Multidimension of economic security in the 21st century - Mariusz Tomczyk

The pursuit of development is a natural component of every economy, and each society strives to function in a dynamically developing economy. Society and economy are interconnected, and thus, at least to some extent, they form a unity. However, one of the conditions that must be met for the economy to develop is security. In general, security is perceived as a state of non-threat and a state of peace, as well as certainty that nothing will happen that could disturb this state. Economic security (in addition to political and military security) is considered by many scientists to be a key element of the stable functioning and development of the economy of a given country. Safety is a basic value necessary for the stable development of every organism, including an economic entity, which can be perceived as a kind of organism. Security, like any state, is not a constant value and is not free from threats. The contemporary perception of security consists in the need to perceive these threats as complex, multifaceted phenomena that are often external.
