| Abstract: |
Canada’s new commitment to human security is a promise to concern ourselves with human rights, the establishment of an international rule of law, and the advancement of literacy, food security, health care, political representation, and the well-being of the weaker members of the human family. Another familiar concept — development — designates all these non-military aspects of security. Peace Magazine has usually paid more attention to the problem of violence than to development, and in this article I want to rectify that imbalance — first by summarizing some debates over various approaches to development, and then by reporting on a recent discussion at the University of Toronto. |
