The United Nations Security Council is the cornerstone of international diplomacy, charged with the task of maintaining world peace and stability. The UNSC is tasked with imposing sanctions and undertaking peacekeeping missions. The mandates passed by this committee involve authorising military interventions and implementing sanctions to ensure global peace.
Agenda: Impact of private military security contractors and foreign military bases on global security.
The agenda delves into the complex roles of private military contractors (PMCs) and foreign military bases in modern conflicts. PMCs, often operating with limited oversight, can blur the lines between state objectives and corporate interests, potentially compromising national sovereignty and escalating violence in conflict zones. Their involvement raises ethical and legal concerns, especially when lacking accountability mechanisms. Similarly, foreign military bases, while sometimes enhancing security, can undermine the host nation’s sovereignty and fuel regional tensions
These bases may also support authoritarian regimes, complicating efforts toward democratic governance. The agenda encourages critical analysis of these non-state actors, focusing on their implications for sovereignty, human rights, and regional stability. Students will explore contemporary security challenges, including the difficulties of regulating and holding accountable entities that operate beyond traditional warfare frameworks.
