Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes the changed concept of security in the era after the cold war, and its importance for the international community as a whole and for its basic values. Special attention is given to the indivisibility and mutual conditions of the security problem, democracy and markets. The research approach is multi-disciplinary and aimed at an analysis of the war against Croatia within the context of the post-cold war era and its associated obstacles to reaching peace and stability. The roots, causes and inducements to conflict are determined and the assumptions for peace and stability in the region are researched. Starting with the case of Croatia and the consequences of international crisis caused by aggressive Serbian policy of expansionism, the author offers a suggestion for a new security concept - the concept of metasecurity - for the era after the cold war.
