See CRICOS-registered alternativesHumanity faces many critical security challenges in the 21st century. Intense geopolitical competition and even international wars are returning to world politics, while civil war and terrorism are widespread. Politicians and experts have also expressed concerns about a range of new and evolving security challenges. These include climate change, pandemics, cyberattacks, underdevelopment, and irregular migration, among others. This subject provides students with a comprehensive introduction to security studies. It first discusses various concepts of security, including different ideas about whose security is at stake (states, societies, individuals), how to identify security challenges, and what can be done about them. Students analyse a broad range of traditional and emerging security challenges, including war, climate change, pandemics, cyberattacks, and food insecurity.
