Security Based Approach to Development (SBA) is a new vision to development by addressing security and development issues simultaneously. It merges the global security issues with the Rights Based and Needs Based approaches. The book provides an in-depth analysis of Identity and Power. In today’s context identity and security issues are two sides of the coin. SBA has recognized the issue of ‘personal identification’ as a pre-requisite to empowerment. Analysis attributes the deteriorating law-and-order, rigged elections, corruption, socioeconomic disparity, harboring of terrorists, lack of transparency and poor governance to lack of personal identification systems. The book stresses that unless the development investments and insecurity issues are addressed simultaneously the global development agenda will be further delayed.
