Abstract

This chapter presents a response to Chapter 23’s account of right to security. It argues that debate about the right to security can usefully be structured by answering these four broad questions: First, are there any enforceable positive duties to protect others? Secondly, to what extent do these duties fall on states? Thirdly, under what circumstances and in what way should the right to security be enshrined in a state's constitution? Finally, in what circumstances is the international community permitted or required to interfere with sovereign states to enforce duties of security, or to provide security directly? The chapter attempts to illuminate these questions by identifying some difficult issues that need addressing if they are to be answered.
