Summary/Abstract: The twenty-first century started out abruptly and violently with a worldwide political upheaval – the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks that targeted major symbols of the democratic world, killing instantaneously thousands of innocent civilians. These events, followed swiftly by other similar murderous actions perpetrated in various parts of the world, triggered a deep-going transformation of the security environment, bringing about consequences that influenced profoundly the international community. Within such a tense and complex environment, the security of each individual country, as well as that of the international community as a whole, depends on the ability to anticipate and to undertake proactive actions, rather than on reacting to events or adjusting to them.
