Necessities of Transition to Sustained National Security

The purpose of this research is recognizing modern pillars of sustainable security at both state and nation levels and understanding the conceptual transition of security with its necessary requirements.According to the stated approach, adopting suitable measures for the sake of establishing mutual trust, activating individuals, and creating multi-layered participation based on the acceptance of the society’s norms and values when confronting the newly arisen security difficulties, is among the requirements. The consequence of this recognition is the implementation of new measures which were almost neglected in previous reductionist theories. The article ends with introducing appropriate strategies and methods by considering three major components, namely the social factor, security concern postponement, dialog and interaction principle. Finally, the Iranian - Islamic approach and sustained security theories are analyzed comparatively. The processing method used here to deal with the problem insists on the social factor and contextualized propositions.
