Weapons trade as a security challenge of modern society
Abstract: Security problems nowadays are mainly refered to security challenges related to certain social, political and criminological phenomena. Security has been disrupted globally by many events such as migrant processes, political crises, pandemics of infectious diseases, but disrupted security is constantly badly affected by the large number of illegal weapons that are uncontrolled in free circulation on black illegal markets. Weapons circulating in illegal flows commit the largest number of crimes in the world, commit terrorist acts and such weapons pose the greatest threat to the security, both of individuals and global level. Arms control, proper and up-to-date arms registration and monitoring of citizens' weapons must be imperative for every national state in the world. Each copy of the weapon must be registered with the competent authority, as well as information on the owners of the weapon. Thanks to these up-to-date databases, it is easier to find potential perpetrators of crimes, although most committed criminal acts worldwide are carried out with weapons from illegal sources.
