individual and Social Securities as Human Rights
Abstract
Security as an issue of human rights is not a univocal concept in the set of international legal instruments. Its two major manifestations, personal security since an early stage and, subsequently, national security, maintain with each other a kind of tense relations that hinder the construction and implementation of a specific human right to personal and collective security. Searching for an allegedly fully comprehensive concept of security encompassing its multiple manifestations –more than two– in the present-day field of international human rights law, a new category has been coined, that of human security. Nevertheless, a coherent conjugation between all those currently coexisting meanings does certainly not constitute yet nowadays an achievement, but a challenge.
