Trang 3INTRODUCTION
1 Rationale for the study
National security is a fundamental and important issue of a nation and is a prerequisite for the nation to develop and flourish Protecting national security plays a crucial role and constitutes the task of the entire Party, people and army Being fully aware of its significance, our Party and State have always determined: “Strengthening national defense and security
is an important and constant task of the Party, the State and the entire people, with the People's Army and the People’s Public Security being the core forces” [41, p.45]
Each nation and people, through their development, always adopted different methods, ways and measures to ensure national security effectively on the overall scope, as well as in each field Ensuring national security is acknowledged to be an extremely difficult task, and it is also the honor that the Party, the State and the people assign to the public security forces - to assume the primary responsibility national security maintenance The leaders, commanders, officers and comrades of the whole force always grasp the spirit, “The People's Public Security are willing to sacrifice themselves to serve the country and the people”, overcoming all difficulties and successfully completing their assigned duties
Amid complicated changes and fluctuations in the country, the region and the world, exerting multi-dimensional impacts on the national security assurance of the public security force, the renovation in our country, with great and historical achievements, still faces significant difficulties and challenges The economy has not developed sustainably; GDP growth rate is not high, economic structure still has improper aspects and the risks of economic derailing and falling further lagged behind have not been eliminated The security situation of the strategic areas still has the potential of instability The hostile forces escalated their activities of
“peaceful evolution”, riots and subversion in order to remove the leading role of the Party, changing the socialist regime in our country The trend of globalization and revolution in science and technology is advancing rapidly, becoming a direct production force, promoting the development of the knowledge economy, making strong and profound changes in social-political relationships, bringing great benefits to humanity, but also being
Trang 4used by hostile forces, reactionaries and criminals to threaten peace and stability Non-traditional security risks are complicated In order to fulfill the assigned tasks, the reality requires the public security force to be always alert and take effective measures to fight against the false allegations, sabotage political thought as well as activities infringing upon national security in an attempt to place pressure to remove the leadership of the Communist Party and demand multi-party and regime change
Applying the Marxist-Leninist philosophy to dealing with the relationship between objective conditions and subjective factors of the public security force in ensuring national security, first of all, it is required that police officers must be a highly enlightened politician, having a strong political stance, knowledge of law, natural sciences, social sciences and humanities, modern science and technology; having solid professional qualifications, psychological endurance, physical fitness In fact, these requirements are to promote the subjective factor of the public security force in ensuring national security In perception as well as in research, there exist a number of different points of view when presenting the concept of objective and subjective factors; dialectical relationship between subjective and objective factors as well as the role and mechanism of action
of subjective factors in the movement of social laws In the view of national security, most research projects only mention aspects of tasks, responsibilities, powers in ensuring national security in each specific field and mainly related to the public security profession The exploitation of the issue of ensuring national security tasks from the perspective of subjective factors in the current context of the country is still under research
Therefore, a comprehensive, systematic and in-depth study on the promotion of the subjective factor of the public security force in ensuring national security in Vietnam is extremely urgent at the present time
Based on the abovementioned analysis, we choose the topic
“Promoting the role of the subjective factor of the People's Public Security Force in national security protection in Vietnam in present time” for a PhD dissertation, specialized in dialectical materialism and historical materialism

With the above-mentioned issues, it can be seen that, in general, the issue of subjective factors and the role of subjective factors has been mentioned in many different aspects Most authors agreed that the subjective factors are governed and regulated by objective conditions But the subjective factors are relatively independent, which can react and change the objective conditions
