Summary
This article explores potential solutions to enhance global security governance and overcome delivery failures, examining both the creation of a new organization and the adaptation of the existing UN framework. It also considers the potential resistance to reform from Security Council members.
Addressing Delivery Failures in Global Security Governance
Highlights
Proposed Solutions for Delivery Failures
The paper examines two primary solutions to address delivery failures in global security governance. The first proposes establishing a new organization with an expanded mandate and improved structure, potentially incorporating regional security aspects. The second suggests adapting the current UN framework and mandate to better suit modern challenges.
Resistance to Reform and Future Prospects
A significant challenge to reform is the potential for Security Council members to defend the existing status quo. Despite this, member states are unlikely to dismantle the current organization unless a profoundly disruptive event, akin to a world war, arises.
