Foundations of National Security Theory

National Security Theory posits that the international strategic environment is harsh, uncertain, intolerant, and dangerous; consequently, it requires a deliberate and comprehensive strategy that includes all functional sectors of the state in order to generate the elements of national power necessary to achieve defense purposes. Methodologically, there are three motives that establish the general basis of National Security Theory and at the same time serve as basic drivers for the development of comprehensive concepts and ideas on the issue of multi-sectoral national security, defined as socio-strategic fragility, socio-strategic power, and socio-strategic defense. It is a conceptual system and an operational combination directed towards containing the primary roots of the multi-faceted threats.
