佐藤栄作 受賞論文集

in the mid-1940s. Unlike the low-profile General Assembly working groups on UNreform in the mid-to-late 1990s, the conference could generate ideas among diversesectors of society concerning an improved system of global governance. Setting adeadline for such a conference may generate the political will to deliberate uponthe best of those ideas. Ratifying and enacting the new system over the next 5 to 7years could build on the imaginative thinking and excitement accompanying the newmillennium.The power of a Charter Review Conference to advance contemporary thinkingabout the future of the United Nations is especially strong considering that such aprocess is not subject to veto by the permanent members of the Security Council.Even if all five permanent Security Council members remain adamantly opposedto convening such a conference, they would still have to participate. Once thedialogue on Charter revision commences, the magnitude and indiscriminate natureof global challenges facing an ill-equipped United Nations will become fully apparent.Increasingly, it will prove politically difficult for any world power to insist onpreserving the UN Charter’s present structure.While the opportunity to deliberate about the UN Charter is extraordinarilysignificant in a rapidly changing international environment, it is important thatpolicymakers avoid the possibility of focusing solely on recomposition of the SecurityCouncil. Restructuring the Security Council only through the amendment processesof Article 108 would simply change the actors without rewriting the play, essentiallyleaving in place the global structures created a half century ago. Moreover,implementing Article 108 for this purpose would likely diffuse the momentum for acomprehensive Charter Review process under Article 109.34
