Cooperation of the Local Government with the Private Security Sector in Ensuring Local Security

Summary/Abstract: Local communities are becoming increasingly important in the process of ensuring security. Although these issues arethe responsibility of the most important national state authorities, thanks to the principle of decentralisation of public authority,some of these powers have been transferred to lower levels of the state’s territorial division, including the local level. From the pointof view of ensuring security, this is extremely important. The local government bodies are closest to the citizens, thanks to whichthey know their needs best. It should be noted, however, that many stakeholders are involved in ensuring local security, includingthe private sector. For the actions taken by all entities involved in this process to be effective, their cooperation is necessary. Thestudy aimed to analyse and evaluate local government cooperation at the local (municipal) level with the private security sector.
