| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc | Threats to human security do not necessarily take cataclysmic forms such as war or natural disaster, nor does human insecurity exist solely within a suspended living environment like refugee camps. This publication explores less obvious threats to human security and how people and communities face them.--Publisher's description. |
