The Secretary-General is in a unique position to broker amongst BRICS nations and between BRICS and other fora. BRICS nations represent significant portions of the world’s…

The United Nations, since its implementation in 1945, has done much to try regulate international relations, and increase living standards globally. However, there is severe, ideological and structural limitations to the UN’s ability to regulate states and enforce its regulations, rendering it largely ineffective. Initially, the UN was created to be a mediator between states in order to conduct international relations in a relatively peaceful way, and establish a system which can deploy…

The organization closely matches Kant’s proposals, especially in his…

first policy, indicating that the United States should stay out of wars that we have no place in.
