CLIMATE CHANGE, FOOD SECURITY, AND HEALTH SECURITY. AN ANALYSIS ON SOME GLOBAL TRENDS AND THREATS

Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on specific concepts which theoretically belong to the new approaches on security, emerging and becoming more and more relevant after the end of the Cold War. The structure of the article includes the description and analysis of the concepts, such as “health security”, “food security”, the trends in the fields of International Relations and Security Studies, as well as changes triggered by the recent global pandemic. The main argument is that health security, food security, and the so-called “pharmaceutical turn” in security policies, as evidenced by the COVID-19 pandemic, are no longer “issues” on the soft politics agenda, not merely global threats (that inter-state, traditional approaches cannot solve), but rather major and unavoidable sectors of security.
