The United Nations Organization: (In)Securing Global Peace and Security

Saving succeeding generations from the scourge of war was the main
motivation for creating the United Nations. Given the ongoing
conflicts, wars and terrorist attacks today one is forced to ask: Is
there Hope for International Peace and Security? Where have the
safeguards gone to? Has the United Nations become powerless in the face
of absence of the “safeguards”? In this book, Professor Tatah Mentan
examines the transformation in UN peace and security operations,
analysing its changing role and structure. Tatah Mentan argues that the
enemy of peace and security in the global system is the dictatorship of
predatory bailed out monopoly capitalism that tells us that building war
ships is more important than building alternate energy infrastructure.
The real enemies are therefore the publicly bailed-out monopolies, Big
Media, Big Pharma, Big Oil, the Military Industrial Complex, etc. that
deny the truth about conflicts and insecurity. As he emphasises, the
enemies are those who refuse to think critically, not being
intellectually curious, and accepting the supremacist, fascist, and
misgovernance that is reducing the world collectively to being cogs in a
diabolical machine of neoliberal global capitalism.
