CONFLICT, GLOBAL PEACE & SECURITY: THE ROLE OF CIVIL DEFENCE
Journal Title: Asian Journal of Management Sciences and Education - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Debates, discussions and topical issues on security, conflict and need for global peace have been as old as the world itself. Conflict and the need for peaceful resolutions for purposes of sustainable cohabitation have been part and parcel of every human society and aeons of man development. From the very primitive epoch to the now capitalist era; conflict, disagreement, war, the need for improved security to counter the concurrent dynamism and multidimensional pattern of crime and crisis within and amidst nations of the world have been confrontational and as such, its discussions cannot be exhaustively explored. In all these however, Civil Defence as an emerging organization has played some vital roles in ameliorating the effect of war and conflict amidst the civil populace since its reckoning during the first and second world wars. The study therefore buttressed the position of dialogue and justice for all to build on this concept of civil pattern in Civil Defence civilian relation to forestall danger. This pattern has equally been largely regarded as the traditional approach to international security as well as the panacea to resolving deadlock crisis instead of opting for counter-force/mutual attacks.
