Discussion

Given below are two statements, one labelled as Assertion (A) and the other labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A) : Social movements concerned with peace, environment and women promote a vision of International Security based on people.
Reason (R) : This is important in terms of evolving a richer concept of security.
Codes :

  • A.Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B.Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • C.(A) is true and (R) is false.
  • D.(A) is false and (R) is true.

Answer: A

Both statements are correct and the reason explains the assertion, so (A) is the keyed option. Peace, environmental and women's movements promote a people-centred view of security, and this is important in developing a richer concept of security that goes beyond the military security of states, which is the line taken in critical security studies and by human security advocates. Option (B) agrees that both are correct but denies the explanatory link. Option (C) calls the reason false and option (D) calls the assertion false; neither holds, since the assertion describes a recognised current of thought.
