Book excerpt: Traditional Approaches To National Security Have Privileged State Security Without According Equal Importance To Human Security Or The Security Of The Individual, Its Ultimate Beneficiary. Neither Are Non-Military Threats Like Economic Instability, Ethnic, Caste And Communal Tensions, Demographic Movements, Environmental Degradation, Apart From The Continuing Menace Of Terrorism, Provided Salience, Although The Focus Of National Security Has Decisively Shifted From Inter-State To Intra-State Conflicts Within Regional Security Complexes In The International System. The Indian State Is Not Unaware Of These Looming, Non-Traditional And Emerging Dangerous, But The Enfeeblement Of Its Political And Administrative Institutions Has Adversely Affected Its Capacity To Meet These Threats While The Expectations Of The People Have Risen And Are Growing In An Exponential Manner.
