Abstract

Ending the Cold War was the end of the tension and fear of the outbreaking the global (nuclear) war. Although it seemed that "the world finally relieved", international actors have had to give themselves up to the problems that were neglected due to the Cold war conflicts. Namely, in the international arena has been a proliferation of non-military security threats – disintegrational nationalist and religious extremism that resulted in civil wars, violent overturns, armed insurgencies and terrorism, expansion of all types of international crime, illegal migration, globalization of poverty and economic crisis, intensifying natural disasters and threats to the environment, etc. The greatest threat to national security is no longer a war, but non-military threats that are often global range threats, or threats that came within the state, by non-state actors. The new international security milieu and a new agenda of security threats have made the traditional (and militaristic and state-oriented) concept of national security, insufficient and inefficient, and therefore unsustainable. Besides, the state is no longer the only security provider, but it gets the ”competitors” in form of non-state security sector. Changes in the entire international security milieu have caused a change in the way in which nations protect their own safety. So,we clearly notice national security system reform and creating a new philosophical approach in national security strategy and implementation of national security policy. Finally, it is evident that a new epoch of national security culture has come.
