The role of university institutions in establishing national security (Social security as a case)

Abstract

In contemporary societies, security is no longer a narrow and one-dimensional concept, it has become a broad subject that can be tolerated in many dimensions and aspects, with an impact on different areas and sectors, at the same time, there are a range of factors that change the structure and components of this security and its continuity. Especially national security, which occupies a wide area influenced by many different issues and variables, especially if we look at it from an institutional perspective and examine it. In this sense, social security is a prominent dimension of national security, due to many influential factors, the most prominent of which are those institutions that have a permanent presence and take care of the course of community action. In this theoretical study, we tried to link one of the most important institutions in modern societies to the different dimensions of national security, and social security in particular, which relates to private affairs and good governance. In that study, by talking about university institutions and their supporting role for national security, including social security, and then linking the university as an important institution within society to social security, the theoretical framework was studied to link that relationship and find its effects. As a result, we have come to the conclusion that universities, through their basic functions, either directly or indirectly, will have a positive impact on the provision of social security in society.
