Globally, People Point to ISIS and Climate
Change as Leading Security Threats
Concern about cyberattacks, world economy also widespread
People around the globe identify ISIS and
climate change as the leading threats to
national security, according to a new Pew
Research Center survey. The survey asked
about eight possible threats. While the level
and focus of concern varies by region and
country, ISIS and climate change clearly
emerge as the most frequently cited security
risks across the 38 countries polled.
ISIS is named as the top threat in a total of 18
countries surveyed – mostly concentrated in
Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the United
States. A substantial number of these
countries have endured deadly terrorist
attacks claimed by the Islamic militant group.
In 13 countries, mostly in Latin America and
Africa, publics identify global climate change
as the topmost threat. It is the second-ranked
concern in many other countries polled.
Cyberattacks from other countries and the
condition of the global economy are named as
major threats by global medians of 51% each. Cyberattacks are the top concern in Japan and
second-highest concern in places such as the U.S., Germany and the UK, where there have been a
number of high-profile attacks of this type in recent months.
People in Greece and Venezuela view the health of the international economy as the leading threat
to their countries, perhaps reflecting these nations’ economic struggles in recent years. Many
countries surveyed in the Middle East and Latin America name economic turmoil as their secondgreatest
concern.
