==== The category of human ==== Recent feminist critiques of Human Security often find difficulties with the concept and categorization of "Human". This categorization is made under the influence of certain value systems which are inherently exclusive by their nature. For instance, the liberal definition of "human" is: someone that is independent and capable of making decisions for themselves.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Nussbaum|first1=Martha C.|title=Sex and Social Justice|date=24 August 2000|publisher=Oxford University Press|isbn=978-0195112108}}</ref> This definition is problematic because it excludes persons who are not independent, such as persons with disabilities, from human security rights. If Human Security was to be entirely inclusive it would need to challenge the current definition of "human" on which it operates and acknowledge that different abilities also require rights.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Marhia|first1=Natasha|title=Some humans are more Human than Others: Troubling the 'human' in human security from a critical feminist perspective|journal=Security Dialogue|date=February 11, 2013|volume=44|issue=1|pages=19β35|doi=10.1177/0967010612470293|s2cid=145219768}}</ref>
