Annotation The article is devoted to the analysis of modern interpretations of national and religious security within the framework of philosophical concepts of the West. The aim of the study is to conceptualize modern philosophical ideas about security. To solve it, the authors use the methodology of phenomenological and hermeneutic analysis of texts, historical-cultural and comparative analysis. The novelty of the study is due to the fact that the current trends in the development of the philosophy of security here are associated with the desire to understand the essence of security as a complex system, the structure of which consists of a number of subsystems, including man, society, power, international community. The authors prove that the provisions’ synthesis of these concepts provides the basis for the formation of an integral concept of security, taking into account the concepts’ provisions that indicate the material, ontological content of threats from the surrounding globalizing world and the mental content of threats designed by consciousness in response to the increasing influence of modern processes of informatization and virtualization. According to the authors, within the framework of the integral concept of security on the basis of the principle of complementarity it is necessary to synthesize the provisions of the national-state concept of security, concept of the “world community”, concept of “soft power” and the provisions of postmodern concepts devoted to modern threats, protection from which is possible only within the framework of the collective security system, taking into account measures of protection from external and mental threats of the person, society to the state
