Abstract This article reviews the positions of some authors about the concept of human security in security studies. Considers a look at this concept in instrumental terms. Seen this way, proposes to look at it not so much from what it says when it is merely stated, but from the concrete uses, the purposes for which certain actors have used it and the effects that such exploitation has produced in fields like the political or the academic. It is about a documentary review that aims to place some of the debates that the concept of human security has raised in the academic and political fields at international level, as well as the appropriation that it had in local terms for a local case such as the Human Security Observatory from Medellin. For this, on one hand, a selection of articles was made based on the criteria of Scopus bibliometric analysis and, on the other, some semi-structured interviews were conducted in the city of Medellín. The article concludes with comments on the importance of understanding that, as happens with any other concept in politics, the meaning of human security is necessarily linked to its political uses. |
