o:7899 Establishinf of Democratic and Civil Control of Security Services en Abstract: At the beginning of the 21st century, a change of global security environment in modern states has given rise to increase of threats, such as proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, terrorism, international organized crime, human trafficking and illegal trade of goods subject to control, mass migrations, money laundering, etc. These threats produce new challenges with regard to functioning of national security systems, and this naturally reflects on new complexities in establishing valid mechanisms for their control. In such circumstances security and intelligence systems must adjust to new situations to improve their efficiency. This paper deals with the ways for establishing necessary mechanisms for democratic and civil control of security services. Key words: state, democracy, national security, security services, security challenges, civil control 1552100 978-86-7020-378-5 2025-06-24T08:43:02.574Z 44 no 46 Radojica Lazić 0009-0002-2658-8220 application/pdf 164406 https://unilib.phaidrabg.rs/o:7899 no yes 16 70 92000004 71A14 Archibald Reiss Days : thematic conference proceedings of international significance : International Scientific Conference 1 419 420 2017
