Savremeni rasizam - bezbednosni izazov, rizik i pretnja

Racism, racial affiliation, identity and inter-racial conflicts that have been present on the threshold of the new millennium are a continuous and inexhaustible socio-political and security topic. With their complex nature these issues are a subject of numerous discussions and interpretations within various contexts and for various purposes, whose contents are more or less ideological. This is an attempt to analyze and impartially present security aspects of theoretical and doctrinaire roots, factors and consequences of modern racism, racial division and interracial conflicts in developed and other societies, this particularly including transition ones. The paper also endeavors to find out the causes and mechanisms of racism transformation from the biological to the cultural level.Rasizam, rasna pripadnost, identitet i međurasni sukobi na pragu novog milenijuma predstavljaju kontinuiranu neiscrpnu sociološkopolitikološku i bezbednosnu temu. Kompleksnom prirodom ova pitanja su predmet brojnih rasprava i tumačenja, u raznim kontekstima i u različite svrhe, sa više ili manje ideološkim sadržajem. Ovo je pokušaj da se sa bezbednosnog aspekta analiziraju i objektivno oslikaju teorijski, ideološki i doktrinarni koreni nosioci i posledice modernog rasizma, rasne podele i međurasni sukobi u razvijenim i ostalim društvima, posebno društvima u tranziciji. Naglasak je i na utvrđivanju uzroka i mehanizama transformacije rasizma sa tradicionalno biološke na kulturnu ravan
