Human Security and the Mainstreaming of People in International Relations

Description

For the series of Stories of People- and Planet-Centred Cooperation, Rethinking Security interviewed Zsófia Hacsek of Coventry University about the origins, meaning and impact of the Human Security paradigm. Over three decades, this centring of people and planet has revolutionised thinking about security, but also experienced a backlash from those committed to the ‘national security’ concerns of ‘sovereign’ states.
