After reading on Global Governance, answer the following questions. Each

question is worth 5 points. 

1.Why is global governance multi-faceted?

-It is multi-faceted because there are many aspects that is needed to

considered in different countries. Like between and among cultures,
states, intergovernmental organizations, and nongovernmental
organizations, those needed to deal with its norms and rules to settle
everything in order. As there are many issues rising globally, the
international government need to work with it equally in terms of
economy, territory issues, health and etc. It is multi-faceted as it is not
focusing in one country government, instead it is into consideration of
many that makes the world affairs systematic, secured and formulaic.

2. How do international organizations take on "lives of their

own"?

- International organizations take on lives on their own as they have their

independency in actions, policies, function and purpose. Those are looking
into the bigger picture and not making a decision for the sake of few
countries. They have their own powers that managing the member-states
countries for a certain purpose. Like for environment, safety, health and
etc. that is beneficial to everyone. As mention, they have the power to
diffuse norms, fix meanings and create powerful global standards which is
for the cost of all not just for the interest of the states itself.

3. What are the challenges faced by the United Nations in

maintaining global security?

-United Nations main task is to maintain international peace and security

and make a friendly relationship between the countries but still there are
few conflicts. One of it is when one of the P5 leaders wanted to veto a
certain resolution it leads them to become powerless to stop a war.
Especially when the country involve in the war is on five permanent
members of the Security Council which they usually having deadlock veto.
They are lacking of meaningful progress as talks between the countries
are difficult to take place their platforms. Most of their resolutions just
became dead letters which making them a hard time of maintaining the
global security of the countries. The contrasting moral structures of social
behavior in different member-states complicate the formulation of a
normative standard that can be applicable to all.
