The author analyzes how investment in weaponry diverts essential resources from healthcare, education, and social justice, enriching a few companies while impoverishing millions. A pacifist plea that defends diplomacy, cooperation, and development as the only paths toward real human security, based on guaranteed rights and cohesive societies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book addresses the fundamental contradiction of a Europe that, having emerged from the ashes of two world wars with the promise of never repeating them, is now heading toward a rearmament that betrays its own founding principles. Through a rigorous analysis, Fernando Cabal dismantles the narrative that presents the accumulation of weaponry as a guarantee of peace, demonstrating that, in reality, it fuels distrust and the arms race. The work examines how every euro invested in weaponry is a euro taken away from the fight against poverty, climate change, and inequality, and how the glorification of military power systematically weakens dialogue and mediation. The author proposes an alternative based on human security, understood not as destructive capacity, but as a guarantee of rights, opportunities, and social cohesion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritique of rearmament as a false security solution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe diversion of public resources to the arms industry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe contradiction between European founding principles and current militarism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePeace as a construction based on diplomacy, cooperation, and development\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHuman security versus traditional military security\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers interested in political philosophy, peace and conflict resolution studies, as well as citizens concerned about the current geopolitical course.
