Summary/Abstract: Human security refers to the assertion, promoting and protection of human rights, being centered on the security of individuals and communities in direct relationship to human rights and human development. The 3 concepts ‐ human security, human rights and human development ‐ are interconnected, concern human lives andimpose minimum standards on how all individuals, but also entities such as states, should to relate to human lives. The right to human security must be seen as an individual moral right, in full consensus with the phenomenon of shifting the focus from community to individual, in the context of globalization; it outlines a minimum morality necessary either to respect the dignity of human beings or to protect their fundamental interests, human security being a key value with multiple valences, which cannot be reduced to ensuring a simple right to physical subsistence.
