THE INTERNATIONAL SECURITY ENVIRONMENT IS IN A STABLE STATE ALTHOUGH THIS DOES NOT PRECLUDE THE POSSIBILITY OF SPECTACULAR CHANGES IN THE BALANCE OF POWER AND INTEREST CENTRES. THUS, IT IS BECOMING OBVIOUS THE SHIFT OF FOCUS FROM THE TRANSATLANTIC SPACE TO WARDS THE PACIFIC ZONE. IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND TODAY’S TRENDS IT IS NECESSARY TO PROCEED TO A DIACHRONISTIC INTERPRETATION, NAMELY TO START WITH THE INCIPIENT STRUCTURING FORMS OF THE INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM. SECURITY IS BOTH A STATE OF THINGS AND A MECHANISM THIS FACT COMPLETING FLEXIBILITY IN CONCEPTS BUT MOSTLY IN THE STEPS TO TAKE TOWARDS IMPROVING THE REFERENCE BACKGROUND AND IN KEEPING CONTROL UPON CONFLICT CENTRES, RISKS OR THREATS. THE SHIFT OF THE WORLD GRAVITY CENTRE TOWARDS THE PACIFIC, AS WELL AS THE CHANGE FROM UNILATERALISM TO MULTI -POLARIZATION ALONG WITH THE CRISES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF EURO ATLANTIC SPACE MAY BE UNDERSTOOD AS INVITATIONS TO A MECHANISM OF REGIONAL -GLOBAL SECURITY, AS IT IS DEFINED AND ACCEPTED BY THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY.
