Abstract: | The focal point of the topic at hand and indeed the main focus of this dissertation as a whole, is finding useful and objectively applicable solutions to the perplexing conundrum that is introducing a new and more effective way of thinking, the eventual introduction of which has already been recognised as an unavoidable necessity worldwide, in order to preserve both our existence and that of the planet we inhabit, into a world marked by global insecurity and periled by ever more complex threats to security, security problems and challenges. The main methods used, taking into account the integral nature of research, were the following: dialectic method, method of comparative analysis, method of comparative historical analysis, anthropological method, sociological method and the axiological-deontological approach as a research method. This microsociological approach, consisting of a semi-structured interview, a case study and involving the analysis of secondary sources, gives further credence to my findings, which were consistent with both the main and the working hypotheses. The impetus for the research, its aims and the gotten results all substantiate the need for more applicable military ethics and their integration into the Slovenian military institution. This realisation is also the key conclusion drawn from my dissertation. It is wholly comparable to worldwide aims of Agenda 2030, for sustainable development and for an inclusive and secure future society. The necessity for their introduction and their effectiveness also find support in the doctrine of contemporary philosophers, whose works deal with ethics and morality, who strive towards the return of ethics to the realm of substance and real-world problems, their own comparative findings being, that such applicable military ethics have already been established in several countries and alliances of the world. My dissertation, titled APPLIED MILITARY ETHICS FOR INCLUSIVE AND SAFE SOCIETY OF THE FUTURE, with its findings, offers a new and more efficient approach towards strengthening existing ethics of the Slovenian armed forces, on each and every level of their normative structure, on both the inward focused front of national security and defence and on the front of internationaThe focal point of the topic at hand and indeed the main focus of this dissertation as a whole, is finding useful and objectively applicable solutions to the perplexing conundrum that is introducing a new and more effective way of thinking, the eventual introduction of which has already been recognised as an unavoidable necessity worldwide, in order to preserve both our existence and that of the planet we inhabit, into a world marked by global insecurity and periled by ever more complex threats to security, security problems and challenges.
