Center for Global Security and Democracy
Rutgers University

The Center for Global Security and Democracy promotes the study of the complex relationship between the provision of individual and collective security, and the building and maintenance of democratic political institutions. The Center’s goals are to enhance our understanding of how secure, democratic societies and international systems are created, and to develop practical initiatives for constructing and deepening such democratic and security-producing arrangements on the local and global level. The Center’s activities marry theory building with active fieldwork, bringing scholars, students, policy makers, civic leaders, and ordinary citizens together in practical efforts to analyze, design, and build functioning political institutions. The Center is directed by Professor Edward Rhodes.
