The security dilemma asserts that both strength and weakness in national security can be provocative to other nations. If a nation is too strong, this can be provocative since most means of self-protection simultaneously menace others. On the other hand, if a nation is too weak, great dangers arise if an aggressor believes that the status quo powers are weak in capability or resolve." Thus, directly and indirectly, both strength and weakness can upset the balance of security in international relations. This concept is also referred to as the spiral model. This term is used in international relations and refers to a situation in which actions by a state intended to heighten its security, such as increasing its military strength or making alliances, can lead other states to respond with similar measures, producing increased tensions that create conflict, even when no side really desires it.
