Abstract

Realities of international relations in the case of challenges to modern security
should be regarded through the prism of different theories and methodologies. In
the current article the author tries to analyze foreign policy of Great Britain (22d of
November 2015 National Security strategy came into force after six years without it) in the sphere of international security with the usage of main theoretical provisions of securitization theory. The subsistent article contains securitization concepts which were designed by founding fathers of this theory — Barry Buzan and Olli Viver. Also, Russian political scientists — Vyacheslav Morozov, Andrey Makarychev and Olga Yakushina are mentioned in this article.
