Summary/Abstract: Security as a phenomenon and a concept is a topic that is very current and important for today’s modern society. A full understanding of the process in society and the world of politics in general is inconceivable without an understanding of security and its forms and sources of threat. In the multitude of sources of security threats, war is considered very important. The peculiarity of war in the context of endangering security is reflected not only in its brutality, violence, number of victims and a wide range of negative consequences, but that war in the global context is a real cataclysm that basically affects all mankind. Due to its complexity and complexity, war, as a total social conflict and a source of insecurity, affects all spheres of socio-political life and thus leaves disastrous consequences on people, the social system and society as a whole. This paper aims to point out not only the conceptual definition of war and security, as well as historical context, but also to clearly point out the threat of war and its consequences, with special reference to these two phenomena and their relationship in today’s globalizing modern society.
