“…The national security system consists of elements that deal with internal security (police, security services, the judicial system, etc.) and elements predominantly oriented towards external security (armed forces and intelligence services), which are subject to international norms and internal ones (Ostojić and Mitrović, 2017).…”

National security determines the degree to which endangering national interests that sublimate national values is absent. With a review of the genesis and framework of the modern interpretation of national security, the paper discusses its approaches to endangerment. A retrospective of the ideas of endangerment in the paradigm of the changed physiognomy of contemporary conflicts and dynamic geopolitical movements creates the need for an innovative approach and prediction in national security strategic assessments. The paper provides an overview of the internal and external political aspects of national security and a framework for the actions of prominent entities according to the perceived foreign policy interests of importance for the Republic of Serbia's security. By analysing common and conflicting interests of Serbia and forces that have geopolitical interests in the Western Balkans, it is possible to establish the most objective framework for predicting the trend of relationship development and the vector of influence. The paper analyses Serbia's interactions with Russia, the United States, and the EU. The findings point to a complex situation regarding Serbia's national security, where Russia seeks to maintain its strong soft power presence, the United States wants close cooperation and insistence on recognising Kosovo's independence, and the EU does not vigorously stimulate or promote Serbia's European integration. In that way, a concrete contribution is made to the developing of strategic assessments of possible trends of importance for the Republic of Serbia's security, as well as to the achievement of declared national goals.

Domestic violence can be viewed as a potential risk and security threat, a form of conscious, intentional, internal threat to the integrity and existence of other people, primarily family members. Viewing domestic violence as a security phenomenon additionally indicates the seriousness of the problem, which requires urgent action by all relevant social actors. The paper presents the results of a part of the empirical research that I carried out in the period from February 1 to June 30, 2020, which included 522 citizens from the entire territory of Montenegro, with the aim of examining the citizens' perception of the phenomenon of domestic violence as a risk factor for human security. The research revealed that the majority of citizens of Montenegro have widespread awareness of the prevalence of domestic violence and domestic violence as a security problem. However, the data differ by region, and citizens from the North of Montenegro, compared to citizens from the south and central regions, are the least likely to perceive domestic violence as a high degree of threat to human security and are the least likely to report violence. Every country and its citizens have an obligation to approach the phenomenon of domestic violence as a security problem and undertake all necessary activities, interventions and measures in order to reduce the number and frequency of new cases, reduce the direct and indirect consequences for victims and society and prevent the impact of domestic violence on the appearance of other forms of violence and vice versa, which is important for all levels of security in a society.
