Security is very important for many different reasons. A nation must ensure its own safety as a whole, as well as that of the people living in the nation. It is equally important that the nation's economy is stable and growing. Security is something that every nation deals with, in many different ways. It's a way for nations to come together and create allies. However, it is also a way for nations to create enemies. There are numerous concerns that require attention around the world, including state security, human security, and economic security. Political and economic relations have a different impact on each of these security issues, as demonstrated by history and current events around the world. “The nation-state system has proven to be an enormously successful construct” (Smallman and Brown 37). Nation states exist when its citizens think alike and live harmoniously under one government. “Security has been defined in terms of the survival of the nation-state and its ability to maintain its sovereignty” (Smallman and Brown 37). Fundamentally, nations deserve to retain the authority and power to lead themselves. In a democracy, the citizens of the nation are able to make more decisions for the nation. For example, when voting on who will lead the nation, voters are able to consider many different aspects of candidates. Citizens are therefore to some extent able to decide whether or not to engage in war. This is an example of how politics affects state security. This is important because “the first duty of every government is to ensure the safety of its citizens from external threats” (Smallman and Brown 36). This is why the implementation of peace by the United Nations is ideal because the fact is that "at the present time... middle of the paper... to be done. There have been unnecessary killings and beatings and now the country is trying to keep the rest of the world ignorant on the issue. The concern of Venezuelan citizens is less of a concern. This shows that “how people define security is defined by historical and national conflict” (Smallman and Brown 36). ) Policies and insights into security management change every day. In conclusion, politics and economics have a huge impact on security. This is demonstrated by the way nations approach security issues and the actions they take It is also proven by historical and current events. Security is a global issue that separates nations and unites them. Humans are stubborn and if they want something really bad, they will fight to get it. This is clear despite all the security actions taken.
