Traditional security policy has a third component called the balance of power.  When countries look around them, they see that some countries are bigger and stronger. This is a clue to who might be a threat in the future. In the traditional conception of security, the greatest danger to a country is from military threats. Non-traditional notions of security go beyond military threats to include a wide range of threats and dangers affecting the conditions of human existence. They begin by questioning the traditional referent of security.
