abstract = {This investigation presents the perspective that Spanish postgraduate students have on
security. The data compiled here encompass the results of a research study involving Spanish
Master’s students with backgrounds in international law and international relations. This study aims
to conceptualize what security means for young adults, with the concept of security being extracted
from their own opinions. This is a qualitative investigation of students who are pursuing their
studies in international and security fields. In their coursework, they study matters related to security,
and therefore their opinions are well grounded. The results indicate that the concept of security is
progressively more ambiguous and distant from those of conventional standards, where personal,
economic, environmental, and border security (as well as other aspects of security) intertwine. The
concept itself is increasingly more ambiguous and closer to the idea of human security. Young people
have a greater perception of insecurity, and they demand more to ensure that the State and different
institutions fulfill their responsibility of guaranteeing security. They also feel more committed to
participating in different aspects that construct their very open sense of security.},
