- Abstract:
There have been enormous changes in the world order over the last 15 years, which have seen the United States, closely supported by the United Kingdom, become more unilateral in its actions, and in doing so damaging the United Nations. Attempts to create an ethical dimension in foreign policy have failed. The brief consensus after 9/11 has been lost in the war against terror, whilst other more appropriate measures to diminish the risks of terrorism, such as creating greater equity in trade and meeting the UN millennium goals, have been left to one side. Iraq and the ongoing failure to resolve the Palestinian issues have left the world a less safe place. The need for the UN to establish itself as a dominant force for global justice is paramount. To do so there must be reform, particularly of the Security Council.
