The United Nations is Not Effective

Sitting on the swings at an elementary playground, one may witness a group of boys take another boy’s lunch money. Many moral ideas come to mind, but does one actually think that the single boy will be able to ask the group for his money back? Will the victim be able to say “Stop please, let’s be friends,” and propose that they eat at the same lunch table?

The groups of boys represent a strong threat, similar Iraq’s possession of nuclear weaponry, being a threat to national security. A realist would suggest that the boy would be able to gain respect from the group if he showed his strength and determination to keep his money. On the other hand a pluralist would suggest that the boy could have his father intervene, telling the boys not too tease his son, and all would be well the next day at school. Hopefully not from experience, all should realize that the boy would only be tormented further for his father’s intervention and nothing would be accomplished. The role of the father is similar to the roles played by Hans Blix and Dr. Mohammed al Baradei as United Nations’ weapon inspectors. The United Nations should be seen as an ineffective organization that has ample chances to improve and enforce resolutions


Directly opposing the realist perspective, pluralists see the concept of national security as concerning the “security of groups and individuals” compared to the “security of [the] state and territory” (Viotti and Kauppi 25). These differences show the variety of concepts of war.

If Iraq were to reject the demand that it begin destroying its entire stock of Al Samoud 2 short-range missiles by March 1, that could help the Bush administration win sympathy for a new Security Council resolution authorizing force. The missiles were ordered destroyed because they exceeded the 92-mile range limit established under the cease-fire terms of the Persian Gulf War in 1991. Mr. Blix’s March 1 deadline for their destruction coincides with his next report to the Security Council on Iraq’s compliance (“Iraq Seeks Talks”).

An image of world politics that emphasizes that multiplicity of international actors-states, international organizations, and transnational organizations-challenging the realist preoccupation with the state. Pluralist do not view the state as a unitary, rational actor, but rather as a battleground for conflicting bureaucratic and other interests, subject to the pressures of both domestic and transnational interest groups (Viotti and Kauppi 508).
