Reasoning with clear ideas and examples in any manner you choose whether separately or integrated, answer the questions bellow indicating the limits and possibilities of justification for the UN as a global police force or negotiation facilitator between hostile or potentially hostile states.
What is the scope of its authority to act as an enforcement institution or negotiation facilitator?
What kinds of international problems does it seek to ameliorate and does the seriousness of these problems warrant a global rather than regional state response?
What are its methods and instruments of containment, enforcement, or persuasion how does it get peoples and states to comply with its dictates or at least restrain themselves?
What are the chief limits of its ability to act as a legitimate global police authority or negotiation facilitator? Why does Mearsheimer believe that international institutions like the UN offer a ‘false promise’ of greater security than the current state system can offer?
