Abstract

The deterioration of traditional environmental problems has threaten the human security in worldwide and the environmental security has come into being. Inrecent research status of environmental security, the authors put a new research concept that researching the environmental security problems in perspective of macro-security. Environmental security, considered as one of the important branches of macro-security, is not a unilateral question of safety or environment, but a nontraditional safety question which breaks through traditional safety conception. To understand environmental security, people have to understand the concept of nontraditional safety and establish the concept of broad safety. The broad safety essence is that paying attention to rise the deterioration of narrow environmental problem and its intimidation to human being to the generalized environmental problem in the field of ecology, resource and disaster in the view of security, has clarified the real and core scientific question of environmental security research and then will be meaningful and more valuable, requiring that the research workers constantly improves and perfects to concept of macro-security.
