Editing Security (section)

=== Capabilities ===
The means by which a referent provides for security (or is provided for) vary widely. They include, for example:
* ''Coercive capabilities'', including the capacity to project coercive power into the environment (e.g., [[aircraft carrier|aircraft carriers]], [[handgun|handguns]], [[firearms]]);
* ''Protective systems'' (e.g., [[Lock (security device)|lock]], [[fence]], [[wall]], [[antivirus software]], [[Anti-aircraft warfare|air defence system]], [[armour]])
* ''Warning systems'' (e.g., alarm, [[radar]])
* ''Diplomatic and social action'' intended to prevent insecurity from developing (e.g. conflict prevention and transformation strategies); and
* ''Policy'' intended to develop the lasting economic, physical, ecological, and other conditions of security (e.g., [[Economics|economic]] reform, [[Ecology|ecological]] protection, [[Demilitarisation|progressive demilitarization]], [[militarization]]).
