ECONOMIC SECURITY

This study examines the interrelation between economic security and living standards among countries with the highest global performance in these domains. Drawing on methodological frameworks, it integrates theoretical and empirical approaches to evaluate how robust economic security mechanisms—measured through composite indices, macroeconomic stability indicators, and income distribution metrics—correlate with high standards of living. The analysis spans leading economies recognized by the United Nations and other international organizations, with comparative benchmarks including GDP per hour, human freedom, and socio-economic resilience indicators. Using a multi-country dataset, the research identifies patterns showing that nations successfully balancing economic growth with social equity exhibit both higher resilience to external shocks and stronger internal stability. The work also highlights gaps in specific economic security indicators for certain countries, underlining the need for targeted policy interventions.
