However, the term may take different meanings depending on the area or field to which it refers, generally Security means “The state of well-being that humans perceive and enjoy”.

Crime and violence is rampant throughout the world. Laws exist to maintain order and peace and provide for the safety and well-being of all members of society. Acts that disrupt and threaten this system of order are deemed criminal in nature and are punishable by law. It is believed that criminal types operate from a self-centered framework that shows little, if any regard, for the safety and well-being of others (Merton, 2006).

The outcome of cultural awareness and cultural sensitivity is cultural safety (Berg, 2010). In practicing cultural safety, it is not really expected that health care workers will know all cultures; it is acknowledging and respecting people regardless of their differences and beliefs (Hughes & Farrow, 2006). Moreover, nurses and other health professionals create cultural safe practice when the patients feel safe, respected and understood (Skellet, 2012), as well as if there is a shared understanding and acknowledgement of the unique identity and diversity. Health workers should always consider the cultural and historical background of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians, because practicing cultural safety is significant to
Throughout crime in Australia, a noticeable increase in crime occurred between the 1970’s to the 1990’s but has declined to a stable rate of crime which is similar trend in America. However, crime itself is often complex to define due to the variety of crime. Therefore, it is difficult to accurately measure crime and if crime cannot be measured efficiently and it proposes concerns of whether crime in Australia is stable or not. Although Australia’s system of collecting crime data is striving to be as accurate as possible, the media will often manipulate the data which misleads the Australian public of crime stability. Inclusively, through gaining an understanding of defining crime, accurately measuring data and comparing Australia’s crime data

Crime is everywhere, as we begin to realize each and everyday crime begins to become normalized. Each and every day the news about crime is shared, as normal as the morning weather.

The society lately faces a range of intimidations in the people's everyday life. Muggings, express kidnapping, antisocial behavior feature an inventory of risks and threats that commit the levels of safety. Along with, the unpredictability of criminal opportunities instills the dissemination of fear and tensions. Thus, for Pain & Smith (2008), 'such exclusionary tensions and effects spill into everyday life, exacerbating social and spatial disparities, and contributing to the demonisation of those social groups who are at the sharp end of fear' (p.01).

Fear of crime among college students has been examined, throughout various researches in every measure. Men and women both have different outlooks on the way their fear is determined. Woman usually are stalked more by people that they know or usually are harassed, while men are afraid of the lack of protection that they tend to have or therefore not fear but the ability to try and stay strong. The problem is the fact that fears cannot be determined or corrected for that matter. In this study undergraduates from Virginia State University took a survey to measure their perception and fear of crime. Some students may feel like they are protected by campus police on and around campus but most will not be able to trust in campus police. The

It relates to course by pointing out some of the negative aspect relating to the compilation of international crime statistics.

Furthermore, discrepancies seem rather inevitable with the compilation international crime
Australia’s national security landscape has changed significantly throughout its history, especially through the Howard, Rudd and Gillard years when fuelled by globalisation, terrorism and widespread economic turmoil. However, despite the varying nature of the threat landscape over the past century Australia has not until recently documented a combined, singular, national approach to national security policy. Both the 2008 National Security Statement and the 2013 Australian National Security Strategy have sought to fill a critical gap in Australia’s policy theatre however the efficacy of these documents to achieve these goals is heavily debated. This paper critically analyses the 2013 National Security Strategy, through
The importance given to certain crimes in the daily newspapers and other media sources shows us proof to the fact that crime is a topic that has the public’s interest and is a focus of their worries (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2001). It goes on to discuss the fact that crime as reported on by the media increases the public’s levels of fears and that there is little or no correlation to actual levels of violent crime in our society today.
