“…According to De Silva, the UNSC should be enlarged to be more representative." (Andersson, 2000;Özev & Erdoğan, 2020) It is now clear that the UN Security Council's 15-member structure, established in the 1940s, is inadequate today. At that time, five permanent members were only ten per cent of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).…”

“…In addition to the efforts of the P5 countries to maintain the status quo, historical and regional competitive relations between potential members, and the zerosum game approaches impede the efforts to reform the UNSC. Potential members agree neither on who will enter the UNSC nor on which of the new members will have veto power (Özev & Erdoğan, 2020).…”

Owing to the growing threats of pandemics like the Corona Virus (COVID-19) among other emerging infectious diseases, terrorism, genocide, human trafficking, and the proliferation of small arms and light weapons among others, the study assessed the United Nations (UN) on the collective agreement in maintaining global peace and stability. In achieving these, the study adopted the descriptive research design and derived relevant data through the use of semi-structured interviews with respondents randomly chosen from the five permanent member states of the UN Security Council (UNSC). The system theory was employed to provide a clear understanding of the subject matter and the need for institution and collectiveness in the management and sustainability of world peace. However, findings revealed that a restructured UNSC is necessary to give room for a more responsive and all-inclusive organization. This brings to the fore the importance of collective agreements in a multilateral world to collectively and efficiently tackle the contemporary threats to world peace and stability.

“…The desire to protect the interests of states inspired the creation of the League of Nations in 1919 and the United Nations in 1945. The United Nations, which was formed as a result of the traumatic experience of World War II, has taken its place in history as an institution that synthesizes power balances and holds the concept of an international political shelter (Ozev & Erdogan, 2019). Thus, the composition of the international structure and the outcomes experienced by humanity aided in determining the characteristics of the United Nations.…”

The United Nations global conflict management strategy is based on certain fundamental assumptions that require serious re-examination in the twenty-first century. This study is focused on the United Nations Security Council, its global peace maintenance responsibility mandated by the United Nations Charter and the protracted Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The doctrinal approach was employed for this study. This is with aim to assess the long-standing violence between Israel and Palestine and a possible way of effective management and possible resolution, which is the sole responsibility of the United Nations Security Council. The study shed more light on the role of the Security Council, its efforts and its challenges that are hampering warring nations from settling their disputes. The study concluded that, although the United Nations Security Council has played vital roles in instituting global peace, which is the fundamental principle of macroeconomic stability, the reforms of the Council is at the top of the most pressing global political issues facing the international community. Therefore, among the recommendations of this study is that, the reformation of the Council to mirror the present globalized world political order is of utmost significance in order to provide room for effective regional or continental representation, just as a representative government is well suited for a federating country. This would enable effective representation via regional or continental powers creating a platform for feasibly effective conflict management and possible resolution of interstate conflicts.
