Establishing community security in post-conflict societies and its impact on protecting human rights

Abstract

The boundaries of the relationship between community security and human rights principles are consistent with approaches that balance the promotion of human security while not compromising human rights under the shadow of conflict and its aftermath. The imposition of security does not necessarily entail disregard for human rights. Rather, the human value system, according to contemporary security studies, has a distinct cultural, linguistic, religious, ethnic, and other status, which has contributed to reformulating the concept of security by preserving human rights values. As a result, the concept of security has become more expansive and comprehensive, and the human being and his rights are the fundamental focus around which security revolves in general, and a starting point for achieving community security in particular. This requires, first and foremost, the preservation of national human rights sources guaranteed by the constitution, and international human rights legally regulated, and related civil and political rights, as well as economic, social, and cultural rights.
