PRACTICAL BASIS OF THE ORGANIZATIONAL AND LEGAL CONTEXTS OF ENSURING COOPERATIVE SECURITY: CURRENT REALITIES AND MAIN THREATS

Abstract

The conceptual and categorical apparatus of “cooperative security” is investigated and three main approaches to the interpretation of the security concept components are substantiated. As the result of scientific research, the main goals of cooperative security are identified. The general characteristics of the concept of cooperative security in the context of practice-oriented application of “security triangle” are justified. On this basis, the actualization of the application of appropriate vectors is established in order to eliminate the requirements of the states being at risk of taking appropriate countermeasures. It is established that the concept of cooperative security is based on the principles of strengthening security by means of cooperation, and the main element is the system of collective security with more developed political and legal mechanisms. It is proved that under modern conditions there is the need for constant search of optimal models or concepts of international security. It should be noted that there is no ideal solution, since security requires requires reconciling the expectations of individual states with different statuses and interests.
