Objectives and Contextualisation
It is about showing different aspects of security from the point of view of the administrative intervention, whether regulated or self-regulated, in order to prevent risks or dangers to achieve comprehensive prevention. Sectors such as domicile, public domain, workplace, public and private transport, hospitality, etc. are selected. and analyzes the regulations, the legal instruments and the obligations of the citizens so that our specialists in prevention are prepared to meet the requirements of the Public Administrations.
The concepts of worker, labor contract, trader, entrepreneur, mercantile societies, etc. are studied. in order to find solutions that are suitable for open administrative procedures.

At the same time, a comparison will be made with the European securitymodel in which the possession ofweapons for the defense of the citizen is a monopoly of the security forces and bodies. Once exposed the two most representative models, it will be evaluated which system offers more integral security.
