ABSTRACT
On the grounds of social sciences, security is treated as the need of various entities,
including the state. In the realistic paradigm, states are considered as the basic
participants in international relations, neorealists – especially representatives of
structural realism – claim that the state’s behavior is determined by the rules of
the international system in which the states participate. Security is the main goal of
foreign policy of states, achieved in an uncompromising manner using diplomatic and force means. The distribution of power (capabilities) in the international
system is essential, and states in their security policies apply two basic strategies
of balancing and bandwagoning. Neorealistic theories show an increasing usefulness
to the analysis of state security and international security in the conditions of
reconfiguration of international order in the 21st century.
